Looking for the Helpers
Long Live GoGo

Long Live GoGo seeks to return Black music to the forefront of Chocolate City.
Go-go music, once a ubiquitous symbol of Black culture in D.C., is threatened by gentrification and a changing urban landscape. Justin “Yaddiya” Johnson founded Long Live GoGo to keep the music alive. His “Moechella” rallies– half concerts, half political rallies– mix music and activism, addressing the issues facing the Black community while exposing a new generation to D.C.’s unique music.
