props to the sound engineer for keeping the album's aesthetics
But where is his voice?
real
@@DubsMood Yeah vocals are way too far back. I think they're definitely built to SIT in the mix and not be front and center like most modern pop but the live sound makes it sit too far back to the point where you are kind of straining to hear anything he says.
Idk this sounds pretty different from the studio version
@@nevadanate4957 that may have something to do with the fact that it's live. 😂 Lol sorry for the sass. I just really like this version
Can't believe this dude is on Jimmy Kimmel. Truly a special album.
It's not too surprising considering the mega stars he's worked with. He produced the kids are growing up by Kid Laroi recently too
He was on jimmy Fallon 2 years ago.
Dijon was on Fallon. This is mikes solo debut
@@mcburneyb okay, but on jimmy Fallon he was playing a song NAMED AFTER HIM, that he COWROTE, and SANG bgv for. That's just as special. We all can see that this is his solo debut, but the initial comment doesn't mention whether it's a solo debut or not. Just letting the op know that he was on jimmy Fallon just in case he missed it.
@@RaeUltra but he was there with dijon, this is something he accomplished due to his own career
The world is looking at a superstar in the making
Album of the year
Decade*
AGREED
amen brother
Hands down
easily
It‘s crazy how the sounds on this album are so organic and at some points irreproducible, that every single performance will probably sound totally different
lol like when he starts vacuuming? I think he’s trolling us
that's the goal baby!!!!
And thats how you tell the music is played with expression, we never feel the same way either:)
it’s intentional. There are lives where it sounds the same
It's definitely reproducible, he's often running a very simple pedal board. The main thing that accomplishes the sound is running the guitar through an old 4-track mixer. I love his sound but there isn't some otherworldly 'organic' source - just some really smart equipment choices! :)
He is gonna be massive. Fr so privileged to be here early on
i dont wanna brag, but i wanna brag: i know him since 2021 :D
Cringe
2016 babyyy 😊
he's playing kimmel this isn't "early on" lol
lol bros been around for a minute
Insane how much better this version is than the album cut
We need this version on streaming platforms NOW
BEGGING!!!!!
I love his aesthetics of a garden caretaker on a rainy afternoon at the farm
Someone else called it “sexy homeless man”
Kurt Cobain vibes fr💅
“gas station hot”
reminds me of that one dude in stardew valley tbh
I've had this album on repeat for a month. I haven't felt this type of immediate love and adoration for an artist since Bon Iver release, "For Emma, Forever Ago".
YES OMG
Bon Jovi slaps though
@@stalwartzero7001 true story
Happy you feel this way, Mkgee was actually on tour with bon over when Dijon was touring with them, he’s part of the band
There is a serious sonic parallel to Bon Iver. Yeah. Thank you yes
Love how he backs out of the light at the end into the darkness
Thank god for this man. People need to understand how truly incredible this sound is.
the guitar solo is the absolute cleanest glassiest guitar sound i've ever heard. sounds like an old rockman headphone amp from back in the day.
we are not fully ready for the impact this album is going to have on music.
that's what i'm saying!
I am
Oh please lol
😂
everything you're hearing here was pioneered almost a decade ago lmao both the self titled bon iver album and 22 a million sound exactly like this
top 10 most nonchalant guys ever. he does not look fazed he’s on live television
He's the batman of music
This version needs to be on spotify
The saviour of music is that you?
one of the best performances on Jimmy Kimmel
he deserves every ounce of love and support so i'm stoked to see him on kimmel
Welcome back 80's new wave, we've missed you...
Hope you stay for a while.
New wave? This is more like 80’s Michael Bolton if he tried too hard to be experimental.
@@0228christianthere's elements of it...
I guess your description fits better, but it's kinda hard to categorize the 80's, they were strange to say the least (in the best way possible).
This does remind me of Stings solo work a lot.
@@0228christian laughs in Pat Metheny Group
More like Peter Cetera with 80s synth fusion pop mixed in.
@@HootHinge Exactly)
This man is an absolute gem of a find.
The dude inventing new music... Madness. Congrats Mk.gee. love the album.
He’s kind of just Bon Iver
Nah
Not inventing new music. Bon Iver meets Phil Collins. That’s not to say he doesn’t make amazing music, he really does, and his guitar tone and playing are great.
inventing lol
@@zechs5079 He is def creating new sounds that guitars haven't made before. Now, is that inventing or experimenting? Or both? Who cares. People are too quick to hold new artists back and try to compare 'similar sounds' to older artists. At the end of the day, music today is alive because of Mk.gee
Dude on clarinet slays. One of the better late night performances ever probably
That's a soprano sax as a heads up
@@JacobHalfman - its Sam Gendel on sax, right? Dude has worked with Blake Mills & Joachim Cooder previously.
It was squidward, dawg.
I’m in love with every sound that comes out of his imagination
The sax and the guitar bring back the fondest memories of Joni with Wayne Shorter. No matter the times, someone out there is always making great music. To me, at least, that is a testament to our way of life. Thank you.
I was getting Hejira vibes off the sax/guitar
Never heard of this guy but I am instantly all in. Also is that freakin Sam Gendel????? BONUS POINTS
Yelled when Sam Gendel came into view!!! What a great performance all around but hella bonus points indeed 🤠
I thought I recognized him!! 2019 me geeking out rn
Woah this is crazy
mk.gee mk.gee mk.gee 🎶🎶🎶
laundry day reference?
@@_enad_ yes 🫡
@@_enad_thats how i got into him😭😭
Daundry Lay
@@rickyortago8335same here, I saw laundry day’s IG reel and I was addicted to the voice
Found out about Mk.gee literally 2 days ago and so awesome to see him coming up. Such a cool vibe.
Met this guy outside of a Dijon show a few years ago
Feels raw and real. Love this
Been following since 2020 on spotify, i feel like a proud dad.
Cringe
@@okcool2531 whats cringe is you taking the time to reply to this comment

The Batman of Music
awesome comment man its almost like ive seen it somewhere else
@@Brettg491Two Star and the Comment Police
It bears repeating
@@cobykap. please make sure you attain that degree because your music career is as dead as oj
@@Brettg491 oh he MAD mad
*THIS IS THE BEST SONG I EVER HEARD*
*IM NOT JOKING*
his music will continue to move mountains in music to come.
Whatever it is he’s forcing that guitar to do -I’m into it.
Gentle distorted vibes. Love it man love it.
The best to ever do it.
My guy made it ! Love me some Mk.gee and I love this album so much, the atmosphere of his music is literal magic.. him and Dijon are the coolest
haven't like an artist for probably 6 years now, can't stop listening to mk.gee
the best
Major Bon Iver vibes at the end. Amazing album and song.
That performance transported me to some mystical, magical place I've never been to before. Wow!
Tonight is the first time I've ever heard this song. Came up on my fyp on TikTok. Can't stop listening... it's soooo good!
every live performance of this song just keeps getting better
That ending was phenomenal
Here because I came across this video. Immediately I'm like I'm loving this song. Reminds me of 80s .
This kid is everything. Wow. ❤ I’m not crying YOU’RE crying!!!
He’s really come a long way 🥹
found the "knew him before everyone else here" comment
absolutley obsessed with this song
MK. GEE MY GOAT!!!! 🐐🐐🐐🐐
What a gem. And I thought modern music was dead.. Thank you for changing my mind.
been a fan for years and it’s so surreal to see how far he’s come, very very deserved. truly feels like mk.gee is a breath of fresh air in the current music scene and that’s he’s cultivating a sound totally his own. super proud of him and i can only hope he gains more recognition.
the ultimate vibe
Thanks Jimmy Kimmel for having him on your show.. I have not stopped listening to this boy sing since 🩷
His name made me think of that book called Maniac Magee I read when I was a kid in school.
Insane… not even 24 hours in and I am inspired and in awe.
The best thing to ever be on Kimmel... including Jimmy.
Seeing how far this dude has come from the days of a "Museum of Contradiction" and earlier singles is truly a privilege. I knew then and now the whole world knows that he is truly special.
Yeah, I am convinced, this guy is a legend. Instant fan.
We making it out the batcave with this one
Mk.Gee forever baby, forever 🌹
最後の去り方、マジでカッコ良すぎるだろ
Love this. Truly something different. Mystical to me. The ending truly emotional. Thanks for having him🙏
Sounds like 80’ music 🎵 👍😍
Like Prince meets Justin Beiber’s voice 🥰
It’s crazy that a guy took the most generic music aesthetic of that decade and made it incredible
@@Syngekhoomei Incredible?
Listening to him, I feel the way I felt first time I listened to artists like Bon Iver, The Weeknd, and The 1975.
God damn! So proud he's getting some real eyes on him! Just found about him in march. Been obsessed
Bringing chorus back
That JC120 life
@@jackiedaytona7681JC40 for me Mr. Daytona I'm not ready to have a full on JC120 staring at me while I sleep. Can I get an old fashioned sir?
This live performance is better than all his albums. The song itself isn’t bad, it’s good but here is where it shines the most.
I always think the other musicians - especially when they are so few - should be credited too. Lovely to see the productive (but still with great quality) Sam Gendel also popping up here! Both versatile and with an unmistakable sound. Check him out if you don't know ~
I've been a fan since his first album and always wanted him to have more recognition. Now, he's rising and I'll keep supporting his art. Watching him evolve has been a blessing.
I'm in the same boat. I saw him live twice some years back. My introduction to him was on stage. I was impressed. His style was reminiscent of 70s and 80s but it's changed and has a very unique sound now. While I admittedly like the old sound, the new sound is something I'm adapting to, but I do admire the band trying something different.
@@chromatinkiss Oh lucky you, I've never seen him live, it's my dream tho but ... I'm not from the US. Hopefully I will one day soon. I'd love him to play songs from every album cuz I'm truly a fan of all of his work :)
His voice is so raw and moving.
YESSSSSSS!!! so proud of this guy
so emotional. there are not many artist out there that speaks directly with my heart like he does
so amazing to watch mike grow over the years… the confidence you see today is truly remarkable. we love u mike!
Here since I heard him on Soulection
Proud of Him
Do you remember which soulection ep ?
@@wyetti481
Sam Gendel too ❤️❤️ Too much talent on one stage !!!
mk.gee will be one of the biggest i sware
His music is so raw I love it

Praise the lord 🙌 You deserve this this buddy, I hope you can feel the weight of this moment in your heart 🙏🏻
Thank you Jimmy for uploading this.. many of us including myself was waiting for this upload. ✌️😎
Been a fan for a long while now, so proud to see this man up here
greatest artist of our generation
saw him open for wallows in 2019 so epic to see him here now - mkgee is just so frickin awesome!!
just discovered the song today on Spotify, in love.
our mike 🙌
Mk.gee came from the future to get us up to speed
Let’s GOOO a year ago my boy was underground
i think i’ve listened to the album about 50 times
Let's go mk.gee!!!!!! That was amazing
mk.gee, dijon, matt champion, and their sound of music at large is so so heavily inspiring. they are a new movement. i can't get enough of it
After listening to this version I was released from prison, given back my rights, and my ex wife wrote me a letter that she needs me back thanks Mk.gee
aaaa ive always loved are u looking up! been waiting for this moment!! he deserves all the recognition :>
Stocks are at an all time high
This is much needed. Thank you.
Big up Mk.Gee well deserved bro
I found this guy shuffling through youtube's radio giving me random instrumentals. I Iiked a particular song, went on with my life. Only a couple months later, his album drops. Of course, only knowing one song (and it being just instruments) I thought "why am I being suggested this album from an artist I don't know?"
And then I pressed play.
I'm bummed I forgot to check for a vinyl release as this is my FAVORITE album release in a very very long time. Love it!
So good and so cool walking in from the shadows and backing out at the end. What a performance. This guy better be an astronaut because he is heading for the stars!
I love mkgee
Love how he just vanishes into the smoke and shadows in the end :D incredible performance
Such a great album
A one of kind musician
This has an 80's vibe to it.
