“Lele” New Voice of KRYC Rhythm 105.9fm’s 60 Second Wrap-up
NEW YORK, NY April 10, 2013
Lele, a cartoon character in hip-hop oriented underground hit animated web comedy Chilltown and the star of her own ChilltownTV spin-off web series, Lele’s Ratchet Advice Show, has been tapped to do the 60 Second Wrap-Up, Thursdays at 4pm PST on Yuba City, California hip-hop radio station KRYC Rhythm 105.9fm starting April 11, 2013. This might be the first time a cartoon character has her own radio segment.
Lele, known for her wildly comedic take no prisoners stance towards the worst elements of dating and pop culture in her series, has been gaining heat.

ABCNews/Univision just named Chilltown a “Web Series That Should Be On Your Radar” and Tubefilter called it a “Show to Watch.” The weekly 60 Second Wrap-Up is part of KRYC’s Business Report hosted by Gigi Capone. Lele will tackle gossip and entertainment news in her own unique comedy style, all in 60 seconds.
Both Chilltown, which stars Chappelle’s Show alums Wil Sylvince and Dante Nero, and Lele’s Ratchet Advice Show are the brainchild of writer/self-taught animator Leesa Dean. Dean writes and animates both series for the ChilltownTV YouTube channel. She also voices Lele. “Gigi is a Chilltown fan and we’ve been twitter friends,” Dean said. “When she asked if Lele would do the 60 Second Wrap-Up, I jumped at the chance. I already listen to Gigi’s show and love it. This is gonna be a lot of fun!” Dean will write and voice the weekly segments which will air on dial and stream online at http://www.rhythm1059fm.com.

Reynard Thomas (a.k.a. Rey T.) was born in Oakland, CA
and started singing at the age of just Six (6) years old, but it wasn’t until he was Sixteen (16) that he started singing professionally with his group ” The Nine Lives “. They won every talent contest they entered; singing at school functions, dances, sock-hops, Jr. and Sr. proms. They were so busy singing at other functions, that they completely missed their own, but that was okay as they were on their way to becoming one of the hottest groups in the Bay Area. It wasn’t long before The Nine Lives was touring and performing their first recording ” It’s a Grand Day” and “Just For Fun ” written by their manager Steve Rein.
The Nine Lives would spend Rey T’s teen years traveling around the world singing and dancing and honing his talent. Which, later, would set the stage for when Rey T would become the lead singer and main focal point of Raymar, and the release of his 1st single ” I Eroctic ” on the ” Music Inc. of Oregon .” However, after having moderate success, Rey T started the group that would change his life forever, “ SpeCial ReQuest”. Special ReQuest would go on to release their first single ” April Fool ” and then Six (6) albums would follow closely behind such as: Pour The Wine, I Know A Secret, Tease, Heavenly eyes, Special Request , The Red Album.
Rey T. didn’t stop there. He and SpeCial ReQuest went on to sign with Tate Music Group (TMG) and are about to release their Seventh and most anticipated Album entitled ” I’m The Only One ,” in which the title track spun up to #8 on the World Charts. Big things are in store for this chart topping group with a range that allows him to sing any and all genres. These qualities are why Rey-T is the ultimate entertainer rather than just your run-of-the-mill musician with a lucky streak. Rey T is often imitated, but never duplicated. His signature voice has given him longevity in this ever changing world of music. Once you hear his music once, there’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that you’ll be able to recognize his voice from a mile away. One of a kind, and a fantastic performer, Rey T is a widely known musician who is in it for the music.
With a voice like Rey T’s the possibilities are limitless; in 2013 he will dominate airwaves with his sultry and unforgettable sound.
