Podcasts about mykele deville

In this week's story, tellers McKenzie Chinn and Mykele Deville look back at the way they found each other through the chaos and violence of the world around them.

Mykele Deville joins the show this week to discuss how he copes with the effects of systemic racism and inter-generational trauma on mental health. In particular, the Chicago artist discusses how these stresses can result in a core belief of being unlovable. The Growing Concerns Poetry Collective artist also talks about how he addresses social justice in his music while making sure that he creates “freedoms” for himself to be able to engage in the self-care that he needs to help bolster his mental health. Presented by Consequence of Sound and Sound Mind Live, Going There with Dr. Mike is a new interview podcast series in which clinical psychologist and life coach Dr. Mike Friedman talks with musicians about the crossroads where music and mental health meet.

Lambda Award-winning writer and activist Michelle Tea has always considered herself “radical queer,” – those outside-of-the-mainstream LGBTQ folks who have nothing left to lose and make their own rules about everything. As she describes it in an essay for Buzzfeed, for Tea and the queer friends she shared a radical subculture with, “that meant prioritizing freedom, glorifying poverty, experimenting with our bodies in every way possible. The possibility of having children was raised only to highlight how absurd that would be….[we] mostly viewed kids as a potential drag on [our] liberties, or simply an impossibility.” Which is why almost everyone who knew her was shocked when she suddenly decided to get pregnant and become a parent at 40 years old – while single, uninsured, and living in an expensive city and working a somewhat unstable job. Spoiler alert: It’s now several years later and parenthood has ultimately worked out well for Tea and she’s learned some important lessons and made some unexpected (straight!) friends along the way. She shares her adventures on this episode.  Later in the show, Chicago-based rapper and actor Mykele Deville stop by the studio to discuss his role as Verb in the rousing production of Idris Goodwin’s “Hype Man: A Break Beat Play” at Actors Theatre of Louisville, which runs thru October 13th.

Mykele Deville is hot right now, and for good reason. His music is smart, positive, and full of hope. He just recently took Chicago by storm with his new album titled Maintain and sold out Lincoln Hall. He talks about how Hollywood is a dinosaur right now, becoming more and more obsolete. We talk about how Jordan Peele is the new Horror master, making original films and television for a new woke generation. We also discuss bi-racial relationships in both the straight and gay communities. Lindsey also pitches her all-inclusive "Standard Hockey Song" Check out Mykele's new record available at No Trend Records and LIVE IN THE PRESENT (as he would say). He's a charmer and we really enjoyed talking to him.

Mykele Deville is an actor, a poet, an author, a teacher, and a hip hop artist. He talks about his latest album Maintain, and about growing up on Chicago's West Side. And you don't need to go to Japan to enjoy the fragile beauty of cherry blossoms. Just head to Chicago's Jackson Park.

Chicago artist Mykele Deville has his feet firmly planted in the theater, poetry and music scenes. He has embraced the DIY communal ethos of Chicago's independent art scene and the scene has fully embraced him back. Mykele has long been a house hold name among many underground and mid-size venues in Chicago, and now the word is spreading beyond his area code. AfroPunk premiered his new video and Billboard streamed his new album "Maintain." The album is a concise, powerful and vivacious statement against toxic masculinity, and affirmation of the values of cultivating community through art and self-expression. Jill Hopkins spoke with Mykele about the new album, the intersection between theater and music, the radical and rebellious nature of his art, and perseverance in Black communities. The album release show takes place Sunday, 3/3 at Lincoln Hall. For more info about Mykele Deville, visit: https://mykeledeville.com

Choon Group contributor Aaron Stephenson interviews Chicago rapper Mykele Deville in the lead up to the release of his latest album, "Maintain."

From Easy Rider to Forrest Gump and Wayne's World to Woodstock, the legacy of Jimi Hendrix has certainly been aided by the eternal power of cinema. Host Ernest Wilkins is joined by musician and actor Mykele Deville, Daily Grindhouse editor Mike Vanderbilt, and Consequence of Sound Editor-in-Chief Michael Roffman to trace back the lineage of the legend on celluloid. However, that lineage is parallel to a long standing relationship with pop music and film, one that may have been exacerbated by the late axeman himself. To find out, the four step out to enjoy a 30,000 foot view and discuss the larger cultural impact of music in film and how Hendrix’s music itself is interwoven into American culture through iconic movie moments.
