On Friday, October 21, 2022, multi-award-winning artist Wande Coal announced via his Twitter account that his debut album, “Mushin 2 Mo’hits,” is now accessible on streaming services.
Fans were thrilled to hear the news because they had been calling for the album’s streaming availability for years.
While Wande Coal or Don Jazzy, the owner of the now-defunct Mo’hits album, have declined to comment on the situation, it’s likely because of legal snags between the parties.
