About Me

Where does one start, when the beginning is as blurry as the end.. :).. I was born, Yussuf Migoko, in East Africa, Tanzania, Dar-Es-Salaam ("Salam Alaikum").. There, i lived and was raised by my grandparents and aunts, and stuff, because my mother was all I had, but she got at fellowship to do Law in England.. At a young age, we relocated to Kingston, Jamaica, and that was where I got culturalized.. haha.. and as they say, the rest is history.. :)....Jamaica, my new home, was where I became re-cultured, and found my calling, on this journey towards "One Love".. :).. Small steps is how it all starts, and my music is an easy way to spread the word, share the message, incite other things, and to just leave you with a piece of who I am.. So although my music is mostly centered around Hiphop, Reggae, Soca, and RnB, I've always and will always be found sampling other genres and experimenting, nothing tried, nothing gained, right.. :).. So this journey could be described as "Fearless", because I am brave enough to try most things at least once, "Insightful", educated, yet not a slave to mental freedom or rules and prejudices set by society.. "Real", because reality is what has broken me and at the same time, made me stronger, and what i write about, whether mine or someone else's reality, it's a reality, and, "Revolutionary", because YMG is a movement and Yussuf Migoko is a name most won't be able to pronounce at first glance, but once you warm up to the soul behind the face, it's someone you will never forget, it's all love.. YMG.. God bless.. And as Tessanne reminds us, "Your words are weapons, so use them wisely".. Keep tuning in and check out my official myspace..
