"...it's a soulful and sunny affair...Morton builds undeniably catchy songs with a ton of heart. You'll be singing along from the first word to the last, not to mention, his instrumentation is utterly spellbinding. It's a new classic..." - ArtistDirect.com

PJ Morton, Grammy Award-winning producer and writer (India Arie, Jermaine Dupri, LL Cool J) and Maroon 5's keyboardist, has premiered his brand new video for R&B jam "Don't Break My Heart" today on Okayplayer.com here<http://www.okayplayer.com/news/video-premiere-pj-morton-dont-break-my-heart.html>.  The song is from his debut solo EP Following My First Mind, recently released via Lil Wayne's Young Money Entertainment. PJ is currently on tour and will hit cities including Los Angeles on April 19th, New York City on May 1st and Philadelphia on May 3rd before wrapping in Huntsville, AL on May 6th.

Listen to the EP's funky lead single "Heavy" featuring Adam Levine here<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLelnNuCpUU> - the perfect introduction to PJ's feel-good, soulful pop.  Lil Wayne and Jazmine Sullivan are also featured on two of the EP's songs. Fans who like Morton's Facebook fan page<http://www.facebook.com/thepjmorton>, and/or follow his Twitter account<https://twitter.com/#!/PJMORTON> will receive a free download of the new EP for a limited time.

A New Orleans' native, Morton has produced and written with noteworthy artists such as India Arie, Jermaine Dupri, LL Cool J, Jagged Edge, Monica, Ruben Studdard, Musiq Soulchild, Trin-i-tee 5:7 and Amber Bullock. After an audition landed him a keyboardist/vocalist spot in Maroon 5, it was his solo work that garnered him the support of Young Money Entertainment's President, Mack Maine. Maine immediately recognized Morton's talent, along with Cash Money Record's Co-CEOs Ronald "Slim" Williams and Bryan "Birdman" Williams, and Young Money Entertainment's captain Lil Wayne.  Maine signed PJ to his production company, Soothe Your Soul Entertainment and Young Money Entertainment, making PJ the newest addition to the storied Young Money roster.
