I think the goal is in general to broaden my fans' perspectives and their horizons. Not to be cliché. But to introduce them to things that they may not have introduced to themselves.
Miguel

Miguel
It doesn’t matter how much you love someone, you are never going to be what that person wants you to be.
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
Just as eunuchs will never know aesthetics as applied to the selection of beautiful women, so neither will pure rationalists ever know ethics, nor will they ever succeed in defining happiness, for happiness is a thing that is lived and felt, not a thing that is reasoned or defined.
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.
Miguel
I mean, there's plenty of artists who are making R&B music, but because of their ethnicity, it's considered something else.
Miguel
