TKA

TKA is a Latin Freestyle trio that was prominent in the 1980s and early 1990s, mainly in New York City and Miami, Florida. Its members originally were Tony Ortiz, Louis "Kayel" Sharpe, and Alejandro "Aby" Escoto - the original lead singer. Due to tension within the group between Kayel and Aby, the latter was later replaced by Angel "Love" Vasquez, which allowed Kayel to assume the lead vocals. The acronym TKA represents their collective initials. Early on, the group's members would state in interviews that the acronym stood for "Total Knowledge in Action," as well. All of TKA's members are of Puerto Rican descent. Many Freestyle fans consider them the kings of that genre, although Kayel seemingly downplayed this label, having jokingly stated "There are no kin… more »

 Struggling with Maria? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

She was fine, the girl was from the projects 
She had long brown hair and a body beyond compare 
She had a boyfriend, a drug dealer 
But I didn't mind, cause she wanted to be with me 
So we have to set her free 
And when I hear her name, I swear I hear the wind blow 
It drives me insane, I'll never let her go 
And I start to laugh cause I'm so afraid of crying 
And I'm dying to see her once more 

[Chorus:]
Maria, the most beautiful song I ever heard 
Maria, don't tell your boyfriend how I feel about you 
'Cause I need you, and I gotta make you mine 
I got to make you mine 

Wouldn't it be cool, if we got together 
I'll show you that I love you then you'd understand 
If he's a drug dealer, don't you know that he won't last forever 
And you need the affections of a normal man 
And when I see your name, I swear I hear the wind blow 
It drives me insane, I'll never let you go 
And I start to laugh cause I'm so afraid of crying 
And I'm dying to see you once more 

[Chorus: Repeat 3X]

Whenever she's around 
My whole world starts coming down 
And I lose control 
When she's away I began to miss her 
She holds me close and I can't resist her 
She kisses me on the lips 
Walks away and wiggles her hips 
And I lose control 
Gotta have that girl, she's all I ever wanted 
Don't tell your man 
I got a plan 
So understand that I can never be the type of guy 
That will try to make you cry
Were never true to take the blame 
So I will make your mine, don't look behind 
In time the thing will fit the crime 
Like they say, what comes around goes around 
And brings you down 
Maria, yeah some place for us 
Maria, somewhere a place for us 
Together we will be, until eternity 
Somewhere out there, I got to make you mine 
Tonight in the corners of my lonely room 
I pray for your salvation, rehabilitation 
And I pray to the lord above to forever bring me love 
And as I fall asleep to dream once more 
I have to make you mine 

[Chorus:]
