Reflecting on 2024: A Year of Growth, Action, and Gratitude

As the year comes to a close, I can’t help but look back on 2024 with immense pride, resilience, and gratitude. This year, I learned that it’s one thing to talk about chasing dreams, but it’s another to truly take action—and I did just that. From releasing new music to navigating some tough personal challenges, 2024 was a year of proving to myself that I can rise above anything, no matter how hard the road gets.

The Challenges

This year wasn’t just about the highlights; it was also about enduring the storms. Early in the year, I was assaulted—a moment that shook me to my core and tested my strength in ways I never expected. Shortly after, my car was stolen, another blow that left me feeling vulnerable and frustrated. On top of these challenges, I underwent multiple surgeries, pushing my body and mind to their limits as I worked to heal and recover.

And perhaps the hardest moment of all was losing my grandmother. She was one of my biggest supporters, and her love and pride in me always gave me strength. Navigating her loss has been a painful reminder of how fleeting life is, but it’s also inspired me to honor her legacy by continuing to push forward and make her proud.

The Professional Milestones

Despite everything, #SpotifyWrapped was a wonderful reminder of the strides I’ve made this year. It feels so fitting that “Warrior” was my most-streamed song of 2024. That track wasn’t just an anthem for me—it became a source of strength for so many others facing their own battles. Seeing it connect with listeners in 53 countries was surreal and humbling.

I’ve never released this many tracks in a single year before, and it’s been a whirlwind of hard work, creative energy, and, honestly, a lot of sacrifice. It wasn’t always easy or cheap, but every project was worth it because I’m finally seeing my dreams come to life. To everyone who streamed, shared, and supported my music this year—thank you. You made these moments possible.

As we move into 2025, I’m setting big goals: more music, more connection, and even more spins. I’ve got some exciting projects lined up, and more new songs that I can’t wait to share with you all.

The Personal Journey

On a personal level, this year has been just as transformative. Pursuing my dreams has required sacrifices—time, money, and even relationships. Instead of going out or spending money on leisure, I’ve poured everything into my work, and while it’s left me feeling lonely at times, I wouldn’t trade it. This journey has taught me the value of perseverance and the importance of surrounding myself with people who truly support my vision.

To those of you who actively showed up—whether by sharing my music, offering words of encouragement, or simply believing in me—thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your love and support have meant the world to me, and you’re the reason I keep going.

At the same time, I’ve had to come to terms with the fact that not everyone will rally behind my dreams, even those closest to me. It’s a hard truth, but one I’ve accepted. Going into 2025, I’m letting go of the energy and attachments that held me back, focusing instead on the people and opportunities that uplift me.

Looking Ahead

2024 was a year of challenges, resilience, and action, and I’m carrying that momentum into 2025. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved, and I’m ready to push even further. Here’s to a new year of growth, creativity, and connection.

If you haven’t already, check out my latest release, “New Year New Me,” and let’s keep building together as we move into the new year.

Thank you for being part of my journey. Here’s to 2025 and all the possibilities it holds! 💙

Steven Binko Launches $1 Million GoFundMe for Groundbreaking NYC Social Experiment.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York, United States [11/17/2024] — In 2008, Binko revolutionized reality television with The Escape, the world’s first fully interactive reality series, where viewers controlled everything from casting to challenges. Now, more than a decade later, he will subject himself to a similar concept—but on a much larger scale. Today, Binko unveiled a new endeavor tentatively titled BoxedIn NYC: Life Through the Looking Glass, a daring yearlong experiment blending personal transparency, public interactivity, and social commentary.

Imagine living in a glass house in Times Square for a full year, with every aspect of life on display and decisions—big and small—dictated by the public. This isn’t just voyeurism; it’s a thought-provoking exploration of modern society's obsession with visibility and influence.  

“Back in 2008, we broke barriers by putting the power in viewers’ hands,” says Binko, reflecting on The Escape. “Now, I’m putting myself in the box—literally—to explore how public opinion shapes our identity and what happens when personal privacy no longer exists.”

About the Project

Concept: A fully transparent, glass-walled residence in Times Square where Steven Binko will live for one year, subject to decisions made by viewers via interactive polls. 

Purpose: To spark conversation about the role of privacy in the digital age, how public influence shapes identity, and the effects of extreme transparency. 

Interactive Features: Viewers will decide what Binko eats, wears, how he socialises, and even the challenges he undertakes on a day-to-day basis.

Social Impact: The project will delve into critical discussions about social media, mental health, and the evolving nature of authenticity. 

In many ways, the social experiment also serves as an art installation, aiming to shine a light on the effect of social media nowadays. “This project is more than a spectacle,” says Binko. “It’s a platform for discussion and a mirror to our own lives in a world where being seen feels more important than being real.” 

Creator's Tweets Add to the Buzz

Shortly after revealing the project, Binko took to X (formerly Twitter) to drum up excitement, tagging influential figures. He tweeted:

• “@MrBeast I would love nothing more than to collaborate with you on this. You could host the challenges and be a co-creator for the interactive elements!”

• “@elonmusk Would love your thoughts on integrating X for the public polling and staying in touch with viewers! Also, should you want to help make this happen, my inbox is open!”

• “@calebwsimpson When this is up and running, I fully expect you’ll come tour my New York Apartment!!”

  
  

These tweets highlight the ambitious scope of the project and the potential for collaboration with powerhouse influencers. Currently, the project is estimated to cost over $10 Million.

From the groundbreaking innovation of The Escape to the raw honesty of his web series Binko: Unscripted, which launched with behind-the-scenes footage of his divorce, Steven Binko has consistently pushed boundaries and shared deeply personal moments to challenge societal norms. In a particularly vulnerable act, he publicly released bodycam footage from a suicide attempt years earlier, leveraging his platform to spark critical conversations around mental health, resilience, and recovery. 

This year, following the success of his single Warrior, Binko is preparing to release his next highly anticipated track, New Year New Me, on December 1st. With bold ambitions, a commitment to meaningful dialogue, and undeniable momentum, Binko continues to solidify his role as a fearless storyteller and innovator who refuses to slow down.
