In my recent blog posts featuring the tracks “Moons,” “Don’t Give Up On Love,” and “Let’s Go to France.” I’ve had the pleasure of embarking on a captivating journey with the emerging pop sensation Micah McLaurin. As I delved deeper into his latest project. It became evident that Micah has fearlessly transitioned from a classically trained pianist to a pop artist on his own terms. His openness in embracing his true identity is truly commendable. Moreover, each single release marks a significant milestone in his artistic evolution.
The evolution of Micah’s artistry has been a gradual process, with each new single release marking a daring step forward in his musical journey. In his latest song “Call Me,” Micah presents himself at his most authentic, both visually and lyrically. In like manner, this notable shift in his artistry and personal growth also demands a departure in sound for the acclaimed pianist and emerging pop artist.
What’s more, in his boldest move yet, he unveils an irresistibly steamy club anthem titled “Call Me.” Similarly, this is acompanied by a visually striking and uninhibited music video. The track is skillfully produced by Fernando Garibay, known for his work with Lady Gaga, and co-written with the talented Simon Wilcox, recognized for collaborations with Carly Rae Jepsen. This collaboration especially allows Micah’s distinctive sass and energy to shine in ways that are truly unprecedented. “There’s no shame in the name. Call me slut. Call me whore. I’m all about the fame. I would like you better if you call me, call me slut. I would like you better if you would call me, call me whore“. he demands.
Notably, Micah’s music videos are a unique art form, openly flamboyant and exuding an electric sense. Each video is a captivating watch. The powerful “Call Me” clip, directed by An Le (Cher, Mariah Carey) and styled by Eyob Yohannes (Madonna, Julia Fox), shows Micah breaking away from the tranquil setting of his piano, unleashing inhibitions in a sensual dance routine with a group of topless dancers. Likewise, the video cleverly alludes to the Garden of Eden and teases temptation with the appearance of a snake.
Without doubt Micah’s music exudes a striking uniqueness and a wealth of musical knowledge. As a somewhat fresh voice in the LGBTQ community. The most compelling evidence from this debut pop project suggests that Micah is on the verge of becoming one of music’s queer pop sensations this year.
