Fantan Mojah, born Owen Moncrieffe in Jamaica, has been a beacon of Rastafarian culture and conscious reggae since his breakthrough in the early 2000s. His music, characterized by a seamless blend of roots reggae and dancehall, carries messages of spirituality, social justice, and love. Known for hits like "Hail the King" and "Rasta Got Soul," Fantan Mojah's lyrics often reflect his commitment to upliftment and the Rastafarian way of life.

At Daniel's Club, Fantan Mojah’s performance was a journey through his extensive catalog, with each song resonating deeply with the audience. His charismatic delivery and powerful stage presence transformed the venue into a spiritual haven, where fans were not only entertained but also inspired by his words of wisdom and encouragement.

Fantan Mojah’s set in Toulouse featured tributes to other reggae artists, adding a dynamic layer to his performance. At the 8-minute mark of his set, he captivated the audience with a rendition of Tony Rebel's "If Jah" on the Lala Bella riddim. Later, at 13 minutes and 40 seconds, he smoothly transitioned into Nanko's "Lucky You," infusing the track with his unique style and energy.
