All I Want Is You is the debut studio album by American R&B singer and songwriter Miguel. It was released on November 30, 2010, by Jive Records and ByStorm Entertainment.

After signing to ByStorm in 2007, Miguel recorded the album with producers Dre & Vidal, Fisticuffs, Happy Perez, State of Emergency, and Salaam Remi. It was shelved by Jive for two years after legal issues with the singer's former production company. Selling poorly upon its release, it became sleeper hit on the Billboard 200 with the help of singles such as the title track and "Sure Thing". By September 2012, it had sold 404,000 copies.

All I Want Is You received positive reviews; critics found some of the music inconsistent but praised Miguel's singing and songwriting abilities while drawing comparisons to Prince. Miguel toured in promotion of the album as a supporting act for fellow R&B singers Usher and Trey Songz.

Background

In 2007, Miguel was signed to Jive Records-imprint label ByStorm Entertainment,[1] before recording All I Want Is You.[1] Recording sessions for the album took place at Black Mango Studios in Van Nuys, California, Germano Studios in New York City, Glenwood Studios and Instrument Zoo in Miami, Florida, Studio 609 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and The Gym in Los Angeles, California.[2]

Music and lyrics

According to Jason Newman from MTV Buzzworthy, All I Want Is You is "a diverse album rooted in R&B and hip-hop, thoughtfully laced with elements of classic rock, funk and electro".[3] Marc Hogan from Spin said it featured neo soul music,[4] while AllMusic critic David Jeffries described it as a "slick" and "sexy" synthesis of influences from Prince, Kanye West, and electro.[5] "Girls Like You" and "Hard Way" feature aggressive hip hop beats, while "Pay Me" and "To the Moon" explore European electronic music and EDM, respectively.[7] The album's first half features two romantic songs, an interlude, a song about a prostitute, and another about a quickie. The closing track "My Piece" uses a "piece"-"peace" homonym.[8] Jeffries said the album featured Miguel's "sly sense of humor".[5] On "Sure Thing", Miguel sang about loyalty in a passionate committed relationship.[7]

Release and promotion

{{quote box|quote="Though its poor initial showing on the charts seemed to affirm [Jive]'s lack of faith in it, the record gradually discovered an audience over the next year thanks to a trickle of ingratiating singles that established Miguel as one of radio’s rarest commodities: a new R&B star. With its splatters of off-kilter funk and mesmeric electro, All I Want Is You teased a unique vision without coloring too far outside the boundaries of popular R&B."|source=—Evan Rytlewski, The A.V. Club[6]|width=20%|align=right|style=padding:8px;|border=2px}}

After the album's completion, legal issues with his former production company prevented it from being released for two years,[1] during which Miguel continued working with various underground acts and writing songs for mainstream recording artists, including Johnson&Jonson, Asher Roth, Jaheim, and Usher.[7]

All I Want Is You was released by Bystorm Entertainment and Jive,[8] on November 30, 2010.[9] It sold poorly at first;[6] in its first week, the album charted at number 109 on the Billboard 200 and sold 11,000 copies in the United States.[10] After falling off the chart for three weeks, it re-entered and climbed the chart for 22 weeks, before peaking at number 37 on May 14, 2011.[11] The album became a sleeper hit,[12] and by September 2012, it had sold 404,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[1] The album has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[13]

According to Miguel, Jive marketed him as a "typical R&B artist" during their promotion of All I Want Is You: "That album was a huge learning experience. I left the marketing of my album and me as an artist up to the discretion of the label ... I can't really blame them for [that], because that's what they know. But that's not what my lifestyle was."[1] Four singles were released from the album: the title track "All I Want Is You",[14] "Sure Thing",[8] "Quickie", and "Girls Like You".[15] As the title track gradually received radio airplay, Miguel began touring as a supporting act for Usher and Trey Songz.[1] By May 2011, "All I Want Is You" and "Sure Thing" had reached a combined digital/mobile sales of over 825,000 units.[8]

Critical reception

Reviewing the album for About.com, Mark Edward Nero gave All I Want Is You three-and-a-half out of five stars and said Miguel "somehow managed to vocally glide across each" of the different styles he explored in music that was nonetheless rooted in R&B. He deemed the record imperfect but devoid of a poor song.[16] B. Wright from Vibe found the music inconsistent and "schizophrenic" but praised Miguel's singing and songwriting abilities while determining the record was "worth the purchase price".[17] In a three-and-a-half star review, Slant Magazine{{'}}s Matthew Cole said the second half of songs was "less stimulating" on an album that "blends slick, radio-friendly R&B with Prince-aping theatrics, both refracted around a sense of humor that, surreal and sexually unsubtle, would have to make [Prince] proud". Cole also compared Miguel to singer Kelis, "whose work has an undeniably commercial cunning to it, but who never fails to imbue her pop confections with real personality".[18]

Writing in MSN Music a few years later, Christgau gave the album a B-plus and believed Miguel "front-loaded his Prince-channeling debut" with "five hooky tracks" that were "followed by six pleasant tracks and capped by two hooky novelties". He viewed the song "Teach Me" as "a treasure hidden in the middle" and "supplicant's" song, "unprecedented" in "a genre that makes its nut promising untold pleasures". He credited Miguel for "laying out the truth that, as Norman Mailer put it in one of the few useful sex tips in his orgasm-mad canon, 'the man as lover is dependent upon the bounty of the woman.' Who knows what pleases her? She does, she alone, and Miguel craves to be let in on that shifting and enthralling secret." He nonetheless critiqued that the song lacked a first-rate hook that would have made it an R&B classic in the vein of Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" and "Use Me" by Bill Withers.[19]
