Mike Taveira

Mike Taveira is releasing his new single/video, «Karma». Pairing poetic lyricism with contemporary R&B vocals and catchy hooks, Taveira delivers serious pop prowess on his latest release.

«Karma» is the breakup anthem for anyone who feels like their ex has yet received the karma they deserve. It’s for those of us who have been left broken and questioning the entire relationship, only for our ex-partner to seemingly move along in the world with no trouble. «I do believe in karma and I do believe she is coming. She just likes to wait for the perfect timing and I was impatient, which led to the song», Taveira writes. The pairing video, which was created in collaboration with Canada’s Drag Race star Lemon, showcases how it feels when karma just won’t give you a break: «We wanted to have a simple but effective video to showcase how it feels to constantly receive karma on your end and the result came to dodgeballs being decked at my face». 

Los Angeles-based Mike Taveira made a splash earlier this year with his pansexual pop anthem, «Curious», which grabbed the attention of tastemakers like Billboard Pride, Gay Times, and PRIDE. Growing up without any openly pansexual figures to look up to, Taveira knew that his personal journey needed to be expressed through his own music. In each of the three singles he has released so far, «Heart», «Curious». and, now, «Karma», Taveira showcases his infectious R&B-pop sensibilities while tackling the complexities and vulnerability of sexual identity. With an underlying message that preaches to be true to yourself, whoever you love, whatever you identity as, and whatever life throws your way, Taveira is set to become a force in the evolution of queer pop music.
