Miguel releases statement after saying he makes “better music” than Frank Ocean

Earlier this week, Miguel reignited a competitive feud with Frank Ocean by telling The Sunday Times, “I genuinely believe that I make better music.”

“I wouldn’t say we were friends,” he told the paper, and after the comments were picked up, Miguel decided to put out a statement for clarification.

The statement gives a cheeky plug to his new album ‘Wildheart’, while saying: “There’s no need to compare apples to oranges.”

“Yes, I am competitive, we ALL have to have a level of competitiveness to put ourselves on the line day in and day out,” he says.

See the full statement below.
