HBO's 'Insecure' has the hottest music on TV - we talked to the guy who puts it together

HBO's original series "Insecure," known for its humorous portrayal of life in LA, has been quietly gaining recognition as a beacon of hot tracks.

The series has a popular Spotify playlist that contains season one and two's soundtrack, with new songs added weekly as season two progresses - the playlist is currently at 137 songs.

The music on "Insecure" features a wide range of styles, from lauded rappers like Kendrick Lamar, and Frank Ocean, to up-and-coming R&B, neo-soul singer SZA.

Miguel and SZA have debuted new music on "Insecure" this season, and the series also reached out to some of its favorite artists (Jorja Smith, Bryson Tiller, and Jazmine Sullivan) from season one to create original tracks this season.

Business Insider spoke to "Insecure's" music supervisor Kier Lehman about how he finds "fresh" new music for "Insecure," and how he curated a selection of new and original music to match the current LA vibe of the show.
