Early life
Tahj Morgan was born in Columbia, South Carolina.[3] He graduated from high school in 2014. He then went to college for two semesters, but dropped out.[4]
Career
Morgan earned his first production placement on 21 Savage's 2015 mixtape The Slaughter King, on the track "Slime" with Young Nudy.[4]
In March 2019, Morgan produced DaBaby's hit single "Suge", which peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100. Shortly after, he signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV Music Publishing.[3] He later on produced other hit singles, such as "Bop" by DaBaby and "Start wit Me" by Roddy Ricch and Gunna, both of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100. He also was at the Dreamville recording sessions.[5]
Going into 2020, Morgan produced Jack Harlow's breakout single "Whats Poppin", which peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Harlow's first Hot 100 hit, and was certified Platinum by the RIAA.[6] He also earned his first two Grammy nominations for his work on DaBaby's "Suge".[6][7]
In August 2020 he became the first person to curate the music for XXL's 2020 Freshman Class.[8]
Other ventures
Morgan founded the record label BoyMeetSpace in early 2020. Its roster includes record producers 1st Class, Neeko Baby, Desktop, Psilo, Its2Ezzy, AyoThatsKay and Tyreekcc.[9]
Controversy
In July 2020, it was revealed that Morgan was allegedly selling one of American rapper Playboi Carti's unreleased songs for $17,000, whom he previously worked with on his song "@ Meh". He has since denied this claim, explaining that he was "trolling".[10][11]
