Anthony Young [2014] - I Won't Hurt You (REMIXX - JMAY)

Continuing the JmAY / Smokie Norful 'saga', I went searching to try and find out who JmAY is and came across a slower/deeper remix, which I think is from around 2014. It doesn't appear to have been released as I can't find it on any of the normal outlets. However it is posted on Reverbnation, which fortunately allows embedding so here it is.

I suspect that JmAY is actually a duo as there are two males on the cover and I believe now that the AY is one Anthony Antonio Young who is from Lathrop, CA (bay area). 

So who is Jm? ... well the writing credits on Smokie Norful are Derek Allen (who also produced it), Smokie Norful and Jimi Morris .. so is it a coincidence that these as the same initials?  Further investigation shows that there is a Jimi Morris who has released two singles in 2019 ('Jimi's Blues') and 2020 ('Leave Me Lonely') published by Rhythm Section Ent (based in L.A.) which seems to be owned by his nephew Big Mike who he has recorded with, so it could well be him? 

Anthony Young's profile on Reverbnation reads:
