The video for “How Can I” is out, and Micah McLaurin isn’t holding anything back. The soul-baring single now has a visual to match its emotional weight, a direct expression of what it means to hold onto yourself when the people closest to you refuse to see you clearly. This one hits differently.
Produced by Fernando Garibay (Lady Gaga, Whitney Houston, Kylie Minogue) and co-written with Poo Bear and Simon Wilcox, “How Can I” carries serious pop pedigree without losing its personal core. The track is already on Spotify’s All New Pop playlist and landed on Apple Music’s New Music Daily and New In Pop. McLaurin puts it plainly: “Being human comes in all shapes and shades, we all deserve to be happy and to walk in our own truth.”
The song builds on real momentum. McLaurin was featured in Spotify Wrapped’s Best of Fresh Finds Pop 2025, driven largely by the viral surge of his Latin-infused single “Remember Me,” which earned two official remixes from Majestic and Until Dawn, both hitting Music Week’s Pop Club Chart at number six. Before that, “Satisfied” and “Baboom” both cracked the Top 10 of the same chart.
McLaurin’s reach extends well beyond the studio. He’s collaborated with creative director Nicola Formichetti, designer Zaldy, producer duo PhD, and worked alongside brands including Dolce & Gabbana, Alexander McQueen, and Vivienne Westwood. That kind of cross-industry pull doesn’t happen by accident, it reflects an artist operating at a genuinely distinctive level.
“How Can I” lands as one of McLaurin’s most direct and affecting releases to date, a pop track with real emotional stakes and production that earns every second of its runtime. Watch the video now.
