Rising R&B star Miguel has been one of 2011’s most celebrated newcomers. With hits riding both Pop and R&B Billboard charts for weeks, he is hoping his sophomore release will keep up the momentum.
Our friends at VIBE and Rap-UpTV caught up with the ‘Quickie’ crooner and learned of more details about his sophomore album, his writing for R&B icon Usher’s next release, and his upcoming tour with British R&B belter Marsha Ambrosius.
Find out what the ‘Sure Thing’ singer had to say after the jump:

Miguel = GAY.
THE GREAT LACEFRONCE is mad at Miguel for being gay because THE GREAT LACEFRONCE was going to give him the red light special.

@niknak It dosent fucking matter if the album only did 11k. The shit is perfection. It’s REAL R&B. Sales are not everything.

………
girl shut the fuck up. He sold 11k because he’s UNDERRATED. Also, he’s a new and upcoming artist. what the fuck you expect for someone underpromoted and new to the scene? I swear you are dumb as shit, not everything is gonna sell like hot cakes, alot of people like miguel, his album recieved positive reviews from critics. Like take a fucking seat. You dont know what the fuck youre talking about.

That album is amazing from start to finish. Seriously you can listen to it and not skip a track! Agreed, you looks much better with facial hair. Sexy actually.

I’m going to that tour. OMG Miguel AND Marsha Ambrosius? Damn that’s good music overload! I’ve seen him perform before and he’s a great performer. He has a Prince meets Elvis vibe. Marsha is just amazing her falsetto just leaves you speechless. If they add Jill Scott and Chrisette Michele, I’d be in music heaven!
