Mojo Morgan, a member of the Grammy-winning reggae group Morgan Heritage, has teamed up with dancehall heavyweights Chronic Law, Popcaan, and Pablo YG for a new track that promises to fuse the traditional sounds of reggae with the edgy vibes of modern dancehall.

Mojo Morgan described the track Make It as a testament of resilience and the unbreakable human spirit.

鈥淚t鈥檚 about taking nothing and turning it into something. Ultimately, it is a rags to riches story and each artiste tells this story based on how they see the world through their eyes,鈥 he explained. He said that the track鈥檚 chorus was recorded by the late Morgan Heritage lead singer Peetah Morgan.

鈥淲hen you see the struggle you鈥檝e been through to make it, you have a different value on life. When I wrote the song and sent it to Peetah to sing the chorus for me, little did I know that we only had a little bit of time left together in this realm. So the song has now taken on a new meaning for me,鈥 he said.

Mojo said that he has to 鈥榤ake it鈥 with this project, not just for himself or his beloved brother Peetah 鈥渂ut also the legacy we鈥檝e built as Morgan Heritage with Gramps, Una and Lukes鈥.

The decision to add featured artistes came about following lengthy discussions he had with Popcaan and Chronic Law about working together, and being impressed with a Pablo YG performance.

鈥淚 received a track back at the beginning of 2023 from JA for Life, who is a member of the CTBC Music Group marketing team, and came up with an idea to do an epic collaboration with this generations leaders of dancehall music. So since Popcaan, Chronic Law and myself have been speaking about working together for a while now, this song was the perfect opportunity to make it happen as native sons of St Thomas, Jamaica, where we reside,鈥 he told THE STAR.

Mojo said that after seeing young Pablo YG鈥檚 charismatic performance on Sting in December 2022, he reached out to his publicist Contractor to get in touch with him.

鈥淗e recorded his verse immediately before all other featured artistes. The lyrics of [Pablo YG鈥檚 song] Rich and Richer connected with me as the youngest member in my group, and sometimes being the underdog of sorts. So I knew as a young juvenile he had the ability to tell his version of this story,鈥 he added
