About The Electrifying Mojo and The MFA
The Electrifying Mojo ( Charles Johnson from Little Rock, Arkansas) was a Detroit disc jockey (1977-mid 90′s) who shaped the social development of a generation of music-lovers in Detroit and throughout southeastern Michigan, N. Ohio, and Canada, and was of importance to the development of Detroit Techno .
He is recognized for having introduced or “broken” many artists into the Detroit radio market, including Prince, The B-52′s, and Kraftwerk , and was occasionally thanked on-air by the artists for his support of their work.
At 12 Midnight, the mother ship would land and Mojo would call to order The Midnight Funk Association, a 1 hour segment featuring funk artist of the day including Parliament-Funkadelic, Prince, Zapp, Gap Band, Rick James, The Time, classic rock artists like Pink Floyd, and Peter Frampton. or alternative artists like Talking Heads.
