3. Moja Chaw - Jawolu

Abdoulie “MOJA” Chaw is a Gambian artist based in Bakau Newtown. He signed to a local independent label called HeartCold Records in 2013 that brought him to be in the same label as Grandiz Kroo and Medical, a rap group and solo rap artist respectively.

At the Secondary level of education, Moja had to drop out from school due to financial constraints. He later discovered his ability to connect with music which helped him drown his pains and distress. 

Moja started his music career as a solo artist before joining in 2004 a group called Family Clan. The group recorded three tracks titled “Ghetto Love”, “Mama Africa” and “Family Clan”. 

In 2008, Moja joined another group named Unique Clan alongside Dr. P and Manding Morry. Together they released a hit track titled “Zumbeh”. The hit track secured the group an invitation to perform in the third Open Mic Festival organized at Jakarlo.

In 2009, Moja was offered a one year deal with R-Child Records. The deal was later extended to four years. In 2010, singles such as “Japal Banya Bayi”, “Suma Reny Hol”, “We Are Getting” and “Elisa” were released for promotion; a music-video titled “Lici Tuky” was also released in 2013 and aired on GRTS. But unfortunately, the final product (studio project) failed to see the day.

In view of the aforesaid, Moja decided to move on with his career. In that vein, he met Ya Saly Njie who served as his Manager. According to Moja, Ya Saly has played a part in him joining the Manding Morry Academy of Music (MANFOFA) in 2013. She had motivated him in short. During that time, Moja was approached by MAB “The last One”, Founder & CEO of HeartCold Records. 




In the summer of 2011, MAB who also serves as a producer saw Moja perform in a free concert in Bakau and found pure talent in him, a soulful voice and a potential that lacks in many Gambian artists. Despite the fact that Moja was engaged in other businesses, he continued to follow and observe the artist until sometimes in 2013 when he proposed him to join HeartCold Records label.

Early 2014, Moja graduated from MANFOFA and was awarded a Certificate. In the same vein, he agreed on a deal with HeartCold Records.

Moja then started to work on a studio project, recording track after track, hit after hit. He gives his heart and soul when he faces the microphone. His tracks are mainly real life stories that many people can relate to. He essentially sang about love, betrayal, hatred etc. For these reasons his project was titled “Life Is Love”. 

Moja is versatile. He is good in many genre of music such as Dancehall, Reggae, Ndaga, Afro Manding etc. He can be classified as a World music artist since his flow on instrumentals gives an exceptional and unique flavor to his music which is somehow breathe taking and mind blowing.

In “Life Is Love” studio project, Moja chose to narrate and share part of his life and his emotions. It’s in that regard that he featured few artists such as Papa Lenty in “Don’t Call My Phone” which is a pure Dancehall track.  

In 9th August 2014, the promotion campaign of “Life Is Love” project started with the release of a track titled “Nasira” which has been uploaded in the internet for free streaming and downloading and shared on mobile phones.

In 13th September 2014, a second single named “Damala Nob” was released in the internet and CDs were given to DJs in various radio stations. However, some DJs claimed that they have lost the CD, some claimed that they did not receive it, etc and that caused a setback on the promotion of Moja’s releases. 

In 11th October 2014, a third single called “Jawolu” was released and sent to DJs through email addresses as HeartCold Records Management was avoiding suffering another setback. However, the DJs efforts to cooperate were improving. 

In collaboration with C Paah B Entertainment, Moja organized a show called “Jollof Love Fiesta” featuring many artists at Sinatras in Bakau on 25th October 2014. The event was backed by the Blood Brothers Band and sponsored by Yiriwaa Africa Foundation.
 
The release of other tracks before the release of “Life Is Love” in February 2015 has been scheduled accordingly.

The project “Life Is Love” comprised of 15 tracks was mainly produced by MAB The Last One, HeartCold Records. The track titled “Moja Mi Name” was produced by Malang “The Beat Chef” Fatty, GSC Records based in the UK.

In terms of appearances, Moja was featured in Cess Ngum song and music video named “Dumala bayi”. He was also featured in Manding Morry’s song called “Janfa Mang Nyi” and 


Grandiz Kroo’s song named “Lingma Jaral” included in “The Future In Featuring” mixtape. He appeared in a couple of events such as Miss West Africa 2011, Open Mic Festival in 2013 as a back-up singer for Manding Morry and in a couple of Jalimady’s Shows organized in Sinatras, Bakau. 

In 2011, he was also featured in a magazine named “Rock Entertainment Journal”.
