Rising artist Jonnie Morris returns with a new hit single titled "Big Stepper". The Detroit based artist is focused on creating music that combines the energy of modern hip-hop with the melodies of the contemporary alternative scene. Jonnie Morris grew up in a musical family. His father was a successful local R&B performer, who sadly passed away when Jonnie was only 5. This led to him seeking comfort and an escape from grief in the sound of music. In particular, Morris quickly discovered hip hop as a fitting outlet to channel his feelings.

Jonnie Morris' latest offering, "Big Stepper",  takes listeners on an emotional ride of pure grit and resilience in the face of sheer adversity and opposition on the road to success. 

A gritty, yet at times dark story of a young man who operates purely out of self defense against any who wish him harm, while also bringing listeners into his world of anger and pain transformed into pure art. 

Jonnie Morris' influences include some of hip-hop’s most iconic luminaries, such as DMX, Notorious B.I.G, Eminem, and Royce Da 5’9. "Big Stepper" is a powerful and uplifting ode to hope and resilience in the face of adversity.

“I’m really excited for everyone to hear this single,” says Morris. “As a songwriter, I try to create music that can empower and encourage people to keep fighting and never give up. That’s what I want people to take away from this track.”

What Will J.T. Hiskey Perform Opening for Blueface? Here’s Our Prediction

Expect “100 Grand” to shake the room, newer records from The Summer Tape 2 to show up, and maybe a few unreleased cuts designed specifically for these Blueface crowds. Hiskey’s sets tend to move fast and hit hard, balancing party records with rawer street-leaning material. If past shows are a clue, this won’t be a low-key opener.See More
