Me 2Too: The Las Vegas Song Asking a Generation to Change

Picture the moment right before someone tells the truth about themselves out loud. That half-second of hesitation. That’s the moment a new Las Vegas movement is betting everything on.

It’s called Me 2Too — always written with the numeral, never spelled out as “Me Too.” It started as a song. It’s turning into something bigger: a public, camera-facing ritual of admitting who you used to be, and naming who you’re becoming instead.

A Song Built on Two Small Words

The movement grew out of an original track called “Me 2 Too,” written and released by Las Vegas artist Michael Franklin. The song doesn’t open with a lecture. It opens with a confession.

“I used to be just like you / Everything you do, I used to do too.”

From there, the lyrics keep naming things most people would rather not say out loud.

“Held a grudge? Me too. Judged somebody’s life? Me too. Chased the riches? Me too. But I’m made new — that’s no longer me, I’m me too.”

That’s the whole idea in one line. Not “I judge you for what you did.” Instead: “I did that too, and I changed.” The song calls it out plainly:

“Hurt people hurt people… I used to be you, but Christ made me new.”

The Message: Shame Doesn’t Change People. Recognition Does.

Franklin built the song around a simple belief — nobody changes because they’re shamed into it. People change when someone they respect says, “I’ve been there too, and here’s what happened next.”

That’s why the song ends with an invitation, not a warning.

“Listen man — you can do it too.”

It’s a call-and-response. Someone admits a struggle. Someone else says, “me too.” Then a third person watching realizes they’re not alone in it either. That back-and-forth is now the actual mechanic behind the movement.

How the “Me 2Too Testimony” Works

The challenge built around the song asks people to film a short video in four steps.

1. Name the old pattern

Say the thing you used to do — the grudge, the habit, the way you used to treat people. Then say: “Me too. But that’s no longer me.”

2. Name the change

Say what you did about it, or what you’re working on right now. No polish required. This is the part that actually helps someone else.

3. Tag two people

End the video with: “Me too. Now you two.” That line passes the challenge forward, the same way the original #MeToo hashtag spread — through direct, personal tags rather than a broadcast post.

4. Duet or stitch the song

Pair the confession with the official “Me 2 Too” audio, using the hashtags #Me2Too, #Me2TooChallenge, and #MadeNew.

It’s simple by design. A confession, a change, a tag, a beat to carry it. Anyone with a phone can do it in under a minute.

Not to Be Confused With #MeToo

The name is close enough to the #MeToo movement that it’s worth saying plainly: this is a different thing, with a different focus. #MeToo, which began in 2017, gave survivors of sexual harassment and assault a way to say “this happened to me too” and be believed.

Me 2Too is aimed the other direction. It asks people to look at their own past behavior — not what was done to them, but what they did — and say it changed. The organizers chose the numeral “2” specifically to keep the two movements visually and conceptually separate.

The Night Las Vegas Looks in the Mirror

The movement culminates in a live event: “Me 2Too! Live — The Night Las Vegas Looks in the Mirror,” a 2.5-hour concert and community commitment night set for Saturday, September 26, 2026, in Las Vegas.

The venue has not been announced yet. Entry is free, with a suggested donation at the door. The event is organized by MCNM LLC, led by owner and CEO Michael O. Franklin Jr.

Expect the concert to function as a live version of the online challenge — people telling the truth about who they were, on a stage, in front of a room that answers back with the same two words the song is built on.

Why a Song Might Do What a Campaign Can’t

Public awareness campaigns usually lead with a statistic or a warning. Me 2Too leads with a verse. That’s a deliberate bet: that a hook people can hum will travel further than a slogan they’re told to remember, and that a short video of someone admitting a real flaw will land harder than a poster telling them to be better.

The comparison organizers are reaching for is Michael Jackson’s “Man in the Mirror” — a song that turned a private decision to change into something an entire generation sang along to. Whether “Me 2 Too” reaches that scale is unproven. What’s clear is the mechanic behind it — public confession, immediate reassurance, a name for someone else to carry it forward — is built to spread on the exact platforms where short video already lives.
