Despite their relative youth, they have been referred to as "reggae royalty". Having grown up in their father's music studio in the U.S. the group, then consisting of eight of the children, made their first appearance at Reggae Sunsplash in Jamaica. They were subsequently signed by MCA and released their debut album Miracles in 1994. They have since criticized Miracles as being overly pop-influenced.
A year later the family moved to Denroy's homeland of Jamaica. In this period, three family members left the group. In Jamaica, Morgan Heritage began working with famed reggae producers Bobby Dixon and Lloyd James, resulting in the release of the critically acclaimed album Protect Us Jah (1997), followed by One Calling (1998), and the spiritually-inclined Don't Haffi Dread (1999). They released two albums by "The Morgan Heritage Family and Friends", and the Live in Europe! album recorded on their 2000 tour. Morgan Heritage toured in Europe again following the release of their 2001 album More Teachings... Their sixth studio album, Three in One, came out in 2003. They have released two DVD`s (Live In London and Live Over Europe 2003) with good success and "Full Circle" (2005)
There is a sibling band called L.M.S which is more hip-hop influenced without a band, that often tours with them and is a part of their family, as well as their father Denroy Morgan.
They are one of the most influential reggae bands today, returned to Jamaica and opened studio and realised 3 complilations of "Morgan Heritage Family and Friends" creating their own rhytms.
They have cooperated with most reggae bands and DJs (MCs) of today including Capleton, Luciano, Gentleman, Beres Hammond etc.

So Much Confusion
Morgan Heritage Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Fire fear all of those that mislead Jah children.
But they'll be soon cutten down like the grass
And with the green herb of Rastafari.

So much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception
So running Jah children in his doctrin, ooii,

So much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception
So running Jah children in his doctrin, oh Lord,

For so long I have been a witness
Of the stumbling of our people,
Because we fail to recognize the truth, Lord help,
That Rastafari is the king of chritianity in this time,
Man I am testing the return of Jesus Christ, oh Lord,

I have seen the rising and the fall of many people,
All of whom been called by the spirit of Jah,
Drivting away from the devinity of Haile Selassi,
Going about to exulting their own false illusion,

Causing so much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception,
So running Jah children in his doctrin, ooii,

So much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception,
So running Jah children in his doctrin, oh Lord.

The true Rastaman will tell you he is the ancient Christian,
Throught the line of Ethiopia,
We find this truth in our lives,
King Ras Tafari gave us the teachings,
But some don't understand it,
And to try to understand it,
Some even try to recreate it,

So there is so much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception
So running Jah children in his doctrin, ooii,

So much, so much confusion,
So much, so much disconception, disconception
So running Jah children in his doctrin,

And while we are wasting our time,
The Ethiopians calling o

ut for their queen,
And Babylon is trying to extinguish the light,
But we must hold on to the truth and fight,
For Rastafari is our king and guide,
And we must always stay by his side,
Despite the confusion and deception,
We must stay true to our connection.

The lyrics of Morgan Heritage's "So Much Confusion" speak to the disillusionment and discord within the Rastafarian movement. The opening lines refer to those who "mislead Jah children," suggesting that there are individuals or groups who are spreading false teachings and leading others astray. The line "they'll soon be cut down like the grass" is a metaphor for the inevitable downfall of those who seek to deceive others.

The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes the confusion and misconceptions that exist within the Rastafarian community. The lyrics suggest that many people are being led astray by false doctrine and that the true teachings of Rastafari are being lost in the confusion.

The verses of the song are more introspective, with the singer reflecting on their own experiences and observations within the Rastafarian movement. The final verse highlights the belief among Rastafarians that their faith is a continuation of Christianity, with King Ras Tafari (Haile Selassie I) providing the teachings that guide their spiritual practice.

Overall, the song is a call for unity and a plea for Rastafarians to stay true to their beliefs amidst the confusion and deception that exists within their community.
