I have been doing my best in mental self care and emotional. Id like to discuss a little about Trauma Triggers Triumph. Also On this episode I pay homage to the "Control" album upon its 35th anniversary. I feel old. LOL I also dive into a little bit of my own self care and progress as earlier mentioned. One of the major things that has happened was my appearance on Garabatos Podcast. On this episode  you will hear 2 Great clips from their show and you can watch it in full on their YouTube Channel. Poetry is always a release  for me and I am happy with the piece I wrote for todays episode. I needed to stay busy today and this is what I came up with.  I hope that it resonates with you in some way shape or form or just makes you laugh a little today. I know the "Garabatos Podcast" segment is in Spanish mostly but I implore you just sit tight and listen.  As always please review the show and leave a rating.  Twitter @LosLounge Instagram @LosLounge_podcast --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/los-reyes101/message

I've only been waiting since 2002. In 2001 I fell in love with the music and the woman behind the music (how Vh1 right). Shareese Ballard respectfully known as RES, released her first debut album in 2001 but it was the third single "They Say Vision" that captivated me and helped that album take off. The entire album is CLASSIC. It screams VIBES It demands Attention, It liberates the listener and give you an eclectic  Body of Work that will command "RES"pect. in 2002 and it became a number hit song on the Billboard Dance charts with it's Incredible remix that I remember requesting at the Gay clubs. My dear friend Gary said GET HER ALBUM NOW and so I did. What I didn't expect was an album to connect and liberate me as many have had in my life. When you're 19 the view of life is different. Your different. "How I Do" was released with much critical success. In 2009 She released "Black Girls Rock and an EP in 2013 called "Refried Mac" a tribute to Fleetwood Mac" as well as 2014 single release for "Hollow". In 2014 I found Res on Instagram. I instantly  jumped with joy and hit follow. I even DM'd her many times to offer my gratitude and she kindly accepted and even forged a genuine artist to fan relationship. I saw Res and Myra Flynn in May 2014 at RockWood Hall and was blown away that night. She even dedicated my favorite song of hers to me "Tsunami". I cried like a bitch. It was worth it.  20 Years later upon hearing "How I Do" I have had the honor of reconnecting with Res since 2014 and her being as gracious to want to come to the Lounge and do an exclusive interview. Res then to Res now and everything in between. This is the Season 1 finale that if you would of told my 19 year old self was going to happen later in life. I probably would of said to you. WHY WAIT I WANT IT NOW DADDY. DADDY I WANT THE GOLDEN EGG NOW. Thank you Ms. Ballard aka RES for your contribution to MUSIC! More over than you for your contribution in my life. I'm with you until my last breath lady. I am proud of you and may the world either RE-discover or Discover your talent and music. Res has an online performance coming up Feb 19th 2021@5pm and Feb 20th, 2021 tickets are available now at vip.the1res.com Also please follow Res and I on social Res is on instagram and twitter @the1Res and I am on Instagram @karlos_in2020 where you can also watch the INTERVIEW on my IG. it's 3 parts but it's there.

Why did my cousin marry her? Also didn't I say online season 1 was a wrap. Yet 4 eps later what the confusion is going with my mind????? Hi my supportive Lounger's how are you all?  I hit record and I called up special Elder States Madame to the Lounge... my cousin Jazmine! Nobody likes her in real life I can assure. I kid I am family I kid. Actually nobody likes me in real life, LMAO In any case you like me and that's why you love the lounge. It's our little fun and honest space that gets real candid and sometimes a little Brutally real. However on today's episode as Jaz preps for her night out with her good friend she chimes in via facetimes to grace the lounge with someone else voice other mine. I don't blame her one bit. Listen great conversation and funny dialogue will always be the plan the we talk on air and off. So we invite you to come into the lounge today with your open mind and laugh a little and maybe even say THESE TWO ARE A MESS. FROM USA to JAPAN to INDIA to CANADA we all have one thing in common, there's that crazy cool  cousin that always makes it extra fun and gives her opinion as good as the rest of us and so kick back hit play and laugh, understand, vibe out with us, have a drink and please stay safe in this pandemic.

*OK SO BONUS SEASON 1 Episode* I guess.... BUT in light of todays events at Capitol Hill I had to hit record.  It is disgusting to see such acts of disrespect and terror and racism blatantly attempting to make a point in the worst way ever.  It is a national embarrassment and in my opinion and we must be better and work harder to eradicate RACISM AND HATE. I also wanted to give  an update on my own journey with self care and how I have been handling the first several days but I also offer my love and STAY STRONG wish to all the FRONT LINE  WORKERS, GROCERS, HOSPITALS and those who have COVID -19. I had a lot to say and there had to hit record.  I am strong, we are strong, together we are stronger! #ENDRACISM #USA #BIDENHARRIS #ONELOVE  Twitter @LosLounge       Instagram @Loslounge_podcast   review and review the show please and stay safe everyone.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/los-reyes101/message

1st Episode of the new Year. The second title to this episode is called "Macro" Remember micro vs. macro. As we know micro refers to small things and macro refers to big things.  I have to keep looking at the bigger picture.  I have been a truthful and an open human with you all.  It's Personal and as Wendy Williams says "you're either going to think I am crazy or the bravest person". I am living this and I promised myself this Lounge and space would allow me to live in my truth and own and share what I know with the world and it  to manifest it opening doors in Media and Radio.  I wanted to Share me.  With that said. This Portrait you are about to look at; it's Frame is broken.  Twitter @LosLounge Instagram @LosLounge_Podcast --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/los-reyes101/message

Janet Damita Jo Jackson Born on May 16, 1966 In Gary Indiana is the youngest of the Jackson Dynasty.  She has outdone herself in cementing her musical legacy and please DONT REFER TO HER AS JUST MICHAELS LITTLE SISTER. This woman became a powerhouse Billboard number 1 Queen for decades and can still out dance her younger predecessors.  Janet has 10 number 1 songs on the hot 100 and many more. I fell in love in 1989 during the RN1814 ERA and became connected ever since. This Queen of Pop and entertainment is a ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAMER.  THIS IS MY LOVE LETTER TO JANET JACKSON.  *I do not own the rights to the music. Janet Does and respected labels.

EP 33  inspired and dedicated to EriKa Rose. THE SELF CARE HONEST CHECK IN EPISODE V is for vulnerability. I feel as this might be the most personal and honest thus far. I always talk about mental health awareness and self care. I am feeling confident enough to continue that talk but this time around I reflect on "WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW WITH MYSELF". All that glitters does not glow. My prayer is that someone connects with this.  My idea is to be frank as possible about my own mental health and emotional state. May this be the synthesis to the understanding and growth and the one episode people really fully listen through and connect.
