Met welke oude camera is dit gefilmd?

I’ve been listening to him since he dropped ‘Fool’ and I was delightfully shocked when ‘Candy’ dropped. The way he was able to bend and blend so many genres from country to 80s synth pop to 90’s r&b, and create that musical soundscape he did on that album is just mind-blowing. I really think those ‘Absolutely’ sessions had a huge influence on how he went about this album. There’s some similarly disruptive about those two albums that i absolutely admire

Ik vond JHus ook heel dope.

love it! vond zelf big thief bijzonder mooi én positief verrast door teezo, die had ik wel graag in de melkweg willen zien!

Thanx Sagid! Dankzij jou toch een indruk van wat acts die ik niet zag 👍😎

💯💯💯💯💯

Wat een ontzettend leuk overzicht van een festival line-up waar ik vooraf al enigsinds sceptisch over was, en toen cancelde Queens of the Stone Age en The Smile ook nog eens... Heb er gelukkig uiteindelijk een leuk wel een leuk weekend van kunnen maken, en een aantal pareltjes leren kennen door vooraf goed te in te luisteren zoals jij aan het begin ook zei gedaan te hebben! De montage is trouwens echt geweldig en de camera's zijn goedgesynchroniseerd; erg knap en de oude camcorder voegt wat toe. Heb meteen geabonneerd :) Fred Again en Grandson waren mijn highlights van het weekend. Spiritbox was ook te gek (toch nog een beetje metal). Teddy Swims was ook erg goed live! Heb helaas Glass Beams grotendeels gemist omdat het tegelijk was met Miles Kane (hele goede show overigens)

I feel like it’s pretty easy to describe. It’s if Genesis had an R+B vocalist.

Oke net begonnen met de video maar hoop echt dat je Rachel Chinouriri laat zien 🥹

ik klikte dit aan met de gedachte waar wil mijn YT algoritme mij nu weer naar laten kijken. maar al na 2 minuten was ik helemaal into het filmpje. genoeg diepte maar ook genoeg oppervlakkigheid en losheid. het voelt alsof de interviewster zichzelf neit al te serieus neemt maar haar werk wel en dat is erg fijn om naar te kijken. en de edit maakt het interessant genoeg om 20 minuten naar te kijken. mijn support heb je. ga zo door en wees trots op wat je maakt

Dit is vet!

sagid!! dit zit zo goed in elkaar wauw, de twee verschillende cameras, je interview skills, de edit alles😍 luister nu een jaar lang je podcast met shay en heb echt heimwee naar moment dat ik nog voor me gevoel oneindig veel afleveringen had, nu is het maandag heel obsessief spotify refreshen. Je bent mega inspirerend, je youtube videos zijn van zulke hoge kwaliteit, wens je echt al het geluk en succes<3333

SOO GLAD UR TALKING ABT HIM!! He's so quickly become my favorite artist after one of his songs came up on my discover shuffle, usually I just play music in the background of my day to day tasks but I had to pause and do a deep dive into his stuff after hearing Alesis. I saw one review of his music saying there were a lot of imperfections to the album's sound but I think that's what really makes his studio albums stand out so much to me, NOT TO MENTION HIS LIVE PREFORMANCES WOW.

I think what makes an artist really hit is their relevance to the cultural moment. I think mk.gee is tuning into exactly what people want to see and hear from a musician. Hes returning to the mythical and cryptic rockstar archetype. He's giving instrumental expressiveness and experimentation the spotlight, which is in some ways feeling rare nowadays in pop. He also appeals to that counter culter feel. That album is angsty in a way that feels authentic. Sort of reminds me of kurt kobain's stage presence and give-no-shits attitude. This is also reflected in the fact that he keeps his highly praised live recordings off of major streaming platforms besides youtube. It both seems like a jab at spotify and a lack of desperation from him. Hes not clamoring to give fans what they are begging for in all his comment sections. Hes not just approaching the songwriting in a refreshing way, hes changing up how artists deal with fame in the modern day. So yeah I too am obsessed lol. I think he appeals to aspiring artists like myself because he shows a career path where you can somewhat play by your own rules, and find success by making simple changes to the established formula. Ok I'm not done. This is where I really yap. I think what's also interesting is a comment he made in that interview audio, where he says 2 star is supposed to feel like a warped 80s album, or something along those lines. That genre or asthetic is immediately apparent, and I think it's hitting a lot of Gen z-er aspiring artists very hard, for a very specific reason. A strange shared generational experience we have is being fed 80s nostalgia media constantly. It's in our TV shows, movies, music, games. By the hand of corporations looking to farm our parents, we all became obsessed. Look how awesome Stranger Things is! Thor's new movie is sooo 80s! Guardians of the Galaxy is sooo 80s! You love the 80s! And while we thought it was cool on a surface level, there was an uncanny shallowness to it. I think it unsettled us deep down. We are being shown the glory of an era we didn't get to live through. Like hey, sorry you missed the party, but we had a LOT of fun back in the day. Have fun dealing with the financial and systemic aftermath! And so there's something melancholic at the heart of nostalgiac media for pretty much every age group, as together we traverse dark and unfulfilling times. Pacifying ourselves on echoes of the past. Okay I'm getting a little corny. But I think mk.gee taps straight into that emotion we barely ever perceive but intensely feel. And his lyrics reflect this too. His most famous song "Are You Looking Up" seems to be about someone in search of purpose, mourning wasted time and waiting for a guiding light to pull them out of confusion. Songs like Candy to me seem like a commentary on disassociation, with recurring lyrics about fantasizing and wasting time in dysfunctional relationships. This theme about a lost generation is just hitting so hard nowadays for gen z, after so many of our societal structures and culture are at best questionable. Though this issue can be applied to many places, it feels like a distinctly American problem, which I think mkgee also taps into by alluding to classic american rock, indie and r&b subgenres, like grunge. So yeah long story short, I think this dude might be onto something lol.

Just got tickets for his show too. It's weird home some people completely get this album and others don't. I've been obsessed since I heard it a month ago despite being a fan of his since "pronounced Mk.ee".

huge prince fan here, huge mkgee fan too, have no joked streamed his last album over 400 times all the way through

He seems shy much like Prince was in his early interviews. I see and hear a lot of similarities. Love Mk.gee

Agree big time. No skips for Two Stars, and live is even better....

MKGEE. MKGEE. MKGEE I LUVVVVV HIMMM

Community and love are so intertwined ❤

another artist I see giving props is John Mayer. He follows him on ig and likes a ton of his posts. I know that's not necessarily a ton to go off of but a guitarist of his caliber has had mk.gee on his radar. His genius is currently in the phase of "if you know you know" but he's been getting the recognition he deserves.

I love this video, I found him back in 2018 too. It feels great to see more people recognizing him and watching his growth. New subscriber

Thanks for making this video

Mk.gee has flipped my fucking world upside down. He's changed the way I think ab music and I envy that mans brain every single time I try to make anything. Can't wait to see him in Amsterdam this year!!

please make more music related videos, this was fantastic! What a breath of fresh air to see a content creator who clearly cares about the direction music is moving in. great stuff!

Love your presentation of all the ways Mkgee has really found and made his own lane, also your voice is really soothing. Cheers!

i’ve been absolutely obsessed with his latest album, something magical & exciting is happening!
