More quotes by Miguel
I feel that as artists - whatever your medium is - I feel that we're watching what goes on around us and we take what we don't see, or we don't hear, or we don't feel and we do something that speaks of it more about it, for it, or against it - whatever our perspective is - that's what our job is.

I mean, there's plenty of artists who are making R&B music, but because of their ethnicity, it's considered something else.
Miguel
When I'm a part of someone else's creative process, it's all about facilitating their ideas and hopefully bringing their perspective and making it a part of a song.
Miguel
When I was coming up, I just wanted to play baseball and I'm doing what I love to do most. How can I feel pressure doing what I love to do?
Miguel
All the best times in music were rebellious. I mean, even like Elvis, people didn't want their daughters paying attention to him. He was considered too sexual!

I want to be transparent, so I don't leave room for too much thinking.
Miguel
I don't think I live the lifestyle that's expected of a quote unquote R&B artist. I'm just not that dude.
Miguel
You can't take yourself too seriously. But always have conviction.
Miguel
I embrace that I'm different. That I'm unique.
Miguel
I know I'm a very dynamic performer. Once you come to the show, you're gonna want to have the album. I think it's more about showing people that it's OK to share similarities, but it's more important to embrace your individuality.
Miguel
I'm not here to write a song for you, I'm here to help you write a song for yourself.
Miguel
What makes your life different from the next n***a? There is something special about you, so let me help you bring out your individuality.
Miguel
That is why every brother and sister will react differently according to how they learn to defend themselves and adapt to different circumstances. When our parents are constantly fighting, when there is disharmony, disrespect, and lies, we learn the emotional way of being like them.
Miguel
The extremes of who I'd love to be onstage are David Bowie, Prince, and, I don't know, Bjork.
Miguel
I believe dreams represent the purest form of fantasy we unleash through our subconscious. They represent the truest freedom we can experience. Totally unrepressed and totally creative.
Miguel
The whole cultural diversity and musical diversity, I think they almost go hand in hand, you know? It's like a mind space or a it's having an open mind to what else is out there.
Miguel
A lot of people forget that R&B put hip-hop on, R&B put rock on.
