Review
Alright, fellow rebels, let's talk about Mk.gee's debut album, "Two Star & The Dream Police," which hit the scene on February 9, 2024. This record is a melting pot of bedroom pop, indie, and alternative, showing off Mk.gee's impressive growth and versatility. Imagine Prince strumming in your living room while Bon Iver chills in the corner – it's that kind of intimate yet expansive vibe.
The album kicks off with five dope singles: "Candy," "How Many Miles," "Are You Looking Up," "You Got It," and the title track "Dream Police." These tracks are killer with their innovative production and Mk.gee's one-of-a-kind vocals. "How Many Miles" stands out with its R&B vibe and lyrics that hit you right in the feels about feeling lost and finding your way. Mk.gee's guitar playing intertwined with murky, twitchy mixes creates a soundscape that refuses to stay still – it's like trying to catch lightning in a bottle. Critics are raving, comparing him to the likes of Jai Paul and Bon Iver for his ability to spin intricate, beautiful pop from complex compositions.
All in all, this debut is a major leap for Mk.gee and a must-listen for anyone hunting for fresh, original sounds in the indie and alt scenes. - Sydney
