Menudo
A native of Chicago, Cancel joined Menudo in 1981, replacing Óscar Meléndez. His persona in the group was as the good guy. He became an instant hit among Menudo fans because of his charisma and vocal ability.
Cancel was a member during the worldwide Menudo craze of the early 1980s. In the 1981 album Quiero Ser, Miguel sang a duet with Xavier Serbia in Menudo's "Rock en la TV". He also sang "Es Por Amor" and the heart-touching "Cuando Pasará", a song which talked both about parents who abandon their children and parents who die too young to see them grow.
Miguel left Menudo in 1983 before his mandatory retirement age of 16 because of his sudden voice change. He was replaced by Roy Rosselló.
