Oh Poop!




Hey Lionharts & Chillsters, I suddenly had the realisation yesterday that I was meant to release the “Runnin On Empty”  E.P next week and I haven’t even started organising it …

I will be pulling my finger out this week to pull it off…not my finger, the EP. Truth is  my head is so mashed right now it’s hard to think at all let alone clearly. As some of you will know we’re still reeling from my brothers sudden suicide in May, it will be his inquest and his birthday this week so things are still very raw, painful  and very difficult for the family. Tears are still-a-plenty. Then Last week my sister was given the devastating news that she has terminal cancer, we are all praying daily and hoping for a miracle, it’s all too much for the family to deal with but deal with it we must.


In my previous blog “Follow me down to the end of the road” I stated that I would be putting down the Mic for good at the end of August and explained that I didn’t want to drag on and on until I just become some musical geriatric  embarrassment . 
It's difficult to know when you're writing becomes irrelevant and outdated.


  Its The 2nd time in 9yrs I’ve announced the end of Mama Chill but in truth I shouldn’t be making any big decisions right now. In fact I know that whatever happens I will still make music in some capacity whether the same or different at some point, maybe after a break. One of the reasons for my change of heart is due to everything that’s happening right now, it really smacks home the fragility of life and how nothing else really matters, you’ve just got to do what you want to do, and do it now and for as long as you can.

The other reason was on opening a book,  Power Thoughts by Joyce Meyer and reading a passage on rejection, suddenly everything became clearer.  So I hope you’re still enjoying the track “Jus Human”?  & will equally enjoy the E.P Runnin On Empty?  I’m even gonna give you a heads up on the  track listing:

1.Jus Human (radio edit)
2.ToolBox (radio edit)
3.Give U –Jmoya Ft Mama Chill
4.Tears (radio edit)
5.Bus Stop 16 (radio edit)
6. The World & His Wife (radio edit)
7.Jus Human (Explicit)
8.ToolBox (Explicit)
9. Tears (Explicit)
10. Bus Stop 16 (Explicit)
11 The world & his Wife (Explicit)


If the DJ's/radio presenters following & supporting me would like to drop me their email via social media inbox or at officialmamachill@gmail.com I will send you a digital copy via WeTransfer. 


Thanx to everyone for the love and support, sorry for my fuddled head, there’s only one of me (thank god) and sometimes what I hope to achieve doesn’t always go to plan as quickly and my physical ability has other ideas. The ME is at a pretty bad level right now so it's making things tougher, but  I will get there, and I’m looking forward to you hearing the new stuff, in the meantime, please keep ya prayers coming for my sister, miracles do happen.    Luv ya, Stay Blessed xxx

End Of The Road

       Hi, well this is an update and an au revoir all at the same time. There will be a track release for you to hear on Monday 3rd August "Jus Human" although don't listen to it if you don't like swears  & an E.P release exclusively via digital download  on Bandcamp for £3.99 on the 23rd August which will also include the clean radio edits and then the journey will come to an end.                                  Many years ago when I first became ill with M.E there were those in the medical profession from doctors to councillors who said that I needed to give up trying for a music career because  firstly  I would be too sick to fulfill the criteria needed to be a music artist and secondly the stress of that life style would only worsen my condition.  Now from the moment  I slid  into the world and was able to use my lungs I sung and never shut up, just as soon as I could hold a pen I wrote songs worked hard and never lost the  hunger and passion to su

Runnin On Empty...Again?

Hi  For those following my journey so far, you might already know the story? In which case feel free to depart and head back over to Facebook.... for those who don't?  This is what's been happening since the last Album back in 2011 & the reasonings for my musical absence and the decision to release 2015's E.P  Runnin On Empty properly......Sitting comfortably?  So the first album "Nobody Wants To Know Ya When Ya Nobody" took 5 yrs to make due to a combination of poor health including Myalgic Encephalomylitis, Fibromyalgia and Osteoporosis & also finance, but with some motherly support and selling my rap/hiphop vinyl collection  it was finally released mid 2011 & I spent the rest of the year promoting it.  I was still constantly writing and already had enough material for another album and so the recording process continued in 2012 and I hoped this time with the learning curve of  the first album I could manage my health better & speed thin

All Change/No Change

So I’ve been putting this update blog off because when you have M.E its like trying to think through a wall of fog most of tha time. But I cant put it off indefinitely, So, first up is change, there’s been major changes since last year so I best explain. It's been over six months since Tha Studio I’ve  recorded all my trax in so far,  moved, so it’s no    longer local, not for me anyhow, if I didn’t have M.E  maybe I would’ve hopped on a train, who knows?  but I cant.                         This has also meant that trax are having to be mixed remotely and there’s been a number of delays and things coming to a halt. It’s a much harder and clinical way of working amongst other things which is why I’ve never been a fan and probably never will be.  Due to tha new circumstances, tha plan of dropping tha album in July isn’t  going to happen now either, it’s a real shame but not tha end of tha world.  Everything is sent to try us and  while I cant deny there’s b
