  • Freestyle: The Colleagues, After 7, Mac Ayres
    Oct 26 2025

    This week on KBLA’s Lyric Lounge, we let the music do the talking.

    Tosha opens the vibe with The Colleagues featuring October London “Patience.”
    It’s that slow-burn R&B that reminds you love can’t be rushed. A groove that moves like candlelight, steady, warm, and worth the wait.

    Teal slides in next with After 7 “Honey (Oh How I Need You).”
    Pure 90s elegance. Smooth harmonies, velvet vocals, and devotion you can feel in every note. This one’s for the grown folks who still believe in melody and meaning.

    Ural closes the session with Mac Ayres “Lonely.”
    A reflection wrapped in rhythm. Ural explores how solitude can sound sweet when sung with honesty, a song for anyone learning to sit with themselves and still find peace.

    This episode of KBLA’s Lyric Lounge is a soulful tribute to the great D’Angelo.

    Tosha opens the groove with “Me & Those Dreamin’ Eyes of Mine,” a poetic reflection that captures D’Angelo’s early genius, where love feels like daydreams dipped in honey.

    Teal slides into “Spanish Joint,” a joyful fusion of jazz and soul, a song that moves like sunlight over rhythm, where musicianship and spirit become one dance.

    Ural closes the session with “One Mo’ Gin,” the bittersweet ache of wanting one more chance, smooth, confessional, and endlessly human.

    From Brown Sugar to Voodoo, D’Angelo gave us soundtracks for the soul, honest, raw, and timeless.

  • Freestyle: Bad Bunny, Isley Brothers & Party of Two
    Oct 16 2025

    This week on KBLA’s Lyric Lounge, Teal & Ural bring a masterclass in rhythm, range, and realness.

    Teal takes it back to 1972 with The Isley Brothers – “Work to Do.”
    A groove that’s part funk, part sermon — a song about responsibility, love, and that everyday hustle that never quits.

    Ural keeps it global with Bad Bunny’s “Monaco” — a track that moves like a luxury confession, where fame, rhythm, and reflection ride in the same lane.
    Then he slides into Party of Two’s “Friendly Fire,”

    From blue-collar soul to reggaeton luxury, this week’s Lyric Lounge proves great music always meets you where you are.
