97.5 NOW FM (Lansing, MI): Mike Posner came to visit the station today! I was already a fan (“Cheated” was my break up anthem of the year last year), but now I’m an even bigger fan and here’s why:
- Mike Posner used to do Yoga (and is working on his headstand)
- He keeps his trophies and awards at his mom’s house in Michigan
- He wants to use his talent to help make the world a better place
- He just started learning how to play guitar (and is good!)
- He still sleeps in his childhood bed when he comes home to visit (so his feet hang off the foot of the bed)
- He’s a humanitarian – Every copy of his upcoming album Pages that is sold, a meal will go to a child in need
- He came up with the idea to feed a child in need over a bad airplane meal on one of his flights
- He loves/appreciates his fans- there were a lot of fans that worked at the station today and he requested to play a few songs for everyone that worked at the station, which was AWESOME
- He had the jerseys he’s wearing in the music video for “Top of the World” specially made so he could have ‘Posner’ written on the back
- He’s a Tracy Chapman fan
- I know it’s a top 10, but I’m adding my own! Me and Mike Posner look GOOD standing next to each other! Just saying! (Mike, hit a girl up!)
Here’s our interview today and a song he just wrote and played for us called “Fingertip”!
