Who we are

StressGods is a dynamic creative collective founded by two influential and culturally rich creators, Mo Haze and Steve Ricks. With roots deeply connected to Africa and Jamaica, the duo brings together music, sports, fashion, culture, craftsmanship, creativity, natural remedies and self-expression.

The vision extends beyond entertainment. StressGods is about creating a space where people can express themselves, discover their talents, connect with others, and transform everyday pressure into something meaningful.

Why StressGods

The name represents a philosophy centred around creativity as a form of relief and expression. Music, art, fashion, craftsmanship, sports and culture can all provide ways for people to escape everyday pressure, reconnect with themselves and discover new forms of inspiration.

StressGods explores creativity as a source of expression, relief, positive energy and connection — while embracing traditional knowledge, craftsmanship and natural remedies as part of a broader relationship between culture, creativity and wellbeing.

Turn stress into creation.

The Sierra Leone community

This website is the StressGods Sierra Leone community — not a slice of something happening elsewhere. It is the home of a growing circle of supporters, creatives, athletes, entrepreneurs and fans across the country, with African roots that connect deeply with Sierra Leone.

It is where music, sports, creativity, culture and entrepreneurship come together: an environment where people can connect, collaborate, showcase their talents and discover opportunities that help them move forward.

04

Music, culture & expression

Music is at the heart of the StressGods movement. From Afrobeats and hip-hop to freestyle energy, experimental sounds and unexpected creative directions, StressGods embraces different sounds and styles without limiting creativity to one genre.

Projects such as National Remedies reflect the movement's interest in combining music, culture, creativity and identity. StressGods is about exploring new ideas, breaking creative boundaries and keeping the energy moving.

05

Sports & community

The StressGods vision extends beyond music and fashion into sports and community development. One of the long-term goals is to establish StressGods FC and a StressGods Basketball Team in Sierra Leone.

These teams and future sports initiatives are intended to create spaces where young people can develop their talents, compete, build discipline and connect with others — pathways for talented people who may not otherwise have access to the platforms, networks or opportunities they need.

06

The bigger vision

StressGods is also developing a distinctive clothing and fashion identity — combining culture, individuality, creativity, craftsmanship and modern streetwear into pieces that represent the spirit of the movement. Clothing can represent where someone comes from, what they believe and how they choose to express their identity.

The long-term vision is a creative and community ecosystem where music, sports, fashion, craftsmanship, natural knowledge, creativity and community intersect. From Sierra Leone to Africa and eventually to the world — Africa to the World. Turn stress into creation.
