MKSM sees himself as a voice for all people who do not feel they belong. The singer, songwriter, and violinist himself has many identities within him: As an openly gay late resettler, he came to Germany to find his language - he stuttered heavily in the past - and to study classical violin to then become a pop musician in the end. This is precisely why MKSM as a songwriter repeatedly deals with topics such as acceptance, equality, love, and the search for yourself.
In 2019, the young artist won the British "LGBTQ Music Award" as “Newcomer of the Year” and his pride hymn ‘Original Self - Enough is Enough’ was recognized as “Song of the Year”, this song supported Germany's largest LGBTQ organization. This year he was one of the very few European music acts to perform this song on the European Highlights Stage at the virtual "Global Pride 2020" in front of more than 10 million viewers. The GLOBAL PRIDE was supported by queer icons such as Elton John, Adam Lambert and Conchita Wurst.
MKSM also released his first Christmas song in 2019! CHOSEN FAMILY - the first queer Christmas song made in Germany. The timeless Christmas song draws attention to people who are still socially discriminated against for their sexual identity.
