Bio St. Louis, MO
Remember the name Morgan Taylor because you will see it again. The rising R&B artist is making waves with her latest single, “Outside That’s Periodt,” a fearless declaration of independence, empowerment, and self-love. Born from a personal experience during her junior year of college, the track celebrates stepping out of toxic relationships and into confidence.“I was talking to this guy that I really did not like,” Taylor recalls. “I didn’t know if I was feeling him. And I was just writing how I felt. As soon as I got to the studio, I was like, ‘This is it.’” The song captures that universal moment when it’s time to walk away from what no longer serves you. “The whole point of ‘Outside That’s Periodt’ is you’re in your cuffing season during the fall, and once summer hits, you’re outside,” she explains.Though its message carries attitude, Taylor insists the track isn’t about toxicity. It’s an anthem of joy, freedom, and self-celebration. “It’s mostly about the ability to be outside by yourself and just love yourself, not somebody who doesn’t share the same love for you,” she says. “It’s about being with your friends, being with your mama, drinking some wine, just enjoying life and loving yourself.”That blend of confidence and vulnerability defines Taylor’s songwriting process. “Anytime I write a song, it’s like my journal, a reflection of what’s happening in my life or what my friends are going through,” she explains. “It’s really just me expressing how I feel about a certain topic.”“Outside That’s Periodt” also channels her bold alter ego, Big Mo. “I feel like everyone has that alter ego, and Big Mo is one of them,” she says. “Big Mo is spicy. She’s going to stand on business. She’s the extrovert to my introvert, the fire to my calm.” That duality between the sweet, grounded woman she was raised to be and the outspoken artist she’s becoming lies at the core of her artistry.The single connects to her debut EP Love Bombed (Love, Loss and Lessons) released in January 2025, which has already surpassed 1.5 million streams on Spotify. “‘Outside That’s Periodt’ is about standing on business,” Taylor says. “By the end of a relationship, you realize you are the prize. That’s how I want women to feel after listening to my music, uplifted and unstoppable.”Her message resonates deeply with young women navigating the balance between expectation and self-worth. “I just want young girls to know it’s okay to walk away from something that isn’t healthy,” she says. “You’re not alone. So many of us go through the same things. Love yourself first before you can love anybody else.”Taylor’s smooth yet powerful vocals reflect her gospel roots. She sang her first church solo at nine and soon released her debut gospel EP, Yes, Jesus Loves Me, at just eleven. In high school, she transitioned into R&B while staying grounded in her gospel foundation. Later, at Berklee College of Music, she refined her sound under the guidance of esteemed instructors and renowned vocal coach Romeo Johnson. “The main thing I learned is to be myself,” she says. “You can be inspired by others, but you can’t copy them. Stay focused and build connections.”Looking ahead, Taylor dreams of creating her own record label to nurture local talent in St. Louis while expanding into coffee, fashion, and live event production. “I want to make people feel seen,” she says. With aspirations of performing on the Grammy stage and exploring acting, her message remains clear: “You are the prize. You are that girl. Love yourself, don’t be too hard on yourself, and always stay true to who you are.”With “Outside That’s Periodt,” Morgan Taylor delivers a soundtrack of confidence, sisterhood, and unapologetic joy. It’s another defining moment in her fast-rising career and proof that she’s one of R&B’s most promising new voices.
