DID YOU KNOW: Gospel DJ DJ Mo Was A Big Drunkard

DJ Mo on the decks.

DJ Mo is best known for being one of the winners of the Pilsner Mfalme DJ competition. His win was hotly opposed by some of the other DJs, who went to the media to air their complaints. He is also a member of the System Unit Crew, led by DJ Sadic. DJ Mo was queried about his origins before he made the leap to become a popular DJ. He admitted that he was an alcohol tank during his gap year after high school.

He solemnly proclaimed:

"I stayed home for a year after high school — that was the darkest period of my life. I got involved in heavy drinking and women. And when I drunk, I would become violent and get into many fights. I would constantly sleep in the cells in Rongai because of getting into fights. My mum watched helplessly and didn’t know what to do.

I am glad she prayed for me and did not give up on me. I gave my life to God and I stopped partying. Around that time, God connected me with Daniel Masawi; he was involved in community youth initiatives. He began to mentor and guide me.
