Mo’Ju: ‘Change Has To Come’

“I’ve grown so much as an artist, and a person,” Mo’Ju said in a statement about the new album. “With Native Tongue, I cracked myself wide open. I let myself be vulnerable, and I showed more sides of me than ever before.

“I went from having all this mystery, creating this mythology, almost playing a caricature, to taking the mask off, letting the walls down. Native Tongue This was a new chapter. Now, I’m here; this is me; I’m done explaining, I’ve got bigger ideas to talk about.”

Mo’Ju’s longtime collaborator Henry Jenkins produced the album, which features guest appearances from Ngaiire Meklit. Milan Ring provides some production on the track ‘Bran Nue Wurld’. The album’s name is a loving nod to Mo’Ju’s uncle, Peque Gallaga, who directed a film by the same name.
