Rogue Waves EP is fucking unbelievable! Miguel is so underrated. The reason why I love Miguel and his music so much is that he doesn't confine himself to the sound or the music trend other "artists" go to. He doesn't follow the crowd. He just does himself, which is commendable & hard to find nowadays. He's constantly evolving his music and the craft. If you're reading this Miguel I appreciate your music, and keep making fucking dope songs. Can't wait for your album! All love here in Australia

@ericmehlermusic
You are all wrong. It's not country (Kacey's own stuff is barely country to begin with), it's certainly not "pop electro" as there is nothing "electro" about it, it has absolutely ZERO similarity to Sam Hunt or FGL, and it's not a new genre either. It's just indie pop.
It's really good, though.
