I'm American by Stuck Mojo
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: (July 3, 2007)

Stuck Mojo Debuts Video for "I'm American" New Web Site and Podcast

ATLANTA, GA - Following up on the success of their controversial, anti-jihadist 

music video for the song "Open Season," Stuck Mojo released today the video for 

"I'm American" from their new album "Southern Born Killers." In addition, they 

also unveiled a redesigned web site and the new "Mojo Mindset" podcast series 

at www.StuckMojo.us.

Stuck Mojo was thrust into the national spotlight earlier this year when 

the "Open Season" video caught the attention of the blogosphere. Not only was 

it unusual to see a hard rock band take a pro-American stance, the message of 

the track was very clear - "we will not simply surrender to those who wish to do

us harm." While some would try to claim that the song was anti-Islamic, the

lyrics proved this untrue. It is clearly anti-jihadist. Some were so incensed 

that they accused the band of racism. This is especially ironic considering that

jihadists are not a race and the fact that Stuck Mojo is a multi-cultural, 

multi-racial band themselves!

The controversy was fostered by YouTube denying the video its rightful placement

on their most-viewed lists. Google video simply banned the track due to a few 

of the still images of the jihadists in action. Surprisingly, Stuck Mojo found

a new audience in the hundreds of thousands who also were tired of the 

politically-correct, left-leaning music industry. Guitarist and songwriter Rich Ward 

appeared on several, national talk shows as well as Fox News" "The Big Story with 

John Gibson" to clarify the band"s message.

While not as controversial, "I'm American" does find the band once again making it

clear, in no uncertain terms, that they are proud of the qualities that has made their 

country great and the people who have fought and died for its foundation and defense. 

In today's climate of self-hatred in the music business, where bands openly flaunt 

their shame at being Americans, Stuck Mojo once again refuses to go with the flow. 

As with "Open Season" the message of "I'm American" is clear - "we may have our problems

and differences, but all are welcome to come and stand with us in freedom."

Stuck Mojo is an Atlanta-based band that is recognized as pioneers in the blending

of hard rock and hip-hop. Over their 15-year career they have released several, 

full-length albums and have toured the world continuously. Their new album, 

"Southern Born Killers," is available for download, in its entirety, 

via the band's web site at www.StuckMojo.us. A CD version including bonus DVD 

is also available for purchase.

Have you heard these guys? They rock!

[Maelstorm]

I think it is great to have a musicians willing to perform pro-american songs.

[CMS]

I wish more musicians would perform pro-American songs.

Sadly the big name bands are the ones that trash America

[Maelstorm]

That is one reason I don’t purchase much music. I don’t care to buy from those who trash America and traditional values.
