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.

Mike Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A dark romantic horror with comedic twists
It tells the tale of a fire so deeply rooted in revenge and devastation
Masked with an intricate beauty
It begins somewhere along the borders of Liberia and Côte d'Ivoire
The home of the Dan tribe, a mediocre mask carver
Kin to the tribe, hails the weight of lackluster dexterity
His masks bring him ridicule amongst the community
And to only be met with failed attempts
He grew vengeful
and desperate, consumed by the burning desire to prove himself and gain recognition.
One fateful night, as the moon cast eerie shadows upon the Dan tribe's village,
A mystical encounter took place deep within the heart of the forest.
The carver stumbled upon a hidden cave, shrouded in a mysterious aura,
Whispering secrets of ancient power and forbidden knowledge.
Intrigued and entranced, the carver cautiously entered the cave,
Only to find a peculiar artifact resting on an ancient pedestal,
Glimmering with an otherworldly luminescence.
He reached out, unable to resist the pull of destiny,
As his fingers grazed the surface of the artifact, a surge of energy coursed through his veins.
The carver's mediocre skills were instantly transformed,
His hands guided by an unseen force, carving effortlessly,
Creating masks of unparalleled beauty and masterful craftsmanship.
With each new creation, his revenge grew stronger,
A twisted symbol of his broken spirit and desire for retribution.
Word of the carver's newfound talent quickly spread throughout the village,
As his masks became highly sought after, coveted by collectors near and far.
The once-ridiculed carver rose to prominence, his ego growing with each satisfied customer,
But beneath the surface, the burning desire for vengeance still consumed him.
Despite his newfound success, the carver couldn't escape the haunting memories of his past,
The years of rejection and humiliation he had endured.
With every mask he carved, he sought to surpass his previous achievements,
Driven by a relentless need to prove his worth and regain his shattered pride.
But in his pursuit of revenge, the carver lost sight of the true essence of his art,
The beauty and joy that once inspired him.
His masks became twisted representations of his own inner turmoil,
Each stroke of the carving knife fueling his burning desire for validation.
In the end, the carver's quest for revenge consumed him entirely,
Leaving behind a legacy of masks adorned with a darkness that could not be hidden.
Playtime served as a warning of the dangers of letting our deepest desires turn into destructive obsessions,
And a reminder that true fulfillment comes not from seeking revenge, but from finding joy in the process of creation.
