Stream Miguel's long awaited new album "War & Leisure," featuring Rick Ross, Travis Scott, J. Cole & more.
War & Leisure is the fourth studio album by Miguel and was released on December 1st, 2017. The album was supported by four singles: Sky Walker, Shockandawe, Told You So and Come Through and Chill. In an interview with Billboard before the album,’s release, Miguel said his next album will be his most politically-charged project to date. It would find him addressing a number of social issues, including immigrant rights at the Adelanto Detention Center near Los Angeles. For Miguel, though, this combination is not taboo. On tracks like City of Angels, Miguel treats the seemingly unrelated ideas of politics and sex as equal. These two themes are quite literally the identifiable markers of the album: War & Leisure is a continuosly dichotomous project. The ideological successor to Prince and his mission, Miguel treats freedom of speech and self-expression as necessary components of human rights.
Miguel has announced The War & Leisure Tour, a run of dates in North America promoting his upcoming Trump-inspired album of the same name. The trek kicks off in Oakland and runs for 36 dates until a show on April 12 in Berkley, California. SiR and Nonchalant Savant will open. Check out the full schedule above.
Stream Miguel's long awaited new album "War & Leisure," featuring Rick Ross, Travis Scott, J. War & Leisure has political undertones, because that’s what life feels like right now, Miguel said. This album is intentionally about the ethos right now, that we are right in the middle of all this. We’re trying to flourish in the middle of all this.
Album · 2017 · 12 Songs. War & Leisure as a title is a metaphor for the singer’s affection, Miguel singing, No matter where I go on the map/You got my protection on Banana Clip. His love for fuzzy guitars is clear throughout, and Told You So recalls Prince at his most danceable

When Miguel lamented inequality and its manifestations on the closing track of Kaleidoscope Dream, it seemed forced, heartfelt as it was, like the singer was reaching to display some depth. It didn't help that the penultimate number was "Pussy Is Mine. After the sleazier Wildheart, his second Top Five album, human rights issues naturally fueled Miguel's writing to a greater extent, as heard on War & Leisure.
War & Leisure is an album with a generous helping of highlights, not least because of Miguel’s enviable vocal versatility and affinity for dramatic songcraft, an irresistible combo that sees him playing both hero and villain in his own fantasy. True, ‘War & Leisure’ lacks the obvious identity that has marked out Miguel’s previous three albums, but that’s no fault.
The album was produced by Miguel with Benny Cassette, Cashmere Cat, Benny Blanco, and Salaam Remi, among others. The music departed further from Miguel's R&B roots with rock styles such as psychedelic and new wave, as well as lyrical themes that explore morality, normalcy, and sexuality. It was a widespread critical success and earned Miguel two Grammy Award nominations, including one in the category of Best Urban Contemporary Album. Wildheart is the third studio album by American R&B singer and songwriter Miguel.
