Facts

PJ is proof that church isn’t always a building with some walls, benches and crosses in it. It’s the hearts of people that are the real church.
I love this comment
TRUTH!
You sound dumb church isn't music and pj ain't church but they both are inspired
mali carter AMEN !!!
Say Dat!!!
This video deserves a grammy, an oscar, an emmy, an uefa championship, a nobel peace prize I - IIIIT'S TOOGOOD
How Deep is Your Love won a Grammy!
@@herpderpnarwhals1996 It sure did.
No doubt 💯💯💯
I STAND IN AGREEMENT 🖤🖤🖤🖤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It sure DOES!😊 I keep listening over and over again. 😊
Nothing can make me not LOVE PJ Morton.. See you in Miami in August 2024
This album should've got a Grammy ....PERIOD !!!!!
black don't get Grammy there racist
It was just released - it might!
I Wish I Could Like This Comment 100x's
Unfortunately it won't. Unless they consider the Unplugged record for next year. The studio version was considered this past year and it loss.
It was already nominated for best R&B album along with Musiq & Ledisi. Unfortunately a lot of people thought Bruno was better and he beat them out.
1:20 sticking to my guns
6:05 claustrophobic
11:04 religion
16:20 how deep is your love
19:43 first began

HERO.
Epidemic Productions
Thank you!!!!!💖💛💖💖
Yebba needs a Grammy.
Curtis Mayfield Donny Hathaway Stevie Wonder and D'Angelo all wrapped up in one Man 🙌🙌🙌🙌
PREACH SISTA!!!
Curtis was more lyrical
💯
yes...you got it there...x
Marvin Gaye too!
May God continue to bless PJ for putting this whole thing on UA-cam for free! Thank You!!!
Zephaniah Johnson Yes.
Amen
Amen!
Zephaniah Johnson and all gawds children said Amen.
Zephaniah Johnson yes!
PJ is as dangerous on those keys as he is on those vocals. BEAST!!!
Can we just appreciate how sweet the symphony sounds on this live rendition.
Done!!
It's the instrumentals for me!
Especially on "First Began". Got me dreamy eyed. 🤩🤩
Yes, Ma'am we sure can!😊🎶🎤🎵
. Maravilhosa
This dude just gave the world a free concert to what pure God giving Gumbo is
give this man His grammy
brik LIAM Hands down!! He DESERVES a GRAMMY!!!!!
Mannnnn No Disrespect to You But F a Grammy...This Dude and His Music Style is So Much Better Then That Tarnished Peace of Commercial Praise of a Allusion of the Music Industry....
Well he won a Grammy for "How deep is your love"!!!!!!
@@SuperLowkiiIt’s called an award…it’s better than no credit at all.
THIS. IS. WHAT. WAS. MISSING.
THIS. IS. REAL MUSIC. THAT SOULFUL. FEEL GOOD. MUSIC.
Hands down!!!! I was told that soul music is not even popular any more. But the musician in me said, "That's because you haven't heard PJ." Popped this in and changed the whole game. Thank you PJ for keeping the roots planted and bringing back REAL MUSIC
i Nejazo the lies they told you!
JoEllen Renee I always knew it was not gone. Just needed someone to bring it back. And PJ has. Blessing Queen
i Nejazo absolutely, i understand
i Nejazo Damnit say it again. I'm here for it.
He should of won a Grammy for this. The only think I dislike about this video is the drummer didn't get no facetime. He or she was killing it!
No kidding!
Yeah, honestly the camera work was driving me a little bonkers-I wanted to see people's faces and their hands, etc. But that's nitpicking I guess. The music is just incredible.
If this unplugged album was on vinyl?!? My Lawd🙌🏾🤎
It's like he said, if he was talking about how much money he had, cars, being at the club with the ladies poppin bottles etc....you would hear this album everywhere! But since he's actually singing about love and positive things you have to watch here to hear it. Black executives that are ran by white bosses will tell you there's no market for this, cuz I went thru the exact same thing, only with Quincy Jones! Wishing PJ all the success in the world, and may God be with him! Incredible talent!!
WoW
Thank You for Sharing
This man needs so much more exposure. The industry is wrong for trying to thug up dude. Damn, not every black man from the hood is a thug. And not every black man is from the hood either.
Chris Patton Right. This man is straight from the church. His father is Bishop Paul Morton. I love that he is unwavering in his commitment to create on his terms. He won't let the church put him in box and neither will he allow the mainstream music industry to alter his musicianship or his personal style. He's a real musical talent, and we're so blessed because he chooses his creativity over other people's expectations.
Chris Patton he’ll have his time in the sun. Every artist has to go through obscurity before gaining success. It’s a natural thing to experience as a musician in the entertainment world.
mali carter You're right. You know he's been on keys with Maroon 5 for the longest. He's headed to the top!
PJ has already made it in my opinion. He's a professional musician at the top level of the industry. Just because his name isn't as famous as the groups he's played with doesn't mean he isn't incredibly successful. Most aspiring musicians would trade an arm and a leg for his status. Success shouldn't be defined by celebrity. That being said I agree more people should listen to his music.
Over exposure can kill the music. True musicians are already "having their time in the sun" if they are making their own music. We need to think twice about equating ridiculously busy and/or rich and/or over exposed with success and happiness. Is anyone old enough to remember Christopher Cross? Anyone? Yah.
Background Vocals on " Go through your Phone" is on Point!!!!!!
Music is so powerful. A new job, new worries, new fears. But even 5 years later, God blesses PJ to get a message to me - EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT!!!
I live in an apartment. My upstairs neighbor is probably so sick of me. First, I listened to Gumbo to death (loudly) and now the Unplugged is out. On repeat as usual. I love love love this guy’s music!!!!!!

00:00 Intro

Thank you too!!
PJ is so good. I feel my Soul. This is I guess how Heaven feels. He sounds like Stevie. He brings the world together. All kinds of Instruments and Singers. This is how our life suppose to be, thanks
Amazing
You're the real MVP!
THANK YOU!!!
P.J. Brother, after watching this, You have a new fan. You are an inspiration. I've from Lake Charles, 63 years old. That song Claustrophobic did it for me. Brother, continue to be yourself. God sees you, the world needs your honesty. Bless you brother.
I mean, although I dig H.E.R. this perfect one-take live version of Gumbo should've won the Grammy. Who orchestrates their albums anymore? It's a lost art. Glad he won for the duet with Yebba, but this as a whole is brilliance at its best. Love him!
As a musician,
You appreciate music that you can enjoy from Start to finish. What Pj did on this live version showed color, variety, and show the best musicianship since Stevie Wonder. I’m not saying people don’t have good music but this was MUSIC! I haven’t heard something like this in a long time! Thank you PJ!
BRANDON FOSTER yessssss, in so much agreement! Thanks for your great comment!
I agree 100%.. shit like this is hard to find.. so much of his work sounds inspired by SW. His tones, rifts, and note choices.
Amen! #inspired
Exactly
I agree....the music was so damn good, I cried! And I DON'T cry. It was awesome. I'd pay to see him perform any day!
I'm just ashamed that I slept on this masterpiece for so long...
Genius... you cannot contain this energy... SPIRIT is this... not 4 walls. Communion right here
Never heard of PJ Morton before this day....and here I am looking for concert tickets. The talent is really real!
LOL...Right!!
Even better in person! Saw him live in baltimore. Did this whole cd!🔥🔥🔥
the son of bishop paul morton!!!
Takes me back to Stevie, mixed with Musiq, Boys 2 Men, and down home church!
the background singers are singing so beautifully! those subtle runs that add soul and class to the songs... ugh
i can never get tired of this.. i come here every week for a fix...
i don’t understand how there’s still not peace on earth after this.
HOW DEEP THE MUSIC CAN BE? THIS IS THE DEEPEST
So glad I'm here. Respect from Argentina
Something about that Jamaican break down on claustrophobic gets me every time
YESSSSS!!! He was feelin it too
🌴🌊🌊☀️🌊🌊🌴
Fo' damned real!!!
*Reggae
Amen!
You are BAD DUDE! I been listening to you all day! I am 60 how I miss you cause you are now my favorite artist!!!! Love my brother
This dude reminds me so much of stevie wonder....I think its clear he took inspiration from him. Glad somebody will carry the torch because stevie wont live forever.
This record is "Cool Church"!!!
Geoffrey Callands say it again
Way too much greatness , talent , soul , realness , & just raw gifted musicians in this 40 minute & 42 seconds video! PJ Morton Gumbo was already something! But... this Gumbo unplugged is simply genius!!!! Favorite album right now!
I just literally sent this video to about 5 people and told them to drop everything they are doing and listen to this. Religion goes HAM!!!
I did the same , amazing
I agree. Religion is the most powerful song on here
I keep coming back to this. Love me some gumbo.
the strings are phenomenal. like getting my entire life today.
Jamille Wade yassssssss! string section were beasting
PHENOMENAL!!
Brian Harvey Matt Jones
Yessss! I love it. The orchestra gives it that real feel good that penetrates through your soul.
Read your comment right @22:23
I said I was only gonna watch a little bit of this and ended up watching the whole thing....I couldn’t help it 😁
Me too!!! It is amazing!!!
Me too! Loosing sleep!
Me right now sitting outside my house in the driveway phone plugged up with the aux and all 🤦🏽♂️
Hamiltones+ PJ Morton+ gifts and talents= Nirvana
Or Heaven or Love or Pure Truth
I just peeped how BJ the Chicago kid was randomly doing background vocals lololol #EPIC
Where's the HELL YEAH I LOVED EVERY SEC BUTTON? 🔥⭐ #RealArtists #RealMusic
#Soul
Everything I need is right here
Why is this 5yrs old and sounds brand new! Hear something new every time and this is about my 10,000th time. Musical MASTERCLASS.
Stevie wonder and Marvin Gaye with some D'Angelo thrown in. Real musical Gumbo.
Mixing is bomb on here
D. Mitch. That's what I've been in awe of, alongside his performance.
This is everything that is right with the world. Watching this is complete joy.
PJ Morton!! Anyone here 2020.? Love his Martin Gaye vibes. Such a beautiful pure musician/ singer/artist.❤️❤️❤️
2021
2021!
Pj came to Pittsburgh like a week ago and I was very disappointed in Pittsburgh for not showing more support. Pj is the Mann and I love his music. Me and my wife loved it! I would pay a $100 a ticket to see this guy. Thank you Pj for coming to Pittsburgh. Hope u make it back. Keep making good music.Peace and godbless
This is great! ❤️🙏🏻 ‘Everything will be, everything gonna be alright’ 🎵 Greetings from Holland
Thank you PJ Morton for giving us a real life album and allowing us in the live experience of this wonderful orchesration
We All appreciate Mr PJ Morton
I haven't vibed wit an R&B artist like this in a gooood minute. Every song is a VIBE
As a preacher & pastor, PJ Morton on this piece lead me into praise and worship. His transparency is impeccable. Peace & Blessings to my brother-this is evangelism on the street and not in the suite of the church. While you listening, check out the lyrics. I ain’t going to turn around, but I am going to stick to my gun.
I'm scared to say, that this is the first time I've really listened to your music. I saw the video with Yebba singing with you and it bought me here. You have gained another fan!!! You are amazing! Now Imma sit at work and listen to all your albums. Be blessed everyone! 😁
Girl you're in for a treat. He is so talented and his music resonates any phase of your life. I still have all of his cds from his early days in New Orleans.
IronRose Confessions checkout his album with freestyle nation it was a group he was in bck in the day. Its classic! Name of the album freeversation
Yes girl get ALL of his albums! If you ever get a chance to see him live, go for it! Absolutely electrifying☺️
Go all the way back to Mary.
IronRose Confessions WELCOME to the bright side. Its lovely over here in PJ Morton Fanland LOL
I have so many emotions about this video I literally don't know which feeling to comment. Overall, I'm overjoyed at the beauty of this art. PJ is a GREAT. No question!
Brandon Burton I feel the same way.
Here, Here...He's going to be around for a long time.
Brandon Burton was i
I feel the same way! I was thinking goodness this video is making me have so many different emotions!
As a singer and a music head Im in love with this! in love! and the fact that he has such a strong church undertone his music style! But mixed in with neosoul just makes me wanna faint lol
6 year anniversary of this amazing album.
At this very moment this music is feeding my soul...May the Most High bless and keep you
I am right here with YOU and it's 2020
Right back at you.
Well Church " This is Real Music in 2018 2019 2020

I ran across this Unplugged by accident and OMG!!! It's on repeat!
AWESOME❤
Why am I just finding out this group exists. This music is melancholy. Love it ❤
I’m still here in December 2023

Modern day Stevie wonder!!!!!!!!!!! WOW no WORDS NONE. HE. IS. IT

My thoughts exactly!! LIVE he's like witnessing a living LEGEND! NO LIE! Stevie Vibes!
He’s dope but nah lol Stevie murks him on the vocals
Exclusively Engineered Hands Dwon!!
Stevie wonder / deangelo
I'm in love with his musicality. Bringing back REAL music, REAL vocals, and REAL artistic abilities.
Same❤️💜💜💜💜💜
My husband & I can’t stop watching this. We’ve been married 48 years and we both get teary eyed when you sing “First Began”. Looking back at our lives from this point in time this song means so much. From the first chord I start to cry. Happy tears. Thank you for writing this. Oh, & by the way we’ve been in the music business for 50+ years, along with our sons & now our granddaughter as well.
If Curtis Mayfield and Donny Hathaway produced a musical child pj would be that child. My gracious he is so fye!
Oh wow
Mmmmmaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!! This guy is truly talented
And Stevie was the Pa'Ran.
Love this from beginning to end..... big ups to my boy Matt Jones who wrote the string arrangements and directing in the background #BlackGreatness
Darren Warren I was wondering who arranged the strings. Outstanding
Yeah that's my Lil Bro Matt Jones! We went to Columbia College Chicago for a quick minute, were meet him and his Sister who's also very talented!
WHERE HAVE I BEEN???? OMGGGG I'm in LOVE!!!!!
Wow!!! Stevie Wonder, D'angelo and lil Marvin Gaye all wrapped up in one! I love it!! Thank you PJ for believing in yourself and your truth. My hubby and I are definitely fans from VA!
Totally inspired all the way from Kenya❤
PJ is a straight up monster music wise. One day I'll be able to collab with him
Killa background vocals!! Awesome!
I can’t go a day without watching this video!!🙌🏾🔥🇿🇦 #RawTalent #NonConformity
Definitely Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway and Glenn Lewis vibes🎶🎶💜💜 #newpjmortonfan
The strings on First Began are so beautiful. Really takes you somewhere else.
Vctorrr yes the strings are incredible absolutely incredible!
It's the strings on "Alright" for me.
My God!!! He's amazing
@@DreaLois So I'm no the only one that feels this way about the strings! My son play's the violin. Can't ever get tired of them. I love live music and the strings are awesome!
You remind me of Stevie Wonder!! Yeah!!!! And those keys OMG😍💯👍🏾
Oh...Had me in tears with " Don't wanna go through your phone" Oh...How I love the vibe of that song...Oh...How I love your music.
You are brilliant.🎶🔁💞
That one hits different, there's something about it.
Everything's gonna be alright....that last section was all church! All those praise break progressions! LOL PLAY DOC!!!
izzyvulaca When he took it to the 4 i LOST IT 😭😭😭🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 #Glooooraayyyy
Luizinho Delfino me too! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
YES LAWD!!
izzyvulaca I know right
I was thinkin' the same thang! He took 'em to church!
What took me so long to listen to PJ... what is my problem???
Asking myself the same thing
IDK. Welcome to honest music.
Same
Same here, never too late though.
Ditto.
And, like what about the other couple dozen?
Uummmmmmm I was up at 5:30 AM intertwined in this spiritual experience.......Come on now!!!!!! 🎹🎻🥁🎧🎸🎼
The musicality of it all and the fact that he can't actually read music but still the whole arrangement came from his mind.
he's amazing. I'm just in love with his music and his sound. Its pure love!
Wow. I had no idea how many people didn't know about P.J. I've been jamming to his music since 2007. So much soul.
Y'all On Fire, All The Glory Be To Our Heaven Father Lord Sweet Savior Jesus Christ 💟❤😅
I remember back in the day a studio session would net you 4500 easy. Everyday came with an after party. Had to leave that life alone so I was truly feeling claustrophobic.
Stevie, Donny, Herbie, and more would like this as fire!!
With a Philly Style Orchestra.. doesn't get no better than this
dont forget marvin!
Yes, and Marvin and I even here some Lionel Richie
MAN?!?! This album is absolutely 🔥🔥 along with the remake of “How deep is your love” with Yebba is nothing less than STELLAR....kudos sir. I know being a true artist theee days makes you feel like a mutant at times, is very lonely and might not be financially rewarding, but thank you for this offering. It’s very much appreciated. 🙏🏾
Superbly stated, I agree! GOD bless you Mr. Morton!
Yep.
Grammy winning :)
He had literally the perfect combination of EVERYTHING on this album and session. And BOTH of them background vocalists! I love their voices...
Stevie Wonder’s gifts 😮❤❤
....someone just told me about PJ today...i'm an ole ole skooler....as watching this ...i am smiling '....God bless you... and HE will....so,stay true to Who is real....
It's Been Said That R. Kelly Was A Musical Genius. Well They Obviously Haven't Been Introduced To The One And Only Mr. PJ Morton. A Real Musical Genius Is One Who Can Make Not Only Age Appropriate Music But Something That's Easy Enough On The Ears To Keep The Older Crowd Interested. And Not To Mention That E-V-E-R-Y Song On This Album Is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! This Album Is By Far A Musical Masterpiece And You Mr. Morton In My Opinion Are The Real Musical Genius.
Sharee Kinard REAL SPIT!!!!! 💯
I love you
💯💯💯💯💯💯💜💜💜
Have to say ..I don't really buy singles or album just stream so this is gonna be the first album for years I have to buy ...May God continue to intwine your spirit to his ...Amen
PJ Morton I discovered you on Terrell's show and I honestly just discovered him. I was glued to my desktop your entire Gumbo concert. I was supposed to be working, but I stopped so many times. Your show was absolutely transformational! I felt like I was in a very loving place surrounded by all good people, forgetting that I am in this COVID-19 lockdown. I'm in NYC where it's real crazy; I only go out for groceries, I am so lifted after listening to this video. I'm a huge fan of live music and I've never really made the commitment to sing. I do a show here and there, and all my friends get mad at me for not continuing because they feel good when I sing, but after today, I'm all the way committed. Imma start doing vocal exercises and dust off my piano and start learning chords again. Your show felt so good and I want to make other people feel the same way. Thank you for your graciousness and humbleness. And most importantly, thank you for sharing. Love you!
If you make people feel good when you sing..you are not doing your soul justice by not singing. That is a gift on top of singing is making on feel some kind of way. I'm glad to hear you are giving it a shot..it will work out. The say music has the charm to soothe a savaged beast....so what will it do for someone who has had a hard day at work??? Good luck to you!
P.J. is now a 2019 Grammy Nominee for this album! He was nominated for the studio version last year, so let's hope the academy gets it right this time. This man's talent is just 🙌🏾.
He deserves it! I really hope he gets it!!!
PJ is a musical genius!! I’m so appreciative of your willingness and ability to create innovative music that embodies the authenticity of who you are while sharing a positive message. I thank God for you bro! You are an inspiration.
Art Neal Yesssss, so well stated!
Art Neal yes he is
am I the only one who got a Stevie vibe the ENTIRE time
Nasir Foster Not at all😉
Nasir Foster Yep.
Nasir Foster ok, he is giving me Stevie, Donny Hathaway, Marvin in a classic R&B Gumbo. Love it.
First began could have been written by Stevie, sounds like it came straight off songs in the key of life.
GymBarberella * he look just like Marvin with that outfit on 😂
🤯🤯 Much love to the bassist!!
Rocked it with his retro Marvin Gaye fit. ❤️
