Miguel: How Many

Written in just a few hours in response to a harrowing week of violence against black people in the USA, Miguel released the beautifully minimal “How Many.” The chilling synth-soul track gets straight to the point: the first line is “I’m tired of seeing human lives turned into hashtags and prayer hands / I’m tired of watching these murderers get off.” Sadly, this message is still a timely one, and Miguel’s call to action is clear—we all need to do and say something. The LA-based singer/songwriter says he will post an updated version of the song each week until it’s complete.
