Michael Love Michael is an emerging, New York-based singer/songwriter and pop artist, who crafts earnest and heartfelt material that’s inspired by and draws from a number of different genres — often simultaneously.

The New York-based artist is putting the finishing touches on their forthcoming sophomore album. The album’s second album “Richard” is a heady and slickly produced synthesis of trap, synth pop and neo-soul centered around atmospheric synths, skittering beats and Michael Love Michael’s plaintive falsetto. Underneath the sleek, hyper modern production is an achingly wistful and nostalgic song, detailing the memories of a loved one, who has passed away way too soon.

Directed by André Atangana, the recently released video for “Richard” follows the New York-based artist through beautiful Paris as they vamp, wander around and just be fierce as fuck. As Michael Love Micheal explains, the video was shot during a trip to Paris during their birthday in July.
