Moon walker’s newest collaboration with Joan Darwin, We Asked for Destiny, So Destiny Is What We Get, dropped on april eighth 2025. This makes his return as Moon Walker’s previous album released back in 2023. The album includes 9 songs in total, however he is only featured in 3 of them. He has released a few singles in the time between now and his previous album, including New god which gained a decent amount of popularity last year. Moon walkers style of music is bass heavy while providing societal commentary.
We Asked for Destiny, So Destiny Is What We Get starts off with “Salute Your Maker,” which is symbolic of the album’s main tone and kicks everything off. This song explores themes like worship and corruption. The song’s message of faith in the corrupt sets up the next songs in the album. This song is a great opening and helps set the tone masterfully.
His next song “Revolver” is like a ticking time bomb. It constantly sounds like it’s going to go off while keeping a repetitive nature. It has a constant build up like its a mirror of societal pressure until the very end where it finally stops repeating.
His last feature, “Fat Cats,” comments on the rise of elites. This song talks about corruption and how people do nothing to change it. The lyric, “You sell ‘me your soul, and they sell it right back,” emphasizes this point. He talks about how people are used but don’t fight back. This song suggests that every transaction doesn’t just take your money but your soul too.
Although he only worked on 3 songs off the album he released a single a week after. The single is called “Revisionist History Blues”. This song talks about how those in power can rewrite history to fit their needs. It keeps his bass style white adding in new instruments like trumpets. The lyrics in this challenges the way history is taught
Although MoonWalker only has 450,000 monthly listeners he is still popular. His top song Devil has 10 million streams on Spotify along with New god coming in close with 5 million. His newest songs continue to grow his audience further. Even though Moon Walker only worked on three songs in We Asked for Destiny, So Destiny Is What We Get, it’s still worth giving a listen as Joan Darwin continues these themes and ideas.
