I clicked on this video because I used to have a really sustained interest in the art of ancient cultures as a kid, especially from the Aztecs. The mask on the thumbnail instantly drew me in. Wasn’t sure what to expect from this video, having never heard of MIKE or any of his music, and to be completely honest I didn’t understand it at first. But MIKE’s flow still had me coming back because of how different it sounded from other artists, with how eerily calm it was. Now this album is one of my go to’s for when I’m chilling at home, doing chores, homework, whatever. I used to absolutely despise rap because I thought it was just a bunch of lyrics talking about meaningless stuff (gucci gang certainly didn’t help), but songs like DUCKWORTH. (Especially with my nickname lol), 3005 or Doomsday remind me that rap can be just as rhythmically and melodically beautiful as any other genre, and oftentimes the lyrics are far more honest than other artists can bear to admit. This album’s hazy, distorted sound makes me think about the past, about how much I want to go back and fix things, how many times I’ve held myself back for fear of overextending, those lovely, lonely days where the colors of the sunset were just as mixed up as my feelings…realizing that the part of me that loves this kind of music has been buried for far too long. “How long have you denied that burning desire?” Too long, MIKE. Far too long. ❤️🔥
