Episode 200 - Ver5e

Send us Fan MailFor Episode 200, I had the chance to sit down with San Jose's own Ver5e, one of the smoothest voices coming out of the West Coast R&B scene and an artist proudly representing the legendary Classified Records. Over the years, Ver5e has built a catalog that blends silky vocals, island influences, acoustic soul, and modern R&B. From the laid-back vibes of Island Vibes (2019), to the more personal UNIVER5E (2022), and his latest release Ver5atile (2025), he's continued to evolve without losing the signature sound that fans have come to love. His infectious single "I Got You" and his acoustic releases showcase the versatility, songwriting, and authenticity that define his music. In this episode, we dive into his musical journey, the stories behind his albums, his creative process, and what's next for one of California's R&B phenom.
