Omar Apollo is a Mexican-American singer-songwriter known for his genre-blending sound, combining elements of R&#038;B, funk, soul, and Latin influences with heartfelt, bilingual lyrics. Kali Uchis is a Colombian-American artist celebrated for her sultry, versatile voice, blending R&#038;B, soul, reggaeton, and pop in her music, often with themes of love, self-empowerment, and cultural identity. I wanted to share some of my favorite songs from both artists, as well as some of the collaborations they have done in the past. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/zBukbgTN0cE?si=dv8aV1i4Mo7qq4wz\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cMoonlight\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ixTkLjTBQyk?si=fX30mbCv_3uxGgyW\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cEvergreen\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bn_p95HbHoQ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cTelepat\u00eda\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/iEAOa5Q320o?si=OfAZqW6QK_op-Czh\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cArchetype\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/lm-arr5RRaM?si=gLMfa1ZIOBo7phft\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cQuiero Sentirme Bien\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hjv2e5TdFLw?si=Q8FNEgytz0EIqxlJ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cFrio\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3aMLZm8ykoE?si=DkTC6b7r7W2zjb2s\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cFue Mejor\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/C27niROBu8A?si=s34rXaM3lG7Oq5Xc\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis and Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cWorth the Wait\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rTDm1C9QkZY?si=2x83_RqAMQ9lbOl8\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo and Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cBad Life&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/FoZFViTfMH8?si=RIK7PRDDyil6KJMF\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cKamikaze\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/EY-nAOFpenI?si=yrgNiw1J3l1cLGWg\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kali Uchis \u2013 \u201cIgual Que Un \u00c1ngel\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/yMccxoPqKkk?si=MsmB8cMic1-R9rI6\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Omar Apollo \u2013 \u201cSpite\u201d <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is a link to the whole playlist on YouTube: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLU94rco57ZeyotviKbVnGY5y5w5NRtZap&#038;si=4vWrYZ7JHqLoe5QN\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLU94rco57ZeyotviKbVnGY5y5w5NRtZap&#038;si=4vWrYZ7JHqLoe5QN<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?si=4vWrYZ7JHqLoe5QN&amp;list=PLU94rco57ZeyotviKbVnGY5y5w5NRtZap\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome back to Parsons Playlists!
