Rave culture, at its heart, has always been a haven for those who do not fit into conventional molds. It thrives on inclusion, freedom, and self-expression, and this is where the story of a.k.a. skips—formerly known as Ducky—fits like a jigsaw puzzle piece.
It’s easy to spot the courageous journey of CK Neiman. His experiences, from addiction to sobriety, from gender dysphoria to self-acceptance, reflect the ever-evolving landscape of gender, identity, and art. The debut photo book, i want to rest and be held by someone who loves me, is more than a collection of photographs. It’s a poignant expression of Neiman’s lived experiences, which challenge societal norms.
When Neiman decided to retire the Ducky alias and embark on a personal journey, it was an act of reclaiming his narrative, both as an artist and an individual. His comeback single, “I.T.C.T.M.,” captures the essence of a redefined identity: It’s bold, unpredictable, and unapologetic.
In an industry that often demands uniformity in some ways, a.k.a. skips stands out, not as an outlier but as a beacon for those who believe in the transformative power of music and art.
