Lexus and TV One join forces for a one-night lyrical event with a special presentation of the NAACP-nominated variety show Lexus Verses and Flow, airing October 26 at 11 pm ET. Dondré T. Whitfield, who is cast in the Oprah Winfrey Network drama series Queen Sugar, hosts the special evening that blends music performances by chart-topping artists with spoken word presentations from top slam poetry artists.

For five seasons, Lexus Verses and Flow has presented harmonious nights of music and spoken word. The 90-minute show delivers Grammy Award-Winning singers Joe, and Lloyd, marking his return with single “Tru,” and up-and-coming soul-singers, including Lion Babe, Ro James, Dreezy and Kevin Ross, who share the stage with 13 of the biggest names in poetry.
