With Calvin Williams

Lush Vibes Radio is a weekly two-hour music show that explores the airy, atmospheric, ambient side of all the genres you love, and all the genres you didn’t know you loved! On any given week, we dive into R&B, Soul, Pop, Electronica, Jazz, Hip Hop, as well as New Wave, Shoegaze, classic soul throwbacks, and genres you wouldn’t expect like Classical, Orchestral, Folk, and Country! From shimmering guitars, dreamy pianos, droning synthesizers, deep, wide bass, layered vocal harmonies, dynamic orchestral instrumentation, to generous usage of reverb, Lush Vibes Radio highlights music that is often chill, but never boring, and always lush.

I’m heeeeeere!

Good evening!!!

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

Good eeeeeevening Nika!!!

How are you doing?

I’m great!! Got my nap in!! ♥️

How are you?

I'm doing okay, less nerves tonight, so I'm glad about that!

Good evening y'all! Had to use the restroom, but I've been listening the whole time.

No nerves! Manifestation!

Greetings Mr. Throwback

And greetings and salutations to you, Miss Nika 😁

This instrumental though 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!

I agree. Nice instrumental.

I’m gonna cohabitate with Bruno Mars’ backup singer!!

You keep messing around on Donnell and LaRoyce LOL!

Yes, they’re not going anywhere

We’re in a renaissance!

When you got it like that, you got it like that, eh 😎?!?! #BeenPimpinSinceBeenPimpin

Can I cut Ramsey’s hair? I woke up from my nap thinking about being an ass.

JUST CALL ME A MACK!

You know whaaaaaaaaaat?!?! 🤣🤣🤣

🤣

He’s looking very much like a lion with a matted mane lately. Or always.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Y'all killin me here!

What's good AJ!

I would tell you to play nice, buuuuuuuuuuut...you won't 🤦🏾‍♂️🤣

Whaddup Calvin!!!

Speaking of nice... know what would be nice?

That "SHOW ME THE WAY" joint gave me Phillip Bailey meets hard knock vibes 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Cal, I love this song and Masego is an ODU alum! 🖤

Okay, so it wasn't just me! That track dripped with EWF infuence!

And Alex Isley is 😍. All those Isleys are ♥️

This remix is killer! Also, I have one more Alex Isley joint coming down the pipe tonight. A short one, but I think you'll be into it!

I was thinking this was an old song, but I realized it was a remix with Lucky Daye

I knew that was Lucky Daye on that song. I know his voice anywhere at this point. I can't pinpoint who his voice reminds me of, but it's still distinctive.

Matter fact, he kinda reminds me of Case without as much bass to his tone and smoother.

Ok back to this haircut...

Nah lol

But...

Fine. Just know it would bless my soul to give this fool a good shave and a haircut.

I imagine he's put a fair bit of time into those locs

Wayment...I KNOW she did NOT name her song “Energy” 🙄

Yeah, you don't wanna start cutting those locs and a body leaps out LMAO

Time...not effort, Cal. No telling what’s living in that abomination.

I bet there are illegal immigrants in there 🤔

I chose my words carefully in that last sentence

Lol I saw somebody else's song recently named "Energy" and thought the same thing--as if there probably aren't a million songs named "Energy" LOL

Translation: I SAID WHAT I SAID!!! 🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh suh-nap. After 7

I had a feeling that was Kevon Edmonds at the very least, but I didn't realize that was the whole group. I'm still a bit heartbroken Melvin passed away. Major blow to the group's overall sound, but that's still a nice song nonetheless.

Oh they pronounce that like “Chiiiiiild” like then

*them southern women at church talking about the hoe with the short dress on

"Chiiild, you see that Kenya girl walking in with here with that dress? If the wind blows wrong, then you know Deacon Johnson finna soak his handkerchief with all that drool!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

SMH 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Chiiiiild, then got the nerve to sit on the front pew so passa can be looking all up in her business 🤣

I’m hungry but it’s too late

LMAO @ passa!!!

Wait, I think my subliminal thoughts about cutting Ramsey’s hair is why I’m not on BARS anymore 😩 but I can’t fight the thoughts!

Oh snap, some good ole Brent Faiyaz from the DMV

You CAN...but you don't WANT TO b/c the Assquarius in you won't let you be great LMAO

Nika projecting her frustrations on Ramsey's hair nest

Lol right 🤣

Oooh, heads up for the both of you, I may be getting interviewed by Ransom Relic on Friday!

Assquarius says I should just cut the dudes hair if I’m not on the show.

Omg that’s awesome Cal! That’s our brother!!!!

He hit me up earlier and asked if I was interested! We're going to speak tomorrow and hammer out all the details

You’re in great hands!

I talk to him every day! Lol.

I'm looking forward to it! This is going to be one of my first interviews, if not the first!

Oh word?!?! That's DOPE and should be an interesting convo!

So proud of you

Same here Bro!

JoJo guess what happens next Tuesday!!

Is it "The Quiet Storm" again already?!?!?! Say it IS so!!!

I think so!!!!! 😍

OHHHHHHH SUH-NAYUPPPPPP!!!!

🤫⛈

This song JAMS!!!

Hate to break it to you, you're going to have to wait a bit longer. Quiet Storm is on the 13th

😒Calvin Williams

It'll be worth the wait

It’s ok. Gives me more time to think about cutting Ramsey’s hair!!

I was about to say, that felt a little too quick lol

It's all good...it's gonna be a great show nonetheless!

And Nika...stop being mean all your life LOL!

Haha where did Re’Gideon come from?

🤣

“Gonna put de peanut butter pon de sandwich!”

Ok... I might be mean!

Nika, you are on a roll tonight

Like, you cut up every week, but you've cranked it up to 11 tonight! 🤣

🤣 😩

No bull, yo 🤦🏾‍♂️🤣

I’ll do better next week. 🤔

Nah, I need more of this

But for now...”I tink bout puttin de weed whacker pon Ramsey’s hair!”

No you won't...don't EEEEEEEM lie to us like that LMAO

Ok. No sweet little lies!

Brandy has KILLING IT with these duos she's been doing lately 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

*has been

Gallant is hitting these notes like he and Sam Smith have been hanging out!

What's funny is he reminds me of Usher in this song

He did sound like Usher

Please don’t kick me out of this chat 😩

Nah, I need this spice in my life, I can't kick you out!

This song is so sweet.

Such a beautiful song. I love Emily King

This is a VERY endearing song right chea

Definitely
