Mama Too: It's A F** G-Thang

/
“Mama Too: It's A F** G-Thang” is a powerful chronicle of resistance and truth, stitched from authentic, brave voices broadcast on our mighty Instagram story feed. These voices illuminate the spiraling madness and horror we witness daily: the confirmed genocide in Gaza, enabled by western nations that declare themselves democracies but suppress peace, arresting those who protest the massacre of children under new 'anti-terror' laws—most harshly in the UK.

This song stands in solidarity with those fearless enough to speak, to shine a light, to withstand pressure and misunderstanding. Like Mama, we all know—forced to watch, forced to obey, forced into silence—but the truth demands to be heard. “Mama Too: It's A F** G-Thang” is not just a song; it's a tribute to every witness, every protester, every heartbeat refusing to surrender.

David Joseph’s ‘You Can’t Hide (Your Love From Me)' is a track I’ll forever have a strong personal association with, given that it was with 2 copies of this 12" that I made my claim to fame as the 1st UK DJ to mix live on TV – on February 25th 1983 at Newcastle’s Tyne Tees TV studio, on the classic British music show, ‘The Tube’. Full story and YouTube clip here at Electrofunkroots:

Last April I was sent a link to an edit by Italian DJ Moplen™ and was, as you can imagine, intrigued when I saw what it was - David Joseph – ‘You Can't Hide (Your DUB From Me)’. Utilizing the Larry Levan mix (I’d used original UK twelves on The Tube, the Levan mix wouldn’t come until later, when the track went big in the NYC clubs), Moplen had done a fine job, but unfortunately I couldn’t play it. 

I replied to his mail, explaining that because of my connection to the track I would need the vocal in there at some point, otherwise the dancefloor might feel short changed. The whole dub vibe teases things up a treat, but the money shot of the song is a must for my own purposes. Moplen was getting a great reaction to the edit as it was, and rightly so – check it out here:

So, for my own personal use, I edited Moplen’s edit to incorporate the full vocal, and the resulting version became one of my big festival tracks of 2011, and something that’s appeared in a number of my live mixes.

This track has come a long way with me since I was first sent a UK promo by Island Records 29 years ago.
