• Album Review: Mon Rovîa, 'Bloodline' | Folk Alley | Jan. 9, 2026, 4:03 a.m.
Swirling melodies, hypnotic rhythms, and joyous harmonies create a mesmerizing soundscape on Mon Rovîa’s cinematic debut album 'Bloodline.' The Liberian-born singer, raised in the US, chronicles his own journey from war-torn Liberia to his coming-of-age in various communities abroad and in the US. In the 16 songs on the album, he peers into the unrest and search for belonging that lies deep in every individual’s and every society’s heart.
