2668495, I can't figure out Miguel's position
Posted by Coco la chapelle, Tue Feb-28-12 06:05 PM
I'm listening to his new Ep which is really good : Adorn and Gravity sounds dope to me, if you like R&B then check it out.

But anyway, let's get back to point, this EP got me wondering about Miguel status. I know he features on a bunch of hot songs and I also know "Sure Thing" was #1 on urban radios last year but I still don't see that dude as a straight mainstream artist. Something about his music or his character just don't match. I don't know if it's just because he doesn't really fall into that R&B/dance/techno category that is hot right now or if it's because he actually has some kind of old school talent (whatever that means)...

What do you guys think ? Is it just me or does he really have some kind of underground vibe even if he's successful ? Is there any other mainstream singers or musicians that give you that feeling ?
