Mike D shares live video for Secrets Pts. I & II from Thank You

Mike D has released a video for 'Secrets Pts. I & II', two songs from 'Thank You', his first solo album. Rolling Stone reported the release on 7 October 2026. The news puts two album tracks in a single visual.

The clip was directed by Ari Marcopoulos. It uses footage from a show by Mike D 5D at the Knockdown Center in New York. The setting is a live room, not a film set.

That live basis shapes what viewers see. The camera stays with the performance. There is no separate story cut in around the music.

Marcopoulos brings a long working history to the job. He photographed the Beastie Boys between 1991 and 1996. He also directed the group's video for 'Something's Got to Give'. The director's role here covers shot choice, pacing and edit, the tools that decide how a gig feels on screen.

'Thank You' is described as Mike D's debut as a solo artist. In industry terms, that means a first full album issued under his own name. The two 'Secrets' tracks appear on that album as a linked pair. Pt. I and Pt. II signal two connected songs, played in sequence rather than as separate singles.

Pitchfork published its review of 'Thank You' on 28 August 2026. Pitchfork In its piece, the outlet quoted the start of 'Secrets, Pt. 1'. The line runs: "Got secrets but I'm happy / Might cry, might laugh".

The October video follows earlier solo activity this year. Mike D released a solo single titled 'What We Got' in May, as reported by Consequence. That single arrived first. The album review followed in August. The new video extends that sequence into autumn.

For a newcomer, the timeline is easy to follow. May brought the single. Late August brought coverage of the album. Early October brought the live visual for two of its tracks.

A video of this kind has a practical job. It gives streaming services a visual to carry the songs. It also gives people who were not in the room a way to see the show.

For fans, this means a compact package. Two songs. One room. A familiar name behind the camera. The gig does the talking.
