Lyric Jones Links With Uhmeer For New Single ‘In Due Time’—A Testament to Patience and Evolution

After captivating audiences at the 2025 NAMM Show with a standout Warm Audio performance, LA-based singer, House DJ, and all-around creative powerhouse Lyric Jones is officially back in her bag. Today, she delivers In Due Time, her first single of the new year—out now on all major streaming platforms.

A Long Time Coming

The track, years in the making, is the product of persistence, evolution, and serendipitous collaboration. Originally penned over a different instrumental, “In Due Time” sat untouched for nearly two years before producer Ian Wallace breathed fresh life into it. But the real game-changer? A fateful link-up with Uhmeer at DJ Jazzy Jeff’s PLAYLIST Retreat last year, which set the final pieces in motion.

A Game-Changing Collaboration

“Initially, this song was just a demo with a rap verse by me,” Lyric explains in a press release. “I eventually reworked the lyrics to fit seamlessly with the new production ideas Ian sent over, then we finalized it over a few Zoom sessions together. The real breakthrough came after my first in-person meeting with Uhmeer. While I had already been familiar with his awesome work, it was here where I finally met him in person and reconnected with Ian. And the rest is history.”

The result is a track that’s as much a personal anthem as it is a universal message of perseverance.

“Everyone always says, ‘In due time,’ ‘Keep going,’ etc. That’s been my life’s anthem. This song is me holding onto hope that my hard work and connections aren’t for nothing… As I shift gears a little creatively and genre-wise, I’m hoping this path is the one that finally leads to the success I’ve been working hard for.” – Lyric Jones

The Evolution of an Artist

For Lyric, this release isn’t just about dropping another track—it’s a reflection of her journey. Known for blending Jazz, Soul, House, and Hip-Hop, she’s been co-signed by legends like Black Thought and Chuck D, rocked stages with Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, and Kevin Ross, and even earned nods from icons like Phife Dawg and Esperanza Spalding. Now, she’s adding yet another layer to her ever-evolving artistry, diving deeper into the DJ space with House Music and experimenting with new sonic landscapes.

While Lyric’s first foray into Dance Music can be heard on “Show You How” with Vic Mensa,  a standout from her lauded 2020 album Closer Than They Appear (executive produced by Phonte), “In Due Time”, along with her latest records from the fourth quarter of 2024 and her most recent collaborations (Close Counters‘ “Feeling Takes Over Me“, and LoMalo‘s “Go Girl“) , all serve as a soft reboot for her as an artist.

Meanwhile, Uhmeer—a genre-blurring artist in his own right—brings his signature versatility to “In Due Time.” The PG County native and son of DJ Jazzy Jeff has made waves in Hip-Hop, Neo-Soul, and beyond, working alongside heavyweights like James Poyser, Mac Ayres, and Kaidi Tatham. With a resume that includes acting stints on Girl Meets World and Power Book II, and a growing catalog of hits, Uhmeer’s presence on the track is a perfect match for Lyric’s reflective lyricism.

“In Due Time” is more than just a song—it’s proof that patience pays off, and that when the time is right, everything falls into place. Stream it now and watch Lyric Jones continue to carve out her own lane—on her own terms.
