While some faction of the world keeps obsessing over the old school type of music and the other faction holds onto the futuristic sound for their dear lives, there in the middle is where you find one phenomenally gifted superstar Mighel Akando who is acting like a bridge between these two musical generations- somehow succeeding to bring them closer together in the middle of a musical understanding. His style of music is diverse and incredibly hard to pin down, although it operates somewhere between the true depths of hip hop, R&B, and soul with occasional surprises here and there, all in service of his musical ingenuity!

Considering himself spiritual as opposed to religious, Mighel Akando has always developed a style of music that is enjoyed on a higher conscious level. Staying true to his art, he has been turning heads with his brand of high-octane hip-hop and R&B cocktail. Equally as visceral as it is cathartic, Mighel’s sound collides bold, raw lyricism with relentless instrumentation, mirroring the spirit and attitude of both hip-hop and R&B.

“Summer Solstice” is the groundbreaking new release from Mighel and feels like the next-level project for him. A 9-track masterpiece that is brimming with all sorts of sounds and covering a variety of real-life inspired themes, this album is a massive highlight to his versatility and incredible artistic range as one of the most promising talents in the game right now!

It’s been long since I listened to a full-length album, in its entirety without skipping a single track as I did with this epic piece, and that right there has to tell you the level of indisputable artistry Mighel has inherited and run away with!

“Higherrr” is a fierce anthem with cross-genre appeal thanks to its coherent blend of hip-hop and R&B and while many artists can take credit for their way around these two genres, Mighel is able to rubber-stamp his own authority, dedication, and unbridled authenticity to make the track sound like nothing you’ve heard before.

His melodic vocals are undeniably a strong highlight of his musicianship and add to the delectable flavor of his deliverability—smooth and silky with just the right amount of character and attitude. This song is an ode to tremendous strength, resilience, fortitude, and that self-power to relentlessly grow despite the setbacks, hate, and all kinds of adversity that may come your way.

If you’re the sort who enjoys Juice Wrld’s unapologetically heartbroken anthems that tremble with trauma, then “Unwanted Attraction” has to be your new favorite anthem. This is a melodic rap song that features emotionally vulnerable lyrics imbued with teenage angst as Mighel’s melodic vocal style veers on melancholic and he feels that he may never love again—a groundbreaking musical approach that provides a sense of familiarity that heartbroken adolescents of the current generation can gravitate toward!

“Patterns” is delivered in the same breath and really showcases Mighel as an unapologetic rapper who is really helping define a new sound!

“Quick Maneuvers” features that big-content energy is wavy, and features some ground-shaking bass to get you busting some new moves in no time!

“Options” is a club R&B-inspired masterpiece with a trippy laid-back groove and vibe that feels so racy in an inexplicable type of way. “Warpaint” is what you call a proper trap anthem with signature hi-hats, rickety synths, low-end 808s, bouncing drums, and pounding basslines!

Over all, “Summer Solstice” is a record worthy of critical praise and one that is going to elevate Mighel Akando to international acclaim!

Currently streaming on your favorite platforms, it is such an honor to present to you “Summer Solstice” in its entirety. Relish every second of it!
