Miguel's been slowly dropping singles for the past few months in anticipation of his upcoming album, War & Leisure. Today, he comes through with the third single thusfar off the project titled, "Pineapple Skies."
Miguel's been diving into a deeper psychedelic stage in his career with all the music he's dropped. He's continued to experiment further and further with each project but this one could be his most experimental thusfar. With "Pineapple Skies," Miguel brings his silky smooth vocal talents over 80's inspired production. It doesn't have the "banger" appeal as the Travis Scott assisted "Sky Walker" but it's another song that fits into what Miguel does best. He initally teased the song with Snoop Dogg on his GGN online series.
With a little over two weeks to go, Miguel's War & Leisure album is set to drop on December 1st. Basing on what he's dropped so far, he may end up contending for a spot on a year-end list.
Quotable Lyrics
Everything gon' be alright
Got you dancin' to the song while you do it like that
Lights so bright,
How you do it like that?
