Global Pop Sensation mikah Unveils 'Homesick', An Introspective Trilogy on Finding Home Within Oneself

Japanese-American singer-songwriter and global fashion icon mikah completes his 'Homesick' trilogy with the release of "In Between" and "Dream", the final two chapters of a deeply personal search for "home"—a theme shaped by mikah's own journey across continents. Together with the previously released lead single, "Escape", these three tracks chronicle a "journey of the heart", centered on the idea of home: what it is, what it means, and where it truly lives.

The trilogy began with "Escape"—released last month—which introduced mikah's story of departing his birthplace with the encouragement of his family, setting off to pursue a dream that took him far from everything familiar. The track captures the emotional tension between the urge to chase one's dreams and the lingering attachment to home, establishing the overarching arc of the trilogy: departure, wandering, and ultimately redefinition. 

The second chapter, "In Between", explores the restless urge to leave the familiar behind in search of something new. Though the track carries a warm acoustic and country-inspired sound, its lyric "it's just me and my suitcase" vividly reflect a heart wavering between dreams and reality. Musically, it marks a new experiment for mikah, as he incorporates acoustic and country textures into his repertoire.

The trilogy culminates with "Dream", the focus track and emotional resolution of the project. Here, mikah examines how the meaning of home can shift as one grows—sometimes becoming less of a physical destination and more of an inner sense of clarity and self-acceptance. "Dream" is the trilogy's most pop-forward and uplifting track, yet it carries the quiet realisation that the perfect future we imagine may not exist in reality. Still, with the repeated line "Dreaming feels like home," the song lands on a note of hope and warmth, suggesting that home may ultimately be something we find within ourselves. As mikah reflects, "A perfect future may not exist in reality — that's why we can only see it in our dreams."

The music video for "Dream", like the one for ""Escape", was created by a French creative team and filmed entirely on location in Tokyo, visually mirroring the internal transformation at the heart of the song. Scenes of mikah navigating Shibuya Crossing, trains, taxis, and twilight cityscapes alone capture subtle emotional shifts as he quietly finds his way back to himself. Though it concludes the narrative introduced in "Escape", the "Dream" music video stands as a complete visual work of its own, cinematic and introspective.

As the trilogy comes to a close, "Dream" captures the moment mikah finally turns inward, discovering the home he's been chasing all along—an inner place of clarity, growth, and self-return.
