~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stuck In My Ways explores the dichotomy between the importance we assign our dreams and their relative unimportance outside of the contexts we imagine for them. A one-track mind can beget a narrow routine and overall perspective of life, and it’s rewarding to poke fun at the arrogance and earnesty of creative (or egocentric) ambitions.

The deeper I dig, the more I laugh at myself, yet such moments of revelation never deter the dream.

SPOTIFY etc.

stuck in my ways

Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Miles began making music in 2016. In 2018 they became a founding member of punk-rock-inspired internet rap group @staydeadboys, and began their solo career in earnest in 2020.

Miles’ music reflects and embraces the contradictions of life and identity, of confidence and humility, of autonomy and limit, of humor and even joy in sadness. When we befriend our pain it dissipates. When we share our parallel journeys from a place of authenticity and ownership, vulnerability is a strength. Art is a spiritual practice that can be as serious or as lightweight as the moment calls for.

Miles is working on their debut album.

In their early teens Miles memorized an encyclopedia of lyrics while falling in love with the writing, craft, and conviction of artists like Big L, Rakim, and Ms. Lauryn Hill. Like many contemporaries (such as JID and Sylvan LaCue), Miles’ work centers on interpreting the spirit and sensibilities of an earlier generation of hip-hop through the lenses of modern aesthetics and of their own life and experiences.
