Mo Childs

Born under the sign of Sagittarius in December, Morris Christopher Childs, p/k/a Mo Childs is on a mission to be all that he can be via his strong commitment to self, body, his spirituality and his family.

This Indianapolis born and raised artist was influenced greatly by his Mom whom taught him to be expressive through creative expression, the rapper enjoys blending musical genres based greatly on his upbringing. As a child he was exposed to gospel, and as he grew older he became very interested in big band music. “With the ills of segregation and racism, African-Americans used music as a way to mask the pain”, say the very articulate emcee, he continues, “The passion put into that music was the outlet no doubt.”

As he ventured into high school he expanded his horizons into liking acts as diverse as: The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Dave Matthews Band and The Grits.

Experiencing life all over the world, Childs feels that this diverse background has helped him embrace various genres and cultures, he describes his music as “pop-hop”, a blend of pop culture with elements of hip-hop. His single “And They Say” is a spot on example of such. He feels having a unified mind sets him apart from the rest of the field in hip-hop. “Everyone is trying to be the best rapper, the best baller, and I am just trying to be me with the best me daily with our creators help”, says Childs with a marked determination.

When not working on new lyrics, Childs enjoys spending time with his family and friends. Being physically fit is also very important to him as he works out daily at the gym to keep in shape. He also enjoys sports (he ran track in high school). Helping people is a trait he also wants emphasized. He often volunteers with charitable organizations.

Additionally he is a huge fan of both DC Comics and Marvel as well, with a personal partiality to Batman. “I Like The Avengers from Marvel too, especially Iron Man” , he says with a laugh.

Mo Childs definitely is not your ordinary artist. ‘Pop-Hop’ has arrived.
