I am not championing picking girls or men in the club but the policy that when you want something, whatever it may be-go for it! How Many Drinks? Remix featuring Kendrick Lamar is a fantastic marriage and its video –clean, classy and classic! (Check that alliteration am ill 🙂 Unlike the old trick of buying a woman gallons of vodka, he sings The message in this song is deep. Here, Miguel wears the shoes of a man in the club and in need of a lay. I just like its feel-good vibe and story line. This song slowly overtook my love for Adorn as my best Miguel song off the new album. Anyway, Adorn has probably one of the sickest kicks I ever heard and it’s just cute for anyone to say, “Let my love adorn you.” Other Must-Listens in this album include Do You (whose video’s love interest is Miguel’s actual girlfriend Nadia –sweet), The Thrill and Where’s The Fun In Forever? (Miguel originally wrote this song for Alicia Keys and took it back when it didn’t fit into her Girl On Fire album) that features Alicia Keys only shouting “Music Break” at the rear end-bizarre doesn’t start to explain this collaboration that never really was. The first Adorn off the EP was only two minutes long and ends even without a bridge. I like that here Adorn was given the entirety it deserves. The vocal arrangements in its title track Kaleidoscope Dream give the listener a whimsical and smooth welcoming into the album’s experience. It’s a dream come true to find an album like Kaleidoscope Dream that needs no skip-a-track dial. The album’s first single Adorn went on win him many fans and the 2013 Grammy Award for R&B Song. The six-tracked two-part record birthed songs like Adorn and Gravity that would later feature in his sophomore album Kaleidoscope Dream, released later in the year ( September). In early 2012, Miguel released Art Dealer Chic Vol 1 & 2 EPs. I appreciate the poetry in this masterpiece.
Sure Thing is my all-time favorite Miguel song, also from this album. Here, his electric guitarist delivers a stellar recording. In the latter, Miguel sings about single-hood There’s always that guy/girl you can’t have but will always remind you that you’re lonely. My stand out tracks in this album was My Piece and Girls Like You. Cole shone, the latter’s hip hop/R&B combi pushing both artists to topping radio charts. Only Quickie, Sure Thing and the album’s title track All I Want Is You featuring J. Jodeci or Shai would in this decade easily produce a song like Miguel’s Teach Me-it’s lazy sexy and slurry beat echoes Jodeci’s baby-making hit Freek’N You. I thought it was an ode to lost R&B and probably the first sign of Miguel coming to the rescue of the genre that in a few years would be overtaken by pop. His debut album All I Want Is You, released in 2010 was pretty solid but still wasn’t impressive enough for a lot music critics. His aesthetic speaks louder than his sound-a fuse of the 90s music feel and an inexplicable futuristic vibe that probably made Vibe Magazine recently brand him and Kendrick Lamar as “The New Classics.” From his sturdy creative direction, velvety voice, naughty yet catchy lyrics like [I don’t wanna be loved, I just want a quickie) to simply how he adorns and moves in the classic black trench coat in How Many Drinks? music video it’s literally hard to point at what’s not to love about this man. Miguel is not a regular Grammy-Award winning singer.
