Im not gonna lie Mike is probably the most relatable artist ive ever listened to... I seriously dont understand how hes not massively mainstream BUT on the other hand as a listener.. I kindof feel like thats the most beautiful part.

[@Dj_Fader]

This is EVERYTHING! So proud of this guy and glad to be a part of his journey. To the moon brother!

[@RileyBruce_]

Kilmer on the filming side of things you have given everyone the gift of seeing this project grow for so long and I can't thank you enough. To see how you guys have grown up and continued to fearlessly create inspires me as a man to be better in my own life. Appreciate ya'll.

Been on the journey with Mike since A Toast To Tommy days (damn I think I was 20yrs old), Sunday Funday mixtapes, then his debut album These Days. I’m 32 now and witnessing his growth as both an artist and person is truly inspiring. So happy for Mike and his success. Keep it up man!

The lows are about to being going UP on the chart!

[@Ryan-hm3mw]

Couldn’t have been more ready for this than now. A time in my life with so much change, being completely uprooted from where I was living, a breakup, a fallout with a roommate, losing someone close to me…. through it all I’m thankful, thank you for helping me see the beauty in the lows papa Steve.

[@yolover111]

From the song closer, to actually getting this damn far, my goodness mike, kept going and look how far this guy ran. What a journey to watch and continue, thanks for the art.

[@jimmyskoog]

One of the many reasons why I love Mike: *documentary shows everything falling part with those so called friends* Mike: But we’ve been making some heaters out of it, so… Proud of you Mike. 🥲❤

Steve been listening to you since the college humor days, will never forget when the closer album came out and my brother and I were hyped to go buy the cd he's the one who put me on to your music as a kid. Been here for all the waves, every renditon of yourself and music was truly perfect for that point of your life and who you were. I see the growth and evolution in all aspects, what you create is truly appreciated. Its some real shit for those with real eyes. Excited for the lows. Peace&Love to y'all

Mike and the boys thank you for creating such a soulful sound. Very few artist can cultivate that vibe so again, Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Keep going

[@jeromelucero95]

I love how he ties in the songs from the ablum in this documentary. The lows has help me thru almost losing my life in my accident. 2023 was intense from me. From being crossed by my close "friends" to my accident. I'm so thankful for this ablum 💯

[@annacrisci]

This has to be the most well made documentary I have ever seen. Such genuine artistic expression with so much humanity and humility behind is just so impressive. Big week for the local Steves. HUGE week for the long time Steves who got to experience this journey alongside of not only you but Kilmer, Blue, Sace, Marcus, and of course Master Steve.

[@MrCelego007]

The documentary is beyond everything I expected. Heartbreaking to see the part with Foley though! When I ordered some merch and it wasn’t there after like 3/4 months I figured it was just because of the international shipment to the Netherlands, but it all makes sense now. It also feels great to see back parts of the tour. Really took me back to the night in New York. I would have never expected to be able to have a chat with you and take a picture. I will never forget that! Can’t wait to finally hear the album and take it all in. Keep going Mike ✌🏻

[@fFreshMusicAllDay]

Solid documentary Mike and John. Definitely a lot to unpack, you guys went through some stuff this past few years for sure. Had some glimpses of Mike's old rage, glad his spiritual push has helped him develop and be able to handle these situations better. Some real insightful behind the scenes footage of the betrayal Mike had to go through with Foley. Hate to see this situation unfold. Glad you guys can learn from this and push on. Wish your team the best, God bless!

Outta the park with this one ! Great video and very inspirational Mike, Amazing Journey 🔥🙏👏🏼🔥

[@PunchingMan]

Watching Mike go through all the backstabbing is truly heartbreaking, man. You can obviously see how pissed he is about it, but the pain behind the anger is the hardest. He had nothing but love and respect for Foley and Johnny, you can tell Mike is just the guy you can call anytime and he’d be there. Heart on the sleeve. But it’s their loss not his. Keep going!!!!

[@5Rodneyterr]

what happened with johnny?

[@zerickcampbell]

@@5Rodneyterr wondering the same thing...?

[@SayNoToCorn]

@@5Rodneyterrit shows at the 34:00 minute mark his convo about it and with Johnny. Essentially Mike helped facilitate johnnys documentary and got paid a bit out of the production companies cut (not out of Johnnys money) and Johnny found out Mike got paid for it and was upset for some reason as if he felt back stabbed or something over it. Crazy part is mike did all that work and spoke to Netflix and Apple on Johnnys behave set up so much for him and Johnny really thought Mike shouldn’t get compensated for it.

Hi Mike. I’m a huge fan from the UK. I just wanted to say that I love your music I’ve been listening to you now for the last 3-4 years and I’ve been through quite a lot in my life and your music has helped me on so many levels. Quite a lot through the lows and obviously definitely the highs but my main lows were losing my mother and my little brother my 20 year marriage got made redundant twice in the space of one year ended up with alopecia through stress and my financial woes of the last couple of years where I had to file for insolvency so I’ve been through alot of lows and I feel now my life is back on track and I’m slowly but surely getting everything together now. I just watched your new documentary loved it. I also loved life got crazy that made me learn more about you as an artist and where it all came from which was an amazing documentary I loved it and then the new one that just came out now I just finished watching it I loved it and yeah it definitely highlighted your lows and yeah I just wanted to say I’m a big fan I’m looking at trying to maybe come out to the US to come see a gig I’d love to see you live have messaged you before but obviously didn’t get a reply and that was just mainly wanting to find out if you are ever planning to go to the UK. I don’t know how big you are in the UK I can only say from my standpoint you’ve been my number one artist on Spotify for the last two years I’m to the point where my kids get annoyed when they get in the car and all I’m playing is you but yeah I just love the music it’s an escape for me and it makes you look at certain points in your life when they were tough and then you take a step back and then you realise your strength through adversity and that’s what I live by is to never give up and to keep going through it so yeah I’m looking at flights trying to see if I can get the money together I’d love to see you in New York I might even want to look at the Pittsburgh one because my birthday is on the 1st of September and that would be close to my birthday in fact I think it’s the actual Miami one I believe is on the 31st which is the day before my birthday so I’m going to look at maybe trying to do that but yeah you may not read this or respond in any which way but I just want to let you know that I appreciate you and I appreciate everything that you do I’m trying to buy some of your merchandise as well but you know your stuff sells out so quickly I loved they keep going T-shirts that you wore in the new documentary especially the blue one so I’m trying to find that somewhere but when I can see it’s everything’s low stock so I don’t think I’m going to be able to get any of stock but yeah maybe it will restock at some stage and then I can maybe get something but yeah thanks for everything and keep doing what you're doing my friend you're helping a lot of people and you've definitely helped me so thank you I’ll keep going 👍
