We haven’t heard any new solo music from Ari Lennox since she released her Shea Butter Baby Remix EP back in March, and the Dreamville artist has returned with new tunes courtesy of Open Mic at Home. It was just a week and a half ago that the R&B singer partnered with Hamilton star Anthony Ramos to deliver their rendition of Sly and the Family Stone’s “If You Want Me to Stay,” and now she’s back with her new single, “Chocolate Pomegranate.”
The track hasn’t hit streaming services just yet, but back in April, there were reportedly leaks on YouTube. Ari Lennox premiered the sultry track and it didn’t take long for fans to plead for the studio version, so we wouldn’t be surprised if this one is released within the next few weeks. Until that time, check out Ari performing “Chocolate Pomegranate” live for Open Mic at Home.

[Verse 1]
J hanging off your brown lips
Lean over, accepting my kiss
Problems weighing you down, I power lift
Said I just want some more of this
[Pre-Chorus]
Said kiss it for me, more on my mind
Oh, that I would like to explore this time
Said flip me over, don’t deem me as unkind
I need you to fall behind
[Chorus]
Try me in public but I know this much is true
No one’s gonna ride and love you like I do, ooh-ooh
Said chocolate pomegranate, come live in this truth
No one’s gonna ride and love you like I do, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
My love is deep, you’ll find
If you can’t reach, just dip, don’t waste my time
At all, at all
At all
Hey, hey
[Pre-Chorus]
I said kiss it for me, more on my mind
Oh, that I would like to explore this time
Said flip me over, don’t deem me as unkind
I need you to fall behind
[Chorus]
Try me in public but I know this much is true
No one’s gonna ride and love you like I do, ooh-ooh
Said chocolate pomegranate, come live in this truth
No one’s gonna ride and love you like I do, ooh-ooh (I do)
[Outro]
Oh-oh
Ayy, there’s no one like me here
Ayy, ayy
In the, oh, where you like it too
In the [?] where you like it too
In the bed where you like it, yeah
In the bed where you’re talking (Baby)
In the bed where you’re talking shit
In the bed where you’re talking
Like me
Why, baby?
