Video: Morray – Trenches

On his latest release, “Trenches,” Morray takes us to his hometown of Fayettevile, NC, to North Street Park, where he’s surrounded by all of his people (and pups!) while he delivers another rap ballad for the streets. “Trenches” is about his love of the ghetto, the hood, and the “people that turn the bad into good.” Morray’s love of his community and communities similar to his is one of my favorite things — he takes any lessons he learned from the streets and turns it into a positive, choosing to be positive for himself and his Fayetteville fam.

Announced last week during an interview with The Breakfast Club, Street Sermons taps into the spiritual uplift and church-trained singing that makes Morray’s brand of hip-hop so unique, taking unflinching looks at Morray’s youthful struggles and indiscretions and examining his motivations to succeed. The upcoming Street Sermons gives a home to “Quicksand,” the rapper’s debut single which currently sits at #85 on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as standout singles like the gospel-inflected “Kingdom,” the hard-nosed betrayal ballad “Switched Up,” and the aspirational “Big Decisions.” Street Sermons releases on April 28th via Pick Six Records/Interscope.
