Video: Miguel – ‘The Thrill’

Miguel

Ever wondered what a night with Miguel is like? The heartthrob’s video for “The Thrill” gives a good idea of the hard partying and fun (as well as hangover) you can expect.

The black-and-white clip documents Miguel and his friends celebrating at a birthday party for Miguel’s girlfriend, Nazanin Mandi. There’s dancing, scantily-clad girls, and plenty of drinking and smoking as the night gets increasingly woozy and eventually turns into a blur.

“This video is a wild montage of my favorite moments within a single day of celebration,” Miguel tells Rolling Stone. “Real memories created amongst real friends and real family.”

His critically-acclaimed sophomore album Kaleidoscope Dream is expected to debut in the top 3 next week with over 50,000 copies sold.

Video: Miguel – ‘Do You…’

Miguel and Nazanin Mandi

Fast cars, the desert, and bedroom eyes. Miguel drops a sexy and romantic visual for his ballad “Do You…” from his brand new album Kaleidoscope Dream.

When he’s not seducing a lovely young lady, he’s traipsing through the desert in this music video. Interspersed with a performance scene, the crooner romances his real-life girlfriend Nazanin Mandi inside a vintage car and against a wall, among other places.

The singer spoke at length about his music, sexuality, and creative direction with Power 105’s “The Breakfast Club” today. “I’m just hoping to inspire non-lazy R&B music,” he said.

He explained his strategy behind releasing Kaleidoscope Dream in parts as a way to give fans music they could easily process. “We consume music in smaller doses; just being online, you’re discovering a new artist a song or two at a time. What I wanted to do was basically engage different types of music consumers. I just took the first three songs and put it out and the second three songs and put it out and the last three. And all together, it makes up this album… People don’t have to feel like they’re committing all their time at once.”
