Pop music artist Micah McLaurin is usually known for his insane piano skills and high-fashion flair, but his recent single “How Can I” goes way beyond that. It’s a soul-baring moment that’s shaping up to be his first hit of 2026.
If you were obsessed with “Remember Me” last year, you’re going to love “How Can I” even more. The chorus is a total earworm and so easy to pick up. Plus, I bet you’ll be hitting replay on the music video for this gem over and over again.
A Personal Journey from Rejection to Freedom
You might think your family dinners are uncomfortable, but Micah’s story is on another level. He grew up in a strict, religious Southern household where “being yourself” wasn’t exactly on the menu.
Indeed, this tune dives straight into the pain of being rejected by the people who were supposed to have his back, simply because he didn’t conform.
The title says it all: “How Can I?” is the heavy question this Pop music artist is asking himself as he navigates the complex path to forgiveness. It’s a profound exploration of self-worth in the face of parents who repeatedly pushed him away.
While the lyrics are 100% personal and vulnerable, the production by Fernando Garibay (the mastermind behind some of Lady Gaga’s biggest bangers) gives the track an infectious modern sound.
Not to mention, a lot of us can really see ourselves in his lyrics. Sharing that same experience makes “How Can I” feel like an anthem for anyone who’s been there, helping you connect with the same emotions he felt.

Truth, Love, and Pop Music
In conclusion, “How Can I” is about breaking free from the fear of the unknown. In a world that’s constantly trying to put everyone in a box, this great composition is a reminder that every gay man and anyone who has ever felt like an outsider deserves to walk in their own truth and be happy.
It’s emotional, it’s catchy, and it’s a bold, brave step forward!
