MOJO is celebrated for its thorough exploration of both mainstream and niche musical artists, influencing other publications like Blender and Uncut. Esteemed music critics such as Charles Shaar Murray, Greil Marcus, Nick Kent, and Jon Savage have contributed to its content. The magazine's founding editor was Paul Du Noyer, followed by notable successors like Mat Snow, Paul Trynka, and Pat Gilbert.
