Description: Sultry blues singer Lola Dupree delivers a powerful, soul-stirring experience with her album Justice for Sale, blending raw emotion with unapologetic social commentary. With her smoky vocals and fierce lyrical prowess, Lola channels the spirit of classic blues while fearlessly tackling modern injustices.

The title track, "Justice for Sale," pulls back the curtain on a rigged system, exposing corruption with a groove that lingers long after the last note. Tracks like "Catch-22" and "Make It Make Sense" confront the absurdities of systemic inequality, while "Pay Me What I’m Worth" and "Workin’ and Broke" cement Lola as a bold voice for economic justice and workers' rights.

Across 13 tracks, Justice for Sale is more than an album—it’s a movement. Lola Dupree’s blues-infused activism strikes a chord, demanding change with every lyric. Whether you’re here for the soulful melodies or the fiery message, this is music that speaks truth to power.

For fans of: Bold, socially conscious blues, vintage soul with a modern edge, and artists who aren’t afraid to tell it like it is.

Whiskey & Regrets

 

[Verse 1] Midnight whispers, neon glow, Glass in my hand, heart sinkin’ low. One more sip, then one more yet, Now I’m drownin’ in whiskey and regrets. [Verse 2] Should’ve known better, should’ve walked away, But the devil’s in the bottle, leadin’ me astray. Called up my lover, said things I forget, Now all that’s left is whiskey and regrets. [Chorus] Ohhh, the night spins, the room forgets, But the mornin’ remembers all my debts. Empty bottle, broken silhouette, Nothin’ but whiskey and regrets. [Verse 3] Promised myself, "This time’s the last," But the past just laughs and comes back fast. Tears on my pillow, love I can’t forget, Sealed with a kiss and a whiskey silhouette. [Bridge] Oh, why do I do it? Why do I fall? The liquor’s a liar, it don’t love at all. It steals my sense, leaves me upset, Tangled up in whiskey and regrets. [Chorus - Repeat] Ohhh, the night spins, the room forgets, But the mornin’ remembers all my debts. Empty bottle, broken silhouette, Nothin’ but whiskey and regrets. [Outro] Sunrise comes, but the pain won’t fade, Another night lost to the choices I made. Whiskey, my lover, my cruel silhouette, Forever drownin’ in whiskey and regrets. by The Ever Present iT!

Media Circus

 

[Verse 1] They flicker on the screen, a circus of disguise, Telling us what to think, feeding us lies. One side shouts, the other screams, opinionated assholes, and their memes. They call it news, with a twisted spin, A battle of hatred, nobody wins. [Pre-Chorus] They push your buttons and twist the truth, Selling you fear and feeding you poop, divided we stand, our nation falls, blaming each other, for crappy laws! [Chorus] Yeah man, the Boob Tube’s screamin, and enraging your minds, propaganda poison, and evil eyes. They call you names, to stoke the flame, political ideology, is a Liars game. From the TV to the tweets, it’s a maddening ride, you're not indivisible, YOU PICKED A SIDE!!! [Verse 2] Social media’s a battlefield, a war of bitter words, Every post a dagger, every comment hurts. Algorithms feed the rage, keeping us apart, Tearing down the ties, that bind heart. They profit from chaos, they thrive on divide, a nation of wreckage, rooted in Lies. [Pre-Chorus] They push your buttons and twist the truth, Selling you fear and feeding you poop, divided we stand, our nation falls, blaming each other, for crappy laws! [Chorus] Yeah man, the Boob Tube’s screamin, and enraging your minds, propaganda poison, and evil eyes. They call you names, to stoke the flame, political ideology, is Liars game. From the TV to the tweets, it’s a maddening ride, you're not indivisible, YOU PICKED A SIDE!!! [Bridge] But what if we turned it off, and let the silence speak? Found a common ground, and the peace we seek. No more labels, no more hate, Just love and hope, to change our fate. The power’s in our hands, we can break the chain, rise above the noise, and end the pain. [Chorus] Yeah man, the Boob Tube’s screamin, and enraging your minds, propaganda poison, with evil eyes. They call you names, to stoke the flame, political ideology, is a Liars game. From the TV to the tweets, it’s a maddening ride, you're not indivisible, YOU PICKED A SIDE!!! [Outro] Here’s to our future, where truth can shine, becoming indivisible, and erasing the divide. The Boob Tube’s broken, their spell’s undone, Together we’ll rise, and become one. by The Ever Present iT!

Make It Make Sense - Lola Dupree

 

[Verse 1] Cold wind's blowin' through an open door While they're talkin' 'bout the summer sun Shadows creepin' longer than before But they say the darkness hasn't come I see the storm clouds gatherin' overhead While they dance around in summer clothes I feel the weight of truth they seem to dread As the bitter reality grows [Chorus] Make it make sense, honey Make it make sense They're smilin' in the pouring rain Pretendin' it's all fine Make it make sense, darlin' Make it make sense The world's gettin' colder every day But they won't read the signs [Verse 2] Newspapers pile up with their tragic news But they scroll right by without a glance They say "just keep busy, you can't lose" Lost in their comfortable trance I watch 'em laughin' at their garden parties While the roses wilt and fade away They build their castles on the shifting sand Then wonder why they never stay [Chorus] Make it make sense, honey Make it make sense They're smilin' in the pouring rain Pretendin' it's all fine Make it make sense, darlin' Make it make sense The world's gettin' colder every day But they won't read the signs [Bridge] They close their eyes to numb the pain Hide behind their pretty lies Build their walls to keep them safe From the truth they can't disguise Oh, but baby... [Verse 3] I've tried to show them what I see But they turn away time after time They'd rather live in fantasy Than face what's on the finish line So I'll sing my song to empty rooms And pour my heart out to the night As reality slowly looms And dims their artificial light [Final Chorus] Make it make sense, honey Make it make sense They're smilin' in the pouring rain Pretendin' it's all fine Make it make sense, darlin' Make it make sense The world's gettin' colder every day And we're running out of time by The Ever Present iT!

I have posted their lyrics here, however, I have changed some of them to fit, per the rules. If you read along you will here the changes. Title: "Below the Underground" (Verse 1) You're on a roll lately, yeah, I’ve been watchin' Glad you came back, heard the beats you been droppin’ We started in silence, just files and dreams Now we’re stitching up stardust through digital seams Big ambition in a bedroom glow Looping beats where no spotlight goes It’s not about fame, it's not for the trends It’s the love of the craft, the messages we send (Pre-Chorus) We ain’t charting, but we’re moving sound Building worlds below the underground (Chorus) If not me, then maybe you Or someone we ain’t even been introduced to Every melody, a secret prayer From a basement heart to the open air We’re a part of something, can’t define An engine made of pixel and rhyme Don’t forget me when you're big-time bound We were dreamers below the underground (Verse 2) Some just do it for the rush and fun Some got visions that weigh a ton Vinyl presses and T-shirts sold But the gold ain't what makes a story bold Sometimes success feels far away But every play still lights the way We're teammates in a field unseen Chasing sounds in a cloud machine (Pre-Chorus) And I hold tight to that simple sound Of hope echoing below the underground (Chorus) If not me, then maybe you Or someone we ain’t even been introduced to Every melody, a secret prayer From a basement heart to the open air We’re a part of something, can’t define An engine made of pixel and rhyme Don’t forget me when you're big-time bound We were dreamers below the underground (Bridge) I picture a stage, lights in the mist A vinyl spin with our names on the list Delayed maybe, but never denied We ride waves no algorithm can hide (Final Chorus) If not now, then someday soon Under starlit code and a rising moon We’ll look back at the beats we found And smile at life below the underground Yeah, we’re all just sparks in the circuit sound Dreamin’ big below the underground
