Miguel Brings That Quality Sound On ‘War & Leisure’ Album [STREAM]

Undoubtedly Miguel is one of the best artist this decade has seen. His soothing vocals coupled with unique style is a knock-out formula that has been proven through his first three albums. Two-years departed from his last one ‘Wildheart’, Miguel looks to replicate his success with the release of ‘War & Leisure’.

His 12-track album is led by the Travis Scott-assisted “Sky Walker,” which has been a success. Miguel also reconnects with J. Cole on “Come Through and Chill,” while collaborating with Kali Uchis on “Caramelo Duro,” and Quiñ on “Wolf.”

In a recent interview with PAPER Magazine, the LA native explains that this album captures his current state of mind, saying, “If I didn’t include some of the things that are happening in the ethos and the things that I’m seeing and paying attention to and that I care about, if I didn’t include those topics in my music, I think it wouldn’t be a real, honest representation.”

Aside from promoting the album, Miggy has had a busy week as he performed on “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show,” covered PAPER’s 2017 Winter issue, and performed “Sky Walker” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Kimmel” last night.

Next up for Miguel he will hit the road for “The War & Leisure Tour” with new TDE signee SiR and Nonchalant Savant. The tour begins February 22nd and runs through April 12th.

Miguel Performs At “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show” [WATCH]

Last night Victoria Secret rounded up their best models for the 2017 “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.” LA’s very own, Miguel provided the soundtrack along with other musicians, but really shined on the stage, performing “Pineapple Skies.”

As models continued to show off their strut on the catwalk, Miguel continued to display his musical talents with a rendition of “Told You So.” Models like Adrianna Lima, Bella Hadid, Jasmine Tookes, and Elsa Hosk all flaunted their sexy looks to the sounds of Miguel.

Both “Pineapple Skies” and “Told You So” will appear on Miguel’s forthcoming ‘War & Leisure’ album, set to be released this Friday, December 1st.

Two-years-ago Miguel released his GRAMMY-nominated, psychedelic ‘Wildheart’ album that included the singles “Coffee” and “Waves.” The R&B sensation will be following that with his upcoming ‘War & Leisure’ album that he announced will be released December 1st.

‘War & Leisure’ will reportedly include 12-tracks, including the Travis Scott-assisted “Sky Walker” and “Shockandawe.” Along with those two singles, Miguel shared a new track called “Told You So,” which is the third single off the album.

The bouncy, guitar-heavy “Told You So” single comes with crazy vocals from Miguel, who exudes confidence on the track. Listen below.

Miguel has also uncovered the artwork for ‘War & Leisure’, where he is shown wearing a groovy outfit with a military hat, as he is levitated from what appears to be sand. The sand clearly represents the war in the Middle East and correlates with recent single’s artwork that have all included some kind of war depiction.
