1. MIKE (born Michael Jordan Bonema on October 13th, 1998) is a rapper originally from New Jersey but currently based out of New York City. He usually drops his projects on either of the solstices (June 21st or December 21st) each year.
2. MIKE is a punk rock band from Stockholm, Sweden.
MIKE started in January 2006 by Joel, Fredrik, Viktor and Jesper. The four guys from the southern part of Stockholm/Sweden had all played in different bands for years. Back in 1996 Viktor started a band called No Division with a friend. Jesper joined the band in 2000 (then called Pronoid), where they both played for five years. Joel played in the band Dechas, who released an EP on DayGlo Records in 2000 and an album on Shutdown Records in Australia in 2002. Fredrik had been playing in the band In Memory Of Me and in different bands before that. Jesper and Joel played together from time to time for a while and they both love punk rock, and when Jesper quit Pronoid they started talking about playing punk together. They talked to their old friends Viktor and Fredrik and started jamming some of Jespers songs and the result is what today is known as the band MIKE. After about a year our good friend Fredrik decided to quit the band to play with a reggae band from Uppsala. We then tried out two drummers but decided to pick one of Joel's old friends, Totte. He'd earlier been the drummer in bands like Milk bar, Devoured, Songea and Simpleton. Experience and routine was a fact. He'd actually only been in the band for about a week when he performed his first show with MIKE, and a week after that we went into the studio to record a couple of songs.

You can try all you want to though boy
I'm saving country rap
It's too generic and old
I stay shittin' on 'em
Like they livin' in my commode
Everybody use to tell me I was too down-home
Let me tell you something
'Cause I ain't never gave a shit
And I ain't gonna start
Got a rebel flag on my front lawn
Tote a bunch of guns with the safety off
You can hear me comin', straight pipe exhaust
In the sticks, no shit, I'm a backwoods boss
Gonna take Chris Kyle to pick me off
That Cheatham County blood bubba
You don't wanna piss me off I'm cold with
My aim like I'm poppin' these ducks
Smokin' these tires like I'm burnin' my truck
Killin' these tracks like I want the guts
Got blood on my hands that I don't wash off
Gimmie two big pines and a Milo's tea
And I'm spreadin' sick shit like HIV
I'ma raise this bar for the redneck scene
Make all these boys wish they was me
'Cause all I do is RHEC shit
Like a derby car people call me roll-cage
'cause I stay makin' perfect bars
I got one main objective
Show my fans we winnin'!
'Cause that's the way Upchurch been
Since the very damn beginnin', boy
Country boy, stay killin' it
Beatin' up the track
Gettin' loud to a little bit of
Country noise, talk smack get
Hit 'round here, live life no fear
I'll be damned if I let you get in our way
It ain't the time or place Might wanna think
Twice before you mess with my gang
'Cause we were born this way!
When I say get ready, you better get ready
'Cause after this year
You're never gonna forget me (Never)
Most of these rappers are soft as spaghetti
(What?)
It's 'bout to go down like Jason vs Freddy
(Oh)
I'm killin' these rappers, capitol murder
Half of you bitches, ain't nobody heard of
Slap you around like Tina Turner
Turn the plea down like Bobby Shmurda
I'm on it right now, so better leave me alone
If you get up in my face
Then I'm rockin' your dome
No more bein' nice, them days are all gone
(Over)
I'm makin' a life, that I built on my own
(Mine) it's me and my boys, from RHEC
You know Upchurch the Redneck is
Clean as they be
Just hand us a mic, and drop us a beat
Then step back and watch, as we make history
I think I'm more than a man
I think I'm better than great
I think these haters slept on me
And now they wide and awake!
They rockin' "Back to My Roots"
And they feelin' my grind
Reppin' RHEC until the end of time
We ain't ya average joe's
And we ain't from the slums (Naw)
We from the sticks and the hollers
Where we stand for somethin'
And if you wanna test me, better be grade A
'Cause I'm rollin' with a squad
Like a rebel parade (yeah)
Rockin' dixie land flags
Showin' off our southern pride
If you got a problem with it
We can take it outside (Let's go)
But you wouldn't wanna try me
'cause you wouldn't last a round
We could Rage-N The-Cage
Make it really go down
I ain't promisin' nothin'
I ain't sayin' a word
But if the shots was fired
Then I bet they was heard
(Shots was fired, then I bet they was heard)
