MIKE has become my favorite hip hop artist this past year. I was having a hard time finding new hip hop that I really liked every element from production, lyricism, delivery, etc. When first hearing MIKE, instantly that feeling was quelled. His release, Tears of Joy was my introduction and it was on repeat most of last winter. Weight of the World came out at the beginning of the summer and feels a lot heavier to me. Maybe it’s just the timing and everything going on, but it’s felt much more welcoming recently.

This is my AOTY. MIKE went 24/24.
Each track is unique and equally heartfelt, lyrics are straight poetry, and there's variety but still within a consistent theme.
I've listened to this album front to back at least 50 times since it was released.
Can't wait to hear it live in May.

had a hard time falling asleep last night, so i made some sleepytime tea (with immune-boosting echinacea!) and managed to finally wind down with the help of MIKE’s latest solo release. his languid delivery has always been a source of comfort for me, and his ability to pack entire lives of emotion into a handful of bars is paralleled only by frequent collaborator, earl sweatshirt. it’s one of his best works, but ā€œsnake charmā€ is a highlight for me :)

I’m recommending the brand I work for, it’s most of what I wear and I’m really excited about what we are working on. The crew necks fit cozy like a sweater and look good with a slim fit or baggy pant. The pants come in a linen, corduroy and what I describe as a more comfortable karate pant. The yellow linens are great at home or spring/summer wears, navy cords are lightweight but thick & warm and perfect for the colder months and the black pants are the year-rounder. We are finishing up our board designs for the spring and looking forward to getting those out.

I found this through one of the members other projects, Dead Sullivan, who is definitely worth checking out as well. I love this record, slowcore and indie pop collide super well on this one like as if hovvdy and early tegan & sara were vibing. Madeline’s voice feels familiar throughout like you’ve heard the songs before while still feeling original. Good autumn record.

My favorite cold brew and now I can buy it for take home :) More on the nutty almost boozey side but kicks in the AM, black over ice or sometimes just straight from the jug lol. If you’re in portland, it’s my personal favorite because I drink cold but I would also suggest speckled ax for hot and the dark roast Sock Saunders for a take home bag. Very classic roast like the smell of your parents old Folgers and super delicious.
