As the 50th anniversary of Hip-Hop quickly approaches, some of the biggest artists in music gathered for iHeartRadio Living Black! on Wednesday, August 2nd. The special event honored Black culture and continued to celebrate Hip-Hop milestone with a takeover of Market Street in Inglewood, California — a hub for Black art, music, and culture in Los Angeles.
As the second live performance of the night, Miguel commanded the stage with his cool demeanor and sultry vocals. For his 2023 iHeartRadio Living Black set, Miguel and his band gave the crowd a performance of one of his newest singles "Give It To Me." While there's no official word on whether he'll be releasing a new album anytime soon, the song marks Miguel's first release since 2021.
The singer then transitioned into one of his most well-known hits "Sure Thing." The single served as Miguel's first hit from his debut album All I Want Is You which dropped in 2010.
iHeartRadio Living Black! 2023 is inspired by the culture, history, and innovation of Black culture and hip-hop. In addition to the music, the hour-long special was an interactive block party that brought Black culture to life while celebrating the 50th anniversary of hip hop.
Aside from Miguel's amazing performance, the 2023 iHeartRadio Living Black! also featured performances by Usher, GloRilla, Coco Jones and NLE Choppa. The event will also include special appearances by LL COOL J, Ty Dolla $ign, Roddy Ricch, Warren G, Chlöe, Lola Brooke, D Smoke, Kash Doll, SleazyWorld Go, DDG, Flau'jae and more.
