Speaker 1: A real key for real celebrity, real time joined the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Morning. Everybody is DJ en Vy Angela Ye, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club special guests with
Speaker 1: us this morning's right. My favorite R and B singer
Speaker 1: and my second favorite Lucid. Miguel he can't never just
Speaker 1: say nothing, just all nice? He got sor right now,
Speaker 1: how did you celebrate single to Mayo? Being that you
Speaker 1: are half Mexican? Man, We actually had an album played
Speaker 1: back yesterday, Okay, so I was wondering if you guys
Speaker 1: were wearing a baby and nothing about that. So I
Speaker 1: was like, yo, what's up with real slackt lately? Miguel,
Speaker 1: you guys didn't come because we had the interview today.
Speaker 1: No that I thought maybe you were mad at that's
Speaker 1: because they were playing half um. They said you were
Speaker 1: half Mexican and wanted to play some Mexican artists. Right.
Speaker 1: He played a quarter of Cassie because she's twenty five,
Speaker 1: a quarter of the song and half of how many drinks?
Speaker 1: Because you're that's cool. I'll take that. That's all right,
Speaker 1: shout out out there right now, that's why you win?
Speaker 1: Like the is that Mexican? Is that Mexican garb. Mexican garb?
Speaker 1: Is that Mexican? Is that traditional Mexican garben you're wearing.
Speaker 1: It's not just a jack. It's the finest Mexican callie.
Speaker 1: It's very CALLI call very California times wearing a tradition
Speaker 1: to a black person's v neck. But Migel, welcome. You know,
Speaker 1: we've been waiting for this new album to come out.
Speaker 1: I know you put out the three song EP a
Speaker 1: few months ago, and it's interesting because they said Coffee
Speaker 1: just came out. But I was like, that song's been out,
Speaker 1: I've been hearing it. Put it out. I put that
Speaker 1: out really for the fans ahead of time. And you know,
Speaker 1: everyone who's been been following me like since the last
Speaker 1: album especially knows I like to put music out when
Speaker 1: it's when it's I'm to care for the album. So
Speaker 1: I wanted to do it like that, and I think
Speaker 1: everyone had been waiting so long for some music, so
Speaker 1: I just put it out that way. But Coffee is
Speaker 1: the official single. So you were missing, man. I miss
Speaker 1: I missed being you know, being in the mix and
Speaker 1: and you know, being able to like just be out
Speaker 1: there and do shows and whatnot. Why I STI long
Speaker 1: since collided school dreams? Why why didn't you feel the
Speaker 1: need to to rush? Because you know, if you have
Speaker 1: a successful project label like hey we need another one, Yeah,
Speaker 1: why didn't you need to come right back up? The
Speaker 1: big thing is like, I mean, I hate to say it,
Speaker 1: but art really does imitate life, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And after a while, like you have to do living.
Speaker 1: You know, there's living that needs to be done, so
Speaker 1: you can kind of like just just I guess, feel
Speaker 1: the tank of inspiration of I guess you know, it's
Speaker 1: kind of a cliche thing to say a way of
Speaker 1: saying it, but you know what I mean, it's like
Speaker 1: had some living to do, you know, and we were
Speaker 1: on the road, but like essentially it's it's not I
Speaker 1: mean just just being out and and being home, um,
Speaker 1: spending time with family all those things, like just kind
Speaker 1: of living life, living life. Just like Charlomagne had a
Speaker 1: huge argument about you this morning, okay, before you got here.
Speaker 1: He was actually on your side. He had an argument
Speaker 1: with another guy that was battling between you and Chris
Speaker 1: Brown and who is the better R and B singer
Speaker 1: who had the better songs? Walking around playing your coffee song, grind,
Speaker 1: I was not playing coffee playing tell me to his mind.
Speaker 1: It's a very big difference, even another man with battling
Speaker 1: and another. Sometimes you get into the arguments for people
Speaker 1: about who's the best rapper. I said, mcguel's the best
Speaker 1: R and B singer all right, now, he said Chris Brown.
Speaker 1: I said, it's not even close. Now, if if it's
Speaker 1: popularity of cause Chris talent, not even close. I think
Speaker 1: it's just that I think we're just two different we
Speaker 1: make two different kinds of music. It's hard to compare
Speaker 1: you to Chris Brown. I'm a Chris Brown fan straight up,
Speaker 1: and that's my guy. Like he's he's a good dude,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I listened to Chris Brown, right,
Speaker 1: But you haven't done those crossover like, Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do that. Like Chris Brown's dabbled in ed M records
Speaker 1: and done other things, You've really been strictly like a
Speaker 1: soul R and B artist. Um, Yeah, I mean I
Speaker 1: think my music is always rooted in soul. Um. I
Speaker 1: think I just I'm I'm painting with the different with
Speaker 1: different colors and different like textures. Do you ever feel like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I gotta try something you know different. Have you tried
Speaker 1: a EDIM type of record before? Um, I wouldn't say
Speaker 1: that EDIM, for what it's known for is really my
Speaker 1: really moves me, you know what I'm saying. Um, I
Speaker 1: think I've heard a couple of remixes of my songs
Speaker 1: that are like EDIM remixes, but it's not something that
Speaker 1: I would I don't think if it like was a
Speaker 1: track I heard, I'd be like, oh, it makes me
Speaker 1: want to But there are the rhythms that that live
Speaker 1: in that same temple because I'm not think you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying as well, So they're rhythms that live
Speaker 1: in that same world and tempo space that do move me.
Speaker 1: But it's just I can't say that EDM is really
Speaker 1: my my bad. So it's wild Heart almost done or
Speaker 1: wild Heart is done, it's completely done, Okay, Yeah that
Speaker 1: wild Heart is the title of the new album. So
Speaker 1: finishing movies that're gonna turn into because working on it's
Speaker 1: actually yeah, I mean the crazy thing is I, um,
Speaker 1: two years later, it's crazy. I'm just really finding getting
Speaker 1: more information on it, so I don't really know too
Speaker 1: much about it. But you know, we handle our business. Now,
Speaker 1: why didn't you, you know, just like pull it to
Speaker 1: the side a couple of years ago and say, hey,
Speaker 1: take this twenty thousand dollars. Sorry for the inconvenence to
Speaker 1: me that almost to capitate you. Are you okay? We spoke,
Speaker 1: We had everything seemed like it was on the up
Speaker 1: and up. You know, um last week spoke. But I guess,
Speaker 1: you know, you just got to deal with things as
Speaker 1: they come, right, because there was another woman that was involved,
Speaker 1: but then she decided not to sue. Yeah, right, and
Speaker 1: now this is a second woman, so I guess, yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess, I don't I don't even know at this point.
Speaker 1: I I like, I don't have enough information that like
Speaker 1: talk about it. But I just don't like I had
Speaker 1: my business for you though, because I knew when the
Speaker 1: three song EP came out, and I think I went
Speaker 1: to download to something that didn't download faster, so I
Speaker 1: didn't hear coffee until yesterday. I bought it on our
Speaker 1: But then like you came out, and then the news
Speaker 1: about came out at the same time. Interesting, right, It's
Speaker 1: interesting how that all works out. Anyway, It helps you
Speaker 1: get your names out there. So I don't think he
Speaker 1: would like the news is just rists bad news. It's
Speaker 1: kind of weird. I don't think anyone really cares anymore,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's just like having a
Speaker 1: long time but I still watch it every twing. I
Speaker 1: thought it was it's it's funny. I mean, it's you know,
Speaker 1: I could laugh at myself now. That was one of
Speaker 1: the most mean moments. We always talk up here about
Speaker 1: the memes, and these people are so clever with the
Speaker 1: things that they come up with, the memes they do.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm waiting for new ones. Now I'm waiting for this,
Speaker 1: like this next album cycle while I'm waiting for new movies.
Speaker 1: Brought it back because Flies had to finish a move
Speaker 1: called the Color Money, which was the Slam, and then
Speaker 1: compared it to the Collidi School Dream, which is delayed drop.
Speaker 1: You're gonna say, but do you still do that? Do
Speaker 1: you still dance the same way? Or do you watch
Speaker 1: yourself now? Or do you still jump over crowds? That
Speaker 1: was um man, I'm I really am just like always
Speaker 1: living in them and especially on stage. So um, I
Speaker 1: won't say that. I'm just like say I love rock
Speaker 1: and roll. I grew up listening to rock and roll,
Speaker 1: so stage like crowdsurfing, things like that are part of
Speaker 1: like things I always thought were amazing, you know I
Speaker 1: wanted to do. Now I'll do them very differently and
Speaker 1: more cautiously if ever ever again. But um but that's
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just a part of what I'm into.
Speaker 1: You know, How did a doorn change your life? Man?
Speaker 1: Talk about I think that the moment that the Grammys
Speaker 1: was real crazy. But the funny thing is is creating
Speaker 1: a doorn and then shooting the video and that whole
Speaker 1: time for me is was like a lot of like
Speaker 1: growing up, you know, and just stepping into a new
Speaker 1: set of you know, I'm more I'm more confident and
Speaker 1: more like I guess taking control of my career place
Speaker 1: for me, And it changed the perception of like how
Speaker 1: people look at me as a musician, as an artist.
Speaker 1: I think people didn't really didn't really look at me
Speaker 1: like I was a real artist. You know. I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: his army cat to write a song. I love a
Speaker 1: couple of songs whatever, But that song changed a lot
Speaker 1: for me. So it kind of like separated you from
Speaker 1: the pack. Yeah, big time, big time. Yeah, how do
Speaker 1: you pick and choose which artists you want to collaborate with. Now,
Speaker 1: of course we know that ludicrous single you've been on,
Speaker 1: work with j Cole, you work with Kenjick Lamar. I'm
Speaker 1: sure a lot of people come knocking on your door
Speaker 1: asking you to do songs and be on hooks and
Speaker 1: sing with them. But how do you pick and choose,
Speaker 1: like I'm going to work with this person? I think
Speaker 1: it's it's it's so tough because you know, you can
Speaker 1: like people, but you may not like their but they
Speaker 1: create what I'm saying, and that's that's that's where it
Speaker 1: gets real tough, because like there's people that I genuine
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I too shoot, like your your coos,
Speaker 1: but the music not not the music is whack, but
Speaker 1: it's not. I don't I don't see where that makes
Speaker 1: sense for more else, you know what I mean. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people get offended, like they give you a song like yo,
Speaker 1: I want you, I really want to get you on this,
Speaker 1: and then you have to tell them, ah, yeah that's
Speaker 1: not really. I'm sure because we're artists, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. So we we're all like sensitive to a
Speaker 1: certain degree. But um, I think like being honest is respectable,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So if I'm not really pointed,
Speaker 1: I just gotta be honest. And that's what else can
Speaker 1: I do? You know what else can I do? Let
Speaker 1: him down easier, man, be like nah, not just like like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm on tour. I'll be back in two years. The
Speaker 1: label said, I can't right now. Well, thankfully, thankfully. Sometimes
Speaker 1: it does just work out that way where it doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be. But well, sometimes it's I don't have
Speaker 1: to say it, just like happens that way. But there's
Speaker 1: been times when I have to be like, you know, honestly,
Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't really see how I will
Speaker 1: fit on this, you know what I mean. Sometimes I
Speaker 1: hear you like on hooks and like, man, this would
Speaker 1: have been great if it was a whole Miguel song
Speaker 1: that record is. It's so crazy how that song came
Speaker 1: about because we did it like two years ago. Wow.
Speaker 1: We thought we thought it was gonna come out a
Speaker 1: lot a lot sooner. But you know, he put it on.
Speaker 1: I love that that. The fans love it too. It's crazy. Now.
Speaker 1: When you first came out, you were known as the
Speaker 1: weird though you look weird. You were crazy estylelished still.
Speaker 1: I mean, the thing is like popl just kind of
Speaker 1: finally just been like, but now people like the weird
Speaker 1: old But okay, let's just be honestly. I did a
Speaker 1: lot of things before they were trendy, and I may
Speaker 1: not have done them in a way that looked cool
Speaker 1: to the general public or to the black masses, or
Speaker 1: to whatever you want to call it. But honestly, I
Speaker 1: don't give up. Ye I'm I'm a human being and
Speaker 1: I'm learning, like I'm, I just have the balls to
Speaker 1: do what I want. And maybe I didn't do it
Speaker 1: the way that I was I was seeing it in
Speaker 1: my head. It didn't come across like that. But you
Speaker 1: gotta give it to a person who doesn't give just
Speaker 1: does what they want. And I think sometimes when people
Speaker 1: are familiar with you, like okay, we like him, we
Speaker 1: like his music, so now all right, now we're okay,
Speaker 1: but yeah, and they're like, I don't know who this
Speaker 1: guy is. And but then you put some hit songs
Speaker 1: out and everybody wants to work with you. They're like,
Speaker 1: all right, he could do whatever he wants. Now that's
Speaker 1: you know what. Actually, the conversation we had here last time,
Speaker 1: I think was pivotal too, because it was like, let's
Speaker 1: just address let's address it. And yeah, and I could
Speaker 1: be like, you know, looking at those photos honestly within
Speaker 1: the same thing. That's straight up you know, looking at it.
Speaker 1: But I know where my head was at and what
Speaker 1: I was trying to do, and like the fashion statement
Speaker 1: I was trying to make, but I didn't have the
Speaker 1: I didn't have the knowledge, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It took like education and kind of like spending time
Speaker 1: with people who really know fashion to explain to me, Okay,
Speaker 1: this is how I see what you're trying to do,
Speaker 1: but this is how you actually do it, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. So it was like it was just
Speaker 1: a learning experience. I can't even be mad at myself
Speaker 1: and the banking. Your girlfriend, we know he can't be gay.
Speaker 1: I love beautiful women's talk about pure board coffee. Yesterday, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said, great record, terrible picture that I would think
Speaker 1: about the guy that look, that's not that's not for
Speaker 1: the men, that's not for the man. That's definitely not
Speaker 1: for the man that was looking at that picture today.
Speaker 1: Did I show it to you? Yeah? Because she did.
Speaker 1: She did a similar picture yesterday I want to see
Speaker 1: that picture. Where's that? But why can Miguel do this?
Speaker 1: And it's okay? And then I put up a similar
Speaker 1: picture and it's a problem. Let me see you got
Speaker 1: on your phone though? Now are you still meditating? Um? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: pronounce it. What's it called transcendent transcendent transident meditation? I haven't.
Speaker 1: I haven't got honestly, I haven't. I haven't got to
Speaker 1: transcendental meditation. But um crazy, I was just talking to
Speaker 1: I should he hit me two days Like, Okay, we
Speaker 1: spoke two days ago about it. It's not bragging. Okay,
Speaker 1: I should call you. That's big bro. Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. That's like, that's like big thing I
Speaker 1: didn't forget. I want to see this the meditation for
Speaker 1: the artist or for the man Miguel, that's just for
Speaker 1: I think it's there's no separation at this point, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's like it's for me. It's
Speaker 1: like a calming. I don't know if you guys are
Speaker 1: ever like meditated got to a point where it's like
Speaker 1: you feel I don't. I don't know how to explain it,
Speaker 1: but it's it's like a feeling of stepping away from
Speaker 1: yours self out of body experience kind of. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: say it's for me, it's not that crazy, but it
Speaker 1: is like it's almost, uh, it's I don't know how
Speaker 1: to explain it just feels very like you can a
Speaker 1: calming like stepping back from everything and kind of seeing everything,
Speaker 1: even yourself, like taking yourself out of your body and
Speaker 1: observing kind of. I don't know how to explain it,
Speaker 1: but I don't know if you have you, guys ever
Speaker 1: meditated that I've tried. I can't. It's hard for me
Speaker 1: to turn off many very busy. It's tough. It's tough.
Speaker 1: It's tough. Um, you know what. I would try guide
Speaker 1: meditation if you, if you ever like have the patience
Speaker 1: to try it, because honestly, it's the most I've never
Speaker 1: felt more clearly than after after doing that for even
Speaker 1: just like fifteen minutes and someone just kind of like, okay,
Speaker 1: now breathe like this, dude, that that will help like
Speaker 1: quiet everything. Do you have tanchic sex also and all
Speaker 1: of that. I haven't got there yet. I want to.
Speaker 1: I want to try that, but that's all breathing exercise,
Speaker 1: breathing exercises, I haven't tried it yet. I was just wondering, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I haven't tried, because did he talked about he said
Speaker 1: he has sex for like two days or something crazy.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was Tantrick drug Field. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, we're all wild at heart. I'm just saying, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: why did you make these freaky ass records? Could you
Speaker 1: go from his mind? Uh huh? You can't say that word? Okay,
Speaker 1: that sounds stupid. Why not? I love? I love? That's
Speaker 1: a that's all right, that's a better Okay, say it again.
Speaker 1: Jonathan sounds so clinical, like sounds like we can't say
Speaker 1: you just couci. I hate that sound so good. Sounds
Speaker 1: dirty to me? And yeah, what is coffee? And effing?
Speaker 1: What is that? Why is that? S anonymous? Coffee is
Speaker 1: the original record and was just excuse me, I forgot
Speaker 1: you are just a dirty Yeah yeah man, talk that
Speaker 1: talk and yeah, uh coffee is just we did the
Speaker 1: other version just because it just felt right. It was
Speaker 1: just like, well, this is what he's really saying as
Speaker 1: well to say it like listening to it just seems
Speaker 1: like the obvious thing. So that's like more for remixing,
Speaker 1: just for like the heads on the internet. So coffee's
Speaker 1: not slaying for actual No, I mean the actual song.
Speaker 1: I prefer coffee, Like this title coffee and the logic
Speaker 1: behind getting too coffee in the morning, that was the
Speaker 1: intention of the song. It was like, it's obviously I'm
Speaker 1: talking about in the song, but it's more that it's
Speaker 1: it's lust rooted in honest connection. So that's what made
Speaker 1: this song stand out on the album because there's like,
Speaker 1: there's a there's something real underneath. So you have a
Speaker 1: lot of sex and then you want to go get
Speaker 1: a cup of caffeine. I just like, I don't like
Speaker 1: and then in the morning. Yeah, so you like you
Speaker 1: think the morning is the best time to have sex.
Speaker 1: I think every time is the best time to have sex.
Speaker 1: Because some people prefer morning sex, some people prefer it
Speaker 1: at night. Morning sex is amazing when you get woke
Speaker 1: up with it, okay, y, yeah, you wake up at
Speaker 1: the morning would and then somebody it's what the song
Speaker 1: is about, and they grow up. I love it. I'm
Speaker 1: still waiting. I'm not leaving about saying that. You mentioned
Speaker 1: that Stevie wanted to reach out to you about what's
Speaker 1: going on in Baltimore. Um, when Okay, maybe not, but
Speaker 1: they were they were they were saying that you and
Speaker 1: Stevie wonder might you hinted that you guys might collaborate.
Speaker 1: That was the story on something that has to do
Speaker 1: with um police brutality. I don't know if it was. No,
Speaker 1: we actually did, uh we did um an event for
Speaker 1: the mayor of La couple days last week and uh,
Speaker 1: and we spoke about it briefly, but it wasn't you know,
Speaker 1: just I mean obviously we're no, no, no, I mean
Speaker 1: obviously something needs to be said and done. Um. And
Speaker 1: it's a very urgent thing and that we were just
Speaker 1: speaking on that. Yeah. Um. And I think there's I
Speaker 1: think there are a number of artists out there who
Speaker 1: are are really keen on making a difference and saying something.
Speaker 1: And I think, um, we're we're hoping to make that happen,
Speaker 1: you know, in so many shape or form. Can you
Speaker 1: make a record about the joys of eating? Asks? Because
Speaker 1: eating as getting like real commercial now, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: But just because they're eating the booty like groceries, Kevin,
Speaker 1: I'm about it. I'm about it booty Okay, man, I'm
Speaker 1: about it. Don't like a crap like crap. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't need booty. Just for the record that. Um, I
Speaker 1: don't know if that's gonna make any lyrical any songs.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know, but hey, you never know.
Speaker 1: What about as me get I don't know. What about squirting?
Speaker 1: Would you write a song? Yes? Yes, you guys are
Speaker 1: thinking about eating booty. But squirting is kinky. Squirting is amazing.
Speaker 1: That's like, that's the biggest compliment. Like I'm a girl
Speaker 1: just positioned himself like, I can't look at you. I'm
Speaker 1: still waiting to see that photo. I don't know why
Speaker 1: you Okay, all right, I can't. I didn't think it
Speaker 1: was that looking at you and made it seem like
Speaker 1: it was really bad. Get out of here. It made
Speaker 1: it seem he's very and he's very conservative, and you
Speaker 1: took it down. Why. I don't know. It was a
Speaker 1: good look your hair and everything. Let me see it again.
Speaker 1: I didn't do my hair. It was supposed to be
Speaker 1: no makeup, no hair done. Just let me see it again, coffee.
Speaker 1: I like that and send it to him. Can I
Speaker 1: see it again? Damn gosh, is it true you're doing
Speaker 1: a movie with John legend um Man. That's so crazy.
Speaker 1: How how rumors I had I had a meeting with
Speaker 1: a production company. I literally had one meeting with the
Speaker 1: production company. It is his production company, um about a
Speaker 1: film that was very, very different than the one that
Speaker 1: they were that a press release was released about. So
Speaker 1: the film that I had a meeting about was actually
Speaker 1: really dope. The film that I heard was they're talking
Speaker 1: about I don't know anything about, like a musical romantic Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's not the film that I was pitched at all.
Speaker 1: So um. So if there's a film being made like
Speaker 1: the one that we spoke about, I'm absolutely interested. But
Speaker 1: I've only had a single meeting about it. But they
Speaker 1: say you got the role, not the not the film
Speaker 1: they're talking about. Is it true that you're getting married? No,
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, I know that's it's true that I'm wild
Speaker 1: at hard straight has it haven't been hard to be
Speaker 1: because are you still You're still in a relationship right? Um? Yes,
Speaker 1: it hard to be faithful because you know your success
Speaker 1: is shot up, you know, since the success of Adorn.
Speaker 1: You know, girls look at you as a sex symbol.
Speaker 1: Is a hard idea harder to be faithful. Um, it's
Speaker 1: only as hard as you allow it to be I
Speaker 1: guess you know what I mean. Don't put yourself in
Speaker 1: that situation where something could happen. I mean you should
Speaker 1: have Paul that. I mean, god, damn, that was. It's
Speaker 1: only as hard as you allowed Jesus just when you
Speaker 1: got rid of all those rumors. Because because it's it's
Speaker 1: for women, though, what are we talking about? Yeah, you
Speaker 1: wouldn't not Cobby pays it on some other I haven't
Speaker 1: said anything anyway. Um uh, but is it hard? It's
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the one telling me, why are you blushing? Now?
Speaker 1: That is it difficult? Now? He is it hard? Wow? Difficult? Wow?
Speaker 1: Is it difficult to stay? Like I said, it's just yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's how much you allow it to affect affect you.
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, Chris Rock said. Chris Rock Want said
Speaker 1: the man is only as faithful as his options. He
Speaker 1: did say that that's why it's tough for men in power.
Speaker 1: I mean, anyone empower women in powering you in power
Speaker 1: to to be faithful. But you know why for a woman,
Speaker 1: and especially for for your girlfriend, I'm sure it's quite easy.
Speaker 1: If she wanted to do something, she could, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure the time I'm gone all the time. Right, it
Speaker 1: would be really easy. The guy could slide in and
Speaker 1: be like women and women are so smart, like they're
Speaker 1: not messy, and we do it, and we do it
Speaker 1: just stupid, right. You guys don't pre plan. You don't
Speaker 1: tell your boy. Look, I told her I'm with you,
Speaker 1: so he has no idea what's going on. We plan
Speaker 1: things out, like we have pictures ready in case we're
Speaker 1: gonna pretend that we're on vacation with our friends, but
Speaker 1: we're really not those pictures and then we tell our
Speaker 1: friends don't post for two weeks because I said them
Speaker 1: with you, and you know, and what else. Just a
Speaker 1: lot of things that women do, we plan ahead. You
Speaker 1: guys just do what you're gonna do and don't have
Speaker 1: any time of plan. Have you gotten quite cheating? You
Speaker 1: know what? I we've been we've been yep. I mean
Speaker 1: we've been together since I was nineteen. I've definitely made
Speaker 1: some mistakes. I'm not even gonna hide behind that, right
Speaker 1: because sometimes when you get caught, that's when you realize
Speaker 1: I got to stop. Oh yeah, big time. That's exactly
Speaker 1: when you when you when you figure that out, and
Speaker 1: then you realize like it's not even worth it, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? When it's not even worth it?
Speaker 1: Do you pay attention to stuff like who's following her
Speaker 1: on Twitter? Instagram? Like make sure Drake's not following her?
Speaker 1: Or trade songs? Man? None of these, none of them
Speaker 1: are a threat to me. M And I don't mean
Speaker 1: that in a in a this way. I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: I just feel very strong about my relationship. So what
Speaker 1: about musically? Do you feel like you're the best R
Speaker 1: and B sing out right now? Um? I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm poised to do something great. I don't know about
Speaker 1: the best R and B singer, but I know that
Speaker 1: I'm poised to do something great in this world. I'm
Speaker 1: just talking about right now at this moment. At this moment,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm in love with my album. I'm in love
Speaker 1: with this album, and I know we have even more
Speaker 1: like great music coming after coffee. So I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: gonna let the fans. It's for the fans, you know,
Speaker 1: it's for the fans, And so that's that's all I can.
Speaker 1: You know, who do you listen to as far as
Speaker 1: other producers or executives when it comes to your music?
Speaker 1: Whose input do you really take to heart. Uh lately
Speaker 1: I haven't listened to anything. No, I mean, like who's input?
Speaker 1: Like when people tell you who do you go to? Like, Okay,
Speaker 1: what do you think about this song? Should this make
Speaker 1: the album? Does this sound all right? Mark Pitts is
Speaker 1: like my big bro. So he's not an artist, you know,
Speaker 1: in the general and an exact term, but he is
Speaker 1: an artist at heart. He's a he's a creative person.
Speaker 1: He's a creative spirit and he understands art. I mean,
Speaker 1: so that's the first person I always go to um
Speaker 1: with my music. But while he's a good person, cole
Speaker 1: Is is a great person. Those those two people are
Speaker 1: probably like the closest that But isn't it hard to
Speaker 1: let them hear a record because they'd be like, oh,
Speaker 1: let me jump on that, and you can't tell for
Speaker 1: you you know what I love? But I could have
Speaker 1: did without him on coffee to be well, it's a
Speaker 1: it's a I love the version with him on it,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, But I also love the
Speaker 1: version without, So it's just options. Yea, that's my guy.
Speaker 1: Because actually when you re released it, because I told
Speaker 1: him I was hearing that song from months already. I
Speaker 1: was like, how is this a new song? But then
Speaker 1: I realized it's because it is right and that like
Speaker 1: we we honestly did that, like and big shout out
Speaker 1: to Wile because he did it like so fast embodied it. Um,
Speaker 1: but it was really for the fans. It's like it's
Speaker 1: for the fans, you know, even though like Coffee, the
Speaker 1: actual version that goes on the album, um will be
Speaker 1: the version without wallet. I don't blame you for that.
Speaker 1: It was a dope first. I just don't think it
Speaker 1: fifth song, he got a line of that dope we
Speaker 1: say fifty shades of gray over Joe to see. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but I just felt like I like, I like RMB,
Speaker 1: I don't be liking to wrap and all like leave
Speaker 1: just let it be RMB, like when everybody wrapped over
Speaker 1: the door, Like no, did people rap over the door? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I didn't hear it. Kalphools on the door, Yeah version
Speaker 1: region version didn't even did he do a version of that?
Speaker 1: What else can we look forward to on the album?
Speaker 1: I'll give us some more since we didn't get to
Speaker 1: come to the playback, Um, what do you have to
Speaker 1: look forward to? Was yeah, like, yeah, tell us a
Speaker 1: little bit about it. We did. We did. Unfortunately, the
Speaker 1: music that we did doesn't fit the sound of this
Speaker 1: the body of work out for this album, so we're
Speaker 1: trying to figure out the right way to put that
Speaker 1: that music out. Yeah, but the premier is like, that's
Speaker 1: a musical mentor someone I grew up listening, you know.
Speaker 1: So that was an honor. You know who I did
Speaker 1: get to work with this album I've never worked with before,
Speaker 1: and it was it was amazing. It was Raffael c
Speaker 1: d Oh I love Rafael twenty was one of my
Speaker 1: They had one of my favorite R and B songs ever,
Speaker 1: Just Me and You, Just Me and you. He's got
Speaker 1: a dope artist to what's home name? Yes, yes, yes
Speaker 1: he does man Um, So shout out to Rafael Um
Speaker 1: represent the Bay And what are you doing a lot
Speaker 1: of writing while you were taking a break? Did I
Speaker 1: do a lot of writing at home? I did? I
Speaker 1: recorded artists too, not so much, not so much. This
Speaker 1: album was like, I think it's the last time I'm
Speaker 1: going to record an album at home. Yeah, this is this.
Speaker 1: It was. It was a challenge because it's just so
Speaker 1: easy to be like and I just like, you know,
Speaker 1: when you settle into your house. It takes so long
Speaker 1: to get your house to exactly how you want it,
Speaker 1: because it's like you're curating everything, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So and I'm really particular. So I'm at home and
Speaker 1: make like the house is coming together. I'm getting real
Speaker 1: comfortable and also understanding that I need some time to live.
Speaker 1: So it makes it real easy to just be like,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna watch a film right now. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna push this. I'm not gonna rush it because
Speaker 1: you can't rush art. You just can't. You don't do that.
Speaker 1: So you just bought into the house. I just made
Speaker 1: sure the house like came together that the way I want.
Speaker 1: Big is it? It's actually not questions of your cribed
Speaker 1: how big is it? The house is? Um, it's I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's like, it's not it's not a huge house.
Speaker 1: It's actually there's only two of us there, so I
Speaker 1: don't need I didn't need crazy house. It's like three
Speaker 1: some three thousands something square. It's pretty nice. Yeah, is
Speaker 1: it is that? I don't know what that is in
Speaker 1: relation to everyone's home. I don't know. But we're in
Speaker 1: New York and I tell you right now, my house
Speaker 1: is not that big. Well, we live in like a
Speaker 1: residential area where it's like you know, single single family homes.
Speaker 1: They're like all nice size, they're not like mansions or
Speaker 1: anything like that. Do you think about standing a family
Speaker 1: soon and having children? Man, I'm too wild for a
Speaker 1: family right now. You said way too wild to have
Speaker 1: a family, right What do you mean? Way too wild?
Speaker 1: Just right? I don't have um yeah, right about now,
Speaker 1: like we're we're at the cusp of like doing something
Speaker 1: really really great. I believe that in my heart, and
Speaker 1: I don't know that that would be like I want
Speaker 1: to be there for like the first at least three
Speaker 1: years for my my like my children's lives. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, three years I want to be home.
Speaker 1: That ain't gonna happen now, So exactly right now, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: right now, I'm too selfish right now. We're both too
Speaker 1: selfish right now. So you're one of those career first guy,
Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely, you know right now? Yeah, right now you're
Speaker 1: having sex with no condom. You know, I possibly have
Speaker 1: a family straight up. Well, I'm sure we're taking the
Speaker 1: proper we're taking something. It was fun. The mac Gallo
Speaker 1: was amazing, actually, this is my favorite Mecco really why
Speaker 1: Probably because I was more comfortable. The energy is like
Speaker 1: it takes getting used to you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I've definitely felt more like I belonged to time. Um.
Speaker 1: And the fact that there's like more familiar faces, like
Speaker 1: you're kind of you know, it's just being around these
Speaker 1: and you only see a lot of these people, you know,
Speaker 1: one or two times a year. So the fact that
Speaker 1: now it's like there's a little more familiarity because it
Speaker 1: respectable from your period. Yeah, I mean, the great thing
Speaker 1: is seeing the musicians, the musicians that you love. So
Speaker 1: it's like, um that know you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: And they and they showed they showed up, like who
Speaker 1: were you like blown away by? Like Wow, I can't
Speaker 1: believe this person's here you never met before, or that
Speaker 1: you barely ever get to see who impresses you. I'm
Speaker 1: always like just because I grew up on jay like
Speaker 1: jay Z, like seeing jay Z every time I see him,
Speaker 1: and he's just so cool, you know what i mean.
Speaker 1: Whole phraised this all sir, Yeah exactly, So like that's
Speaker 1: always like special, you know what I mean, that's cool. Um,
Speaker 1: him and Beyonce looked great. They were super dope. Um
Speaker 1: title no, no, no, no, I think I tried to
Speaker 1: title yet not yet I got you subscribe, I did,
Speaker 1: but I haven't done it yet. I subscribed just because
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like Jay's my father in a way.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. It's hard for me to pay
Speaker 1: money to subscribe it. I don't even have Netflix. I
Speaker 1: use my friends Netflix account really and I have other
Speaker 1: you know, I heard I have that, but it's hard
Speaker 1: for me to like pay, So I'm waiting for them
Speaker 1: to get a free service. Not because I thought it
Speaker 1: was gonna call because they said he was calling people's
Speaker 1: calling people. You never call me. You didn't get that.
Speaker 1: We didn't get voice the text message. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I'm so cheap about it. What happens I don't know, Um,
Speaker 1: because we hear so many stories like they'd be sacrificing
Speaker 1: goats and stuff. That's exactly what happens. Now we see
Speaker 1: the red carpet. What happens on the inside, it's essentially like, um,
Speaker 1: it's just a dinner. It's a dinner, and it's like
Speaker 1: it's just talking to people who mostly don't know who
Speaker 1: you are, but understand that, like, if you're here, you
Speaker 1: must do something. So it's just it really is exactly,
Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, you must do something, so what. But
Speaker 1: it's it's actually pretty cool because it's a lot of
Speaker 1: creative minds, UM, a lot of people who are involved
Speaker 1: in in the creative process of bringing a lot of
Speaker 1: great things to the world. So um, mostly fashioned obviously,
Speaker 1: and uh, I don't know that's the best part. And
Speaker 1: it's just like drinking. It's like drinking talking for what though?
Speaker 1: Are they raising money for? Yeah, for the met I
Speaker 1: don't even know what the met is. For the Metropolitan Museum.
Speaker 1: All the money that from the money goes to the
Speaker 1: to the museum. Now you're really into fashion, of course
Speaker 1: we've talked about that. Is that something you want to
Speaker 1: pursue as far as by the way, I think I'm
Speaker 1: still hungover from the METS two days two days ago.
Speaker 1: That's why none of my words and single it kind
Speaker 1: of all is one blur. Are you thinking about doing
Speaker 1: like anything in fashion, starting a clothing line collaboration? UM?
Speaker 1: I think all of that is is on the horizon. Um,
Speaker 1: because like you said, I'm obviously like into fashion. UM.
Speaker 1: Finding the right way of doing that. I think I'm
Speaker 1: starting in small places with with things that tie into
Speaker 1: the album. So that'll be really dope for like the
Speaker 1: fans to to to um, you know, to be into.
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, hopefully we can involve from that and
Speaker 1: take it to to you know, are you going on
Speaker 1: to her? Absolutely? June July July. Rather who are you
Speaker 1: going out with? I'm going out on my own, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: So um, we're trying to figure I'm trying to find
Speaker 1: the right the right person to come with me, the
Speaker 1: right artists are right, will like to see Yeah, I wonder,
Speaker 1: I wonder who my fans would like to see this.
Speaker 1: That's a good question. Who would you guys like to
Speaker 1: see Miguel on tour with? Yeah, it is a good question.
Speaker 1: Would it be another R and right? It? Would it be?
Speaker 1: Definitely this album. I mean, if you listen to even
Speaker 1: Coalido Scope Dream isn't a traditional R and B album.
Speaker 1: I don't make tradition, traditional R and B music twist
Speaker 1: to it. It's rooted in soul. I'm so like, I'll
Speaker 1: never that's who I am, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: That's how I was raised. But I was also raised
Speaker 1: I'm in love with rock and roll, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So that will always be a part of
Speaker 1: both of those things will always be a part of
Speaker 1: the music, and I think this album kind of pushes
Speaker 1: it in that direction. We need music that we can
Speaker 1: to I mean for a k too. Oh trust me,
Speaker 1: trust me, And that won't ever change because I was
Speaker 1: in the ninth l R and B the only new dude.
Speaker 1: The last CD I would put in to have sex
Speaker 1: with was Trade Songs Mixtape and think it was Anticipation
Speaker 1: and then Colleido Scope of Dream any other time, I'm
Speaker 1: listening to Joe to See Old and You're the old
Speaker 1: knew got that they give props to, like all the
Speaker 1: old older artists that come up here. They always say Miguel.
Speaker 1: But that's crazy, that's that's so that it trips me out,
Speaker 1: and it's it's the biggest compliment, like the boys to men,
Speaker 1: Like like you said, Joe, to see Ria carry there
Speaker 1: we go. You're gonna go see her in Vegas. Um,
Speaker 1: she's doing her residency there, so that should be pretty interesting.
Speaker 1: That would be dope. I'm excited for. I think that's
Speaker 1: that'd be a good date night for you. Vegas I'm
Speaker 1: not really big on shows in Vegas really, Na, No,
