In an ode to his Mexican heritage, Miguel has released a five-track project that is the Spanish/Spanglish version of his 2017 War & Leisure album. Te Lo Dije features collaborations with fellow Spanish-speaking artists Kali Uchis, C. Tangana, Dante Spintetta and Emmanuel Horvilleur, as well as Mexican Mariachi girl band, Flor de Toloache.
Miguel’s Spanish-language project is one that he has been teasing his fans with, hence the name of the EP, Te Lo Dije. The phrase means “I told you so” in Spanish and also happens to be the name of a song on the EP. On this collaborative effort, Miguel is mixing in his R&B vibes with his Latin ties, so for fans looking for a mixture of both, they can listen the Spanish version of his hit, “Sky Walker” featuring Spinetta and Horvilleur. Uchis can also be found on “Carmelo Duro” showing off her Colombian roots.
This is the 33-year-old artist’s first Spanish-language project and he even said that he thinks he likes “these songs better in Spanish.” The R&B artist took to his Instagram account to his express his excitement on Te Lo Dije, as well as give props to people who helped him through the process.
“FIRST RELEASE OF THE YEAR,” he wrote. “TE LO DIJE (a selection of songs off of W&L en español).”
