Grammy Award winning artist Miguel covers the latest issue of Wonderland magazine. As he continues to promote his critically acclaimed third studio album ‘Wildheart’, the star discusses his artistic growth, sex symbol status and his musical objectives.
Oh his artistic growth…
“Both my music and my performance have evolved. I think there is a kookiness to who I am that I don’t care to filter out anymore. When you’re live there’s no, ‘wait’, ‘delete’ or being too cool. I always want to push myself to the end of my breath. Can I still sing in key, all the times jumping up and down”?
On his sex symbol status…
“You know, it’s a compliment, it’s cool. I’ll take it, but, I’m two sides of a coin. I’m really goofy. I mean I’m so goofy. I can be slick, but really, really goofy”.
On his musical objectives…
“I’ve got something to offer those kids. I want to promote dreaming and doing something against the tide…When you realise that ‘normal’ is subjective, you just think, ‘I’m going to do what the fuck I believe in and what the fuck I want’…I want to touch people that love music like I do and I want to touch people who are into music more conventionally. I want to be part of popular culture and I want to reach people who are intellectual”.
