Miguel is VH1's "Artist You Oughta Know" for August. VH1 oughta know that Miguel's audience is mostly millennial club kids. At least, that's who showed up to see him Saturday night at the State Theatre in Minneapolis.

The show, of course, was originally scheduled for First Avenue, and part of the ceiling at the legendary nightclub collapsed on Wednesday night, necessitating the move to the larger theater. At First Ave, the show was soldout; that wasn't quite the case at the State.

Miguel made no mention of not being able to play at the revered venue for the first time nor did he mention Prince, which seemed surprising since the Purple One was a major influence on Miguel.

Nonetheless, here's what you oughta know about Miguel's 110-minute performance on Saturday.

He loves fringe, like Sly Stone on steroids – his jacket, his microphone stand, his robe. He favors white clothes for himself and his band members. And white instruments.

He's a kinetic, shirtless, abs-displaying showman, though his often exciting moves were limited and repetitious (the fringe did add some flash) until he jumped into the crowd, appearing both on the main floor and in the balcony.

Too many of the songs from Miguel's third and current album, "Wildheart," had similar musical dynamics in concert, which slowed down the first half of the concert.

Although he may have come across as an R&B loverman on his first two albums, Miguel rocks out on "Wildheart" with a message. If it wasn't clear from his lyrics, he delivered a couple of between-song sermons, talking about being yourself and believing in yourself. "Different is OK, man," he declared.

He also talked about his background, having an African- American mother and Mexican father and, when it came to racial identity in school, he felt resigned to check the box that said "other."

The preaching not only humanized the 29-year-old Los Angelino but also broke up the monotony of his dense, medium tempo, synth-rock sound. After a pep talk to the 1,800 or so fans, he climbed atop a pedestal to deliver "Leaves, " with his passionate voice crooning over quiet chording. That seemed to change the dynamics and momentum of the performance.

The rest of the evening was diverse and often compelling musically. The ensuing "What's Normal Anyway" was a thoughtful talk/sing discussion about one's identity. Then Miguel and his five-person band found a slinky groove with "Deal" and a Bruno Mars-ish vibe with "Waves." "Do You Like Drugs" was a shimmering ballad with Princely falsetto, "Face the Sun" a sexy jam with a big-note ending and "Coffee," the current single, a dreamy ballad.

"How Many Drinks," his coarse seduction, turned into an extended free-for-all with Miguel running through the crowd. That left his Grammy-winning hit "Adorn," a breezy soul groove and fitting finale which merely served as a prelude to the final benediction.

"You are the only you there's ever been and will ever be," he reiterated. "Create and curate your own beauty… Stay free and stay wild, Minneapolis."

By the end of the night, you oughta know that about Miguel.
