“Morgan has a voice that was made to be heard on the radio...inspired songwriting and passionate performances.”
—Billboard Magazine

Native New Yorker Blake Morgan is a recording artist, record producer, and the founder and owner of ECR Music Group, a global music company which operates under an elemental principle unprecedented in the music world: all of its artists and labels own one-hundred percent of their master recordings.

Fighting to realize a dream is in Morgan’s DNA. He seemingly had it all—a multi-album, major-label deal with a music legend in his native New York City. But uniquely, Morgan had the foresight to see he was being taken somewhere he didn’t want to go. “I got off the Titanic just before it hit the iceberg,” says Morgan. “It’s why I survived.” Morgan broke free from the standard corporate music model to build something better: the ideal, modern record label. A decade later he’s done it, and his recent album, Diamonds In The Dark, is the embodiment of that hard-won victory.

Winning David-vs.-Goliath battles for artists’ rights continues to be central to Morgan’s musical ethos. “The idea for #IRespectMusic was born in an Op-ed I wrote for the Huffington Post,” says Morgan. “Once the article went viral it was clear that idea—and those three words—were far more powerful than even I could have expected.”
