Breaker Blues has serious 90s-esque pop/r&b vibes, with Jazz and Blues influences throughout the instrumentation and vocal lines. Definitely a different, fresh sound from what is currently trending right now: And a whole mood. I'll be releasing an accompanying music video in August. Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

Breaker Blues

Breaker Blues- Adrielle Bow Belle

I just have to keep it together...
Keep it together

In the good old days
When I was old enough
To tie my laces up
I’d hideaway someplace
I could escape

Home was a complex living
Dark complected, bills collecting
Neglected, dejected

I'd ride my bike
Pedal Pedal hard
Red light green light
Til the street lights came on

Time go by slow
When it got lonely
I’d say a little prayer
Is anybody out there?
Does anyone
Anybody, anyone
Hear?

Hear an echo
Saying let go
Go, don’t hold on no more

We don’t belong
Don’t belong
No, No
In a world so cold
Can’t carry on

Torn to pieces
Won’t be reasoned with
Gonna leave it in a letter
Let 'em lay me down
I’ll be up in the clouds
Taking my last bow
While the world keeps
Turning on

Bang Bang Bang
When the school bells ring
Some damn things
Ain’t never gonna change
One girl two girl three girl four
One out of four ain’t little no more
Don’t gimme no more bad news
Another man down
Gunned down
Youtube hitting views
Heard enough about the hard times
Been living through 'em for a long time
I’m so tired

Is it over yet
Will it ever be alright
Will we ever be alright
While the world keeps turning on
Turning on

Hear an echo
Saying let go
Go, don’t hold on no more
Oh

We don’t belong
Don’t belong
No, No
In a world so cold
Can’t carry on

Torn to pieces
Won’t be reasoned with
Gonna leave it in a letter
Let em lay me down

I’ll be up in the clouds
Taking my last bow
While the world keeps
Turning on

Ask me how i’m doing
I’m gonna be ok
I just wanna be alone right now
I just wanna be alone
Leave me alone
Til it’s all over
Leave me alone
It’s almost over

Hear an echo
Saying let go
Go, don’t hold on no more
Oh

We don’t belong
Don’t belong
No, No
In a world so cold
Can’t carry on

Torn to pieces
Won’t be reasoned with
Gonna leave it in a letter
Let 'em lay me down
I’ll be up in the clouds
Taking my last bow
While the world keeps
Turning on

Breaking News (Soul Food)

The song "I Want You Back" by Adrielle Bow Belle explores the conflicting emotions that arise when someone realizes they still have feelings for an ex-partner. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and desire to rekindle the relationship, despite the knowledge that the person may have been deceitful or dishonest in the past.

The chorus, "You's a liar, you's a cheat, oh, your love makes me weak, when you come into me, I want you back boy," expresses the singer's struggle with their emotional vulnerability. They acknowledge that the ex-partner may not be good for them, but their attraction and attachment continue to pull them back into the relationship.

Through lines like "Don't need no roses or romance and I, don't need no dinner set by candlelight," the song suggests that the singer doesn't require grand gestures of love to be convinced of the ex-partner's sincerity. Instead, they emphasize the physical and intimate connection they had, symbolized by "kissing, touching, loving." This indicates that the singer is primarily drawn to the intense passion and desire shared between the two.

The repetition of "I want you back" reinforces the singer's desire to reconcile and start anew with their ex-partner. Despite acknowledging the uncertainty and potential for heartbreak, they can't resist the pull of their emotions and continue to fall for the ex-lover over and over again.

Meaning of Small Talk by Adrielle Bow Belle

SONGTELL

"Small Talk" by Adrielle Bow Belle delves into a critique of superficial conversations and societal injustices, specifically focusing on systemic racism and inequality in America. Let's break down the key lyrics and their meanings:

The song opens with a disdain for small talk, symbolizing a desire for deeper, meaningful connections. Turning the music up and walking away from such shallow interactions represents a rejection of insincerity and a yearning for authenticity.

The lyrics "Merica, 'Merica, Land of the K-K-K, Triple K" directly reference the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist hate group known for violence and racial discrimination. This reference highlights the deep-seated racism and bigotry present in American society.

The lines "Divide the people by class, Divide the people by creed" address the divisions created by societal structures based on wealth and belief systems, exacerbating inequalities and fostering a sense of competition rather than unity.

The references to historical events like the Jim Crow laws and the mistreatment of African Americans after the abolition of slavery underscore the ongoing legacy of racism and oppression in the country.

The lyrics also touch on the issues of mass incarceration, drug epidemics, and gun violence plaguing marginalized communities, as well as the stereotypes and prejudice faced by Black individuals on a daily basis.

The repeated refrain "They don’t wanna talk about it, Small talk small talk" conveys the frustration of marginalized voices being silenced or dismissed when trying to address systemic issues and discrimination.

Overall, the song conveys a powerful message about the importance of confronting uncomfortable truths, challenging oppressive systems, and striving for genuine change and understanding in a society marked by division and inequality.

In summary, "Small Talk" by Adrielle Bow Belle serves as a poignant commentary on the need to move beyond surface-level conversations and confront the deep-rooted issues of racism, privilege, and injustice that continue to pervade American society. It encourages listeners to push past the discomfort of discussing difficult topics and work towards a more equitable and empathetic world.

"Come Home Tonight" is a pleading musical anthem which voices the well-known adage that "tomorrow is never promised." We live in a world that is so wrought with tragedy and injustice- particularly within the black community. This song goes out to anyone who has had to utter the phrase "gone to soon," especially in the face of gun violence and police brutality. Adrielle Bow Belle penned this single in dedication to the George's, Ahmad's, Breonna's- and to the victims like Purcell Gowie of East Harlem- who was just trying to get home that night. Prayers up and  #BlackLivesMatter.  <3
