We were lucky to catch up with Mikey The Legend recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Mikey, thanks for joining us today. If you could go back in time do you wish you had started your creative career sooner or later?
I have always had a creative imagination and a love to entertain other. But finding avenues to harness it have always been difficult. Plus sometimes REAL life takes over and before you know it 30 years go by. But the passion and quest to create never dies. Maybe I would be in a different place if I started earlier. But I am loving the experience even more now because I had to wait.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
Having worked on a successful terrestrial radio show (“The Creedence & Bishop Show”) and being allowed the freedom to grow creatively as a producer. I was devastated after several top rated years the company let us go due to money issues. I moved on to other far less creative endeavors. Until 2020 came around and due to plenty of down time. Some of my radio friends and I started doing our old radio show live via ZOOM on Youtube. That was fun and had a small following. But once myself and Creedence started doing live police chase and court commentary/reactions that is where we found our niche and amazing fans.
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
The daily emails we get from our viewers on how we helped them through the toughest times in their lives. Just knowing I help people laugh and smile even for just a few hours a day pushes me to always give my all.
Can you share your view on NFTs? (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice)
Well I don’t know too much about NFTs but sometimes during my streams I draw reenactments (badly) of what is being talked about in the video. I call them MFTs and fans take screen shots of them and the first person to post them in the discord owns it. They are worth as much as a NFT is.
