Morray | Before They Were Famous | Quicksand & Dreamland Rapper
Before They Were Famous - A podcast by Michael McCrudden

Before Morray would break onto the scene of hip-hop thanks to his honest and biographical track: Quicksand. Before Morray would receive co-signs from the likes of J. Cole and even DaBaby as the next big thing in the world of rap. Before Morray would have over 8K followers on Twitter, 250K followers on Instagram and over 186K subscribers on YouTube at the time of this recording. Late last year, Morray dropped his song “Quicksand” and just like that, he became your favorite rapper’s, favorite rapper. The single appeared seemingly out of nowhere, but it quickly made its mark thanks in part to Morray’s unique style of combining rap with soulful singing and his willingness to open up about the struggles and triumphs of his youth. In fact, this Fayetteville rapper has already drawn the attention of big leaguers like J. Cole who took to Instagram to let the world know how good Morray’s new track was and that he was going places. On the heels of that shout out came even further exposure when DaBaby took to social media to pay respect to his fellow North Carolina hit song. All of this love and support has taken Morray a bit by surprise but when you get to know him as a person, that humility fits with his persona. After all this is the man who told XXL that what he wants his music to represent for people is “positive influence”.
