As Mo Childs, a.k.a. Mojistic, readies his currently untitled second release, he says the future looks brighter than ever. Signing on with a high-profile manager will do that for you.
“I just signed with Jovan Dillard, who has been with DTP (Disturbing Tha Peace) and Def Jam for the last seven-plus years,” says Childs. “I’m pretty excited about that! It was a great start to the year.”
Mojistic’s latest track, “Time Is Now,” features local songwriter Jennie Devoe, and it will be used by WISH-TV for Butler sports highlights. He also volunteers with I AM 4 Kids Foundation, work he considers essential to the music and his life.
“If we started to join together to do more things than just trying to get our music heard, we would make a bigger impact,” he says. “Making a difference in the community and being a positive light goes farther. After that, the music will follow.” - Metromix

Bio
A native of Indianapolis, Indiana, Mo Childs has a serious passion for music. He began performing at the age of six, when he can recall putting on shows in the garage with his cousin. Our sisters would be the fly girls, and we would rap. Mo draws his musical energy from listening to all types of music and his own life experiences. Growing up between parents, Mo was influenced by a lot of Gospel and R&B. I can remember being glued to Video Soul with Donnie Simpson, and Yo! MTV Raps with Dre and Ed Lover. You can find a wide variety of music playing on his iPod, ranging from NewsBoys to Bjork, from KRS ONE. to Sigur Ros, all of which contribute to his unique style. Mo's inspiration comes from artists that bring something different to the ears of avid hip hop fans. When I heard Rakim for the first time I went nuts, and Bjork, who uses everything from nature sounds to kitchen utensils. This self-made producer and musician plays five different instruments, percussion being his absolute favorite. Mo is driven to perfect his skills and make his life-long dream of becoming a strong solo musical talent become a reality. As an artist I just love to make music that reaches everyone. No matter what race, gender, or religion, we have all experienced the same emotions...just in different degrees. Mo strives to put out positive sounds, and will without a doubt take the music industry by storm with his distinctive style! Yesss Sirrr!!!
