Morray discussed the rapid rise of his hit "Quicksand." Without a lawyer or extensive industry knowledge, Morray signed a contract at a time when he was struggling to pay his bills. Despite his lack of preparation, he made a deal with Pick Six Records, which helped propel "Quicksand" into mainstream success. The song eventually reached number 65 on the Billboard Hot 100, gaining millions of views and catching the attention of North Carolina rap icons like J. Cole and DaBaby, who praised his work. Originally from North Carolina, Morray was thrilled with the success, especially coming from Fayetteville, where such achievements were rare. Although well-supported by industry giants, Morray admits that the journey was overwhelming and he acknowledged that his lack of industry understanding left him unprepared for such an explosive start.
