This week we are proud to welcome Bay Area rapper and Kreative Growth 2023 alumni: Mikey Vee! Get the scoop on his highly anticipated debut album, R.E.M. (Realest Expression of Myself) inspired by 17th century painter Rembrandt and his unlikely source of inspiration.
A virtuoso at translating challenge into ingenuity and imagination, Mikey opens up about his creative process of self imposed artistic limitations as a practice of experimentation and introspection. Dig deep on the anatomy of some of Mikey’s favorite songs on the album like “Danaё”’s disco violin track and greek mythology lore.
Mikey stands as a testament to the breadth over depth argument, demonstrating that being well rounded can be the key to your success. Unpack the J Cole vs Kanye strategy and how he’s taking his impact to the next level as the founder of Golden Oras, an outreach and creative collective.
Find out what the video game Horizon Zero Dawn, the Tesla Bot, and a Baroque painter have in common and Mikey’s laundry list of book recommendations!
