“I had a year to live with MIGUEL “I realized I had more to do with this sound before I could move forward,” Mike explained in a statement. “For me, this is a testimony.

He continued: “After the festive atmosphere that followed MIGUEL I was reminded that trials never cease, but God is always with me and this is a testimony of my tumultuous times, my trials, and my continued triumph despite doubt, open hatred, and fear. I am here to speak to my fellow sinners and saints.
