It was in 1986 that O’Bryan recorded his 4th album of studio work Surrender. O’Bryan worked with the producers Jerry Knight and Aaron Zigman to produce the synth-infused “Tenderoni” and “Driving Force.” However, the best tracks from the record were the three ballads”You Have Got To Come To Me, “You Have Got To Come To Me”, “Maria” and “Is This For Real” — that showcased his musical talent. Surrender would be his final album on Capitol Records.

The lead single, “I’m Freaky,” was an upbeat, synth-funk song that peaked at No. 15.

The album peaked at No. 13.

On May 14, 1984 O’Bryan came out with Be My Lover that became his most charting album in terms of music (peaking as No. 3). The first single, the loud, chugging “Lovelite” — marched up the Billboard R&B Singles chart. The popularity that was “Lovelite” prompted Capitol to issue “Breakin’ Together” as the second single. However, it was O’Bryan’s love for ballads – the classic quiet storm track “Lady I Love You;” the love-struck “You’re Always On My Mind;” and “Go On And Cry,” which was the third singlewhich was one of the album’s best tracks. The title track became well-known as one of O’Bryan’s more upbeat tracks.
