Miguel is at the top of the game right now. Riding the wave off his first Grammy win for ‘Best R&B Song’ (“Adorn”) and killing stages on tour with Alicia Keys. The R&B maverick is working on keeping the momentum going into the summer, as he has revealed plans to release a new set of EP’s in similar style as 2012’s ‘Art Dealer Chic.’
The three-song projects are expected to carry the same title, but give fans more. “This time it’ll be bigger and better,” Miguel told VIBE of his upcoming Art Dealer Chic minis. “I intend on having limited-edition apparel with them, so it’ll be really dope.”
While he couldn’t say whether the Art Dealer Chic EPs will lead up to a new album, Miguel has already announced his collaboration with Kendrick Lamar for the remix of Kaleidoscope Dream’s “How Many Drinks?” A fan of K Dot’s upon first hearing Section.80, Miguel says their collabo will “sound like a breath of fresh air.”
“Kendrick is poised to be the next staple in hip-hop [and] I certainly intend on becoming that for R&B,” Miguel says. “I just feel like he’s just being honest in his music. Newer, younger artists, that’s what we’re all striving to do. Just be ourselves. Kendrick is one of the best examples of that.”
