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.

What U Say U Are
Mike Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Deep
Deep breath, I need to take a deep breath
I'm scared of tall falls, I embark with steep steps
Yeah, the streets deadly, I gotta keep TEC
Know if I reach readily, I gotta be bent
Gotta not greed heavy, follow steep stress
Talk and don't press me, I'll show you how it get
I could walk you through the recipe, don't gotta be a chef
Big K right where the Timb be, say it with my chest
What you saying don't offend me, he ain't saying how it went
I'm so right they where the Nets be, I'm barely in the West, yeah
Barely getting wrestled, living nightmare in the flesh, see
It's fires why I left, Michael Myers but with dreads
I'm riding til the end, that's what required to make ends meet
When diamonds on my neck, need my ice up on (?)
Fire diet, hit the bench, getting right but for next thing
I don't see a threat, I ain't feel a sweat B, I hardly feel regret
But my heart is never empty, yet
Know karma won't forget me, no armor can protect
Sudden karma give me wet dreams but never get to sex, vexed
Caught up with my pet peeves, you stalling on your step
Hogging on your chest piece
I don't care for money, I don't care for cars
Tell me what you say you are
I ain't with assumptions, can wait 'til tomorrow
Tell me what you say you are
I'm good in the functions, I stay in the bar
I be thuggin' in London, and even in Prague
Tell me what you say you are
I ain't choose who I fuck with, I move with the stars
She said "MIKE, you on fuck-shit, you breaking my heart"
Tell me what you say you are
Tell me what you say you are
Tell me what you say you are
I don't care for money, I don't care for cars
Tell me what you say you are
I ain't with assumptions, can wait 'til tomorrow
Tell me what you say you are
I'm good in the functions, I stay in the bar
I be thuggin' in London, and even in Prague
Tell me what you say you are
I ain't choose who I fuck with, I move with the stars
She said "MIKE, you on fuck-shit, you breaking my heart"
Tell me what you say you are
I don't care for money, I don't care for cars
Tell me what you say you are
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
The lyrics of this song reflect Mike's introspection and self-assuredness, as well as his experiences and emotions. In the first verse, he talks about the challenges he faces in life, both internally and externally. He mentions his fear of taking risks and the dangerous environment he navigates in the streets. He also acknowledges the need to arm himself for protection, but emphasizes the importance of not letting greed consume him. Despite living on the edge and always being ready for whatever comes his way, Mike warns others not to provoke him, as he has the knowledge and experience to handle any situation.
Moving on to the second verse, Mike presents a mix of confidence and vulnerability. He compares himself to Michael Myers, a character known for his relentlessness and dread-inducing presence. He acknowledges the sacrifices he has made, symbolized by leaving the fires behind him. Again, he references his resilience and determination, highlighting that he will continue fighting until the end to meet his goals. Mike understands the value of material possessions, such as diamonds on his neck, but also recognizes the need for self-improvement and discipline. He doesn't see any threats or feel pressured by setbacks, although he is not completely devoid of emotions, as his heart is never empty.
In the chorus, Mike emphasizes his indifference towards money and material possessions. He values authenticity and honesty, urging others to reveal their true selves. He also mentions his confidence in social situations, frequently being present at bars and events, showcasing his thuggish nature not only in London but also outside his comfort zone in Prague. Despite this, he acknowledges that he doesn't choose who he associates with, as he gravitates towards those who shine bright. However, he is also confronted with the consequences of his actions, as someone expresses their disappointment and heartbreak due to his behavior.
Overall, "What U Say U Are" is a self-reflective and self-affirming song that explores Mike's mindset and his understanding of the world around him. He navigates through life's challenges with a sense of resilience, staying true to himself while also acknowledging his flaws and the impact he has on others.
