G.MO Senegambian Kid

Artists - Hip-Hop

He describes us letter by letter the initials of his MC’s name. “G” stands for Galsene (Senegal when you twist it) and Gambia. The letter refers to the Senegambian origins of the rapper. The `' MO'' refers to the name of the artist which is Mohammed and reminds us the very holy prophet of Islam (saw). It is thus a simple combination between the true name of the artist and his origins.

G.mo was born in Dakar (SENEGAL) in January 1988. After a few months, he goes to France with his mother and will return only eight years later in the Senegalese capital. The child who was in love with Micheal Jackson’s music will discover Senegalese rap with groups like PBS, Daara J, Pee froiss or Yat Fu. He also travels to Gambia where he often settles and learn English. One of his cousins, Blackbird will influence him to another style of rap: the American rap. It is now all about groups like HOTBOYZ or 504 BOYZ of the “Southside” of the United States giving to the child the desire for writing texts.

He starts to write at the age of 16 and will record his first track at the age of 17. The same year, he makes his first radio show!!! His flow and his technique will enable him to collaborate with Senegalese artists like Nix or Fafadi, gambian artists like MO HAWK (DA FUGITIVZ), Rugie or Junior King and the US beat maker THX (see SNOOP DOGG’s “the blue carpet treatment” album)… Today G.MO is the first rapper to offer his first album for free.
After the first free album that came out in July 2007, G.MO is now preparing “THE COME BACK” mixtape with musical productions of AMA DIOP and BEUGZ.

For now he presents his new African hit single “GET DOWN”
“GET DOWN” shows that Africa is quite present in the world of Hip Hop. It’s full of talents who don’t need to envy other continents.
The title coincides with the arrival of Barack Obama, the first black president of the USA.

You’ve never seen Africans so fly!!!
