 Miguel 'Migs' Baeza
“To me, AJM represents a family of talented musicians and music lovers who want to share their vision with the public; a family that does not want to focus on the monetary gain, but rather on the music; a family that acknowledges the importance of different kinds of music; a family that inspires.”
The sixteen year old producer and record label executive, Miguel “Migs” Baeza has a relatively unusual story. Migs has already worked on tracks featuring such artists as chart-topping Grammy award winner R&B singer, Ashanti and hip-hop sensation, Flo-Rida. The track, “Let’s Do Something Crazy,” which was made by Migs at age fifteen, will be the first single from The Vault. AJM Records’ upcoming release, The Vault, features twelve tracks of un-released Ashanti material. Migs was handpicked to produce, “Let’s Do Something Crazy.”
In addition to composing, Migs plays the guitar, piano, keyboards, and the drums. Migs’ tracks transcend genres. “My travels abroad have given me the virtue of being open minded and to have the utmost respect for all that other cultures bring to the world. I think this comes out in my music.”
Apart from music, Migs is a scholar, varsity athlete, a member of his high school student council and on track to become an Eagle Scout this year.
