Though the name Tanya Morgan sounds like it belongs to a solo female performer, it is in fact a dynamic hip-hop group consisting of two male rappers.
Who is Tanya Morgan ?
The rap duo started in 2003 when producer/MC Von Pea (who lived in Brooklyn) and MC Donwil (who lived in Cincinnati) met online and decided to make an album together.
Later bringing in other ingredients such as Ilyas (who, with Donwil, made up the group Ilwil) and Cincinnati producer Brickbeat, Tanya Morgan miraculously sent demos back and forth electronically only to meet in person after half of the record was complete.
Their full-length debut titled “Moonlighting” was then released in the spring of 2006. — BTE
FUSE TV caught up with the well-respected hip-hop group where they candidly spoke about their journey, and where they’re heading in the future.
Tanya Morgan currently has an EP out You & What Army, available on Itunes or Amazon.
West Coast fans can check them on tour with The Hood Internet and Psalms One.
