EJ’s teaser track “Mama, I’m Gonna Sing” has been infecting the nation since her striking video was released earlier this year. With autobiographical lyrics and semi-acapella vocals it’s caused a real stir and now it’s time to learn a little more about where EJ gets her inspiration from.
Famous for his “United State of Pop” series, San Francisco-based Jordan Roseman aka DJ Earworm has created a sensational mashup for “Mama, I’m Gonna Sing”. Collating snippets, samples and video clips from greats such as 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G. and Prince DJ Earworm has produced a timeline of influencers that have brought EJ to where she is now. With classic songs from the 70s, 80s and 90s including “Pass The Dutchie” and “Love To Love You Baby” there’s a little something for everyone.
