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
The extremes of who I'd love to be onstage are David Bowie, Prince, and, I don't know, Bjork.
Miguel
Historically, black music has influenced other cultures and other genres and created other genres.
Miguel
I'm a firm believer that when children have a strong conviction about something, it's often because there's some powerful experience from a past life. Something that they didn't get to fulfill.
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
I think in a world where everyone wants to categorize and compartmentalize and rationalize, it's OK to be different.
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
If you look at any religious description of hell, it is the same as human society, the way we dream. Hell is a place of suffering, a place of fear, a place of war and violence, a place of judgment and no justice, a place of punishment that never ends.
