Lyrics:
[Intro]
(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
(Oh, oh - take me there)
(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
Oh, oh - take me there

Bass so low, 
feel it in your spine,
Bodies close, 
melting into time.
Lips so near, 
whisper what you crave,
Let the rhythm make 
you misbehave.

Fingertips tracing my design,
Sweat and sin dripping down like wine.
Eyes on me, pull me to the floor,
I know you want it, baby, beg for more.

Take me deeper, (lose control),
Heat is rising, (take my soul).
No more talking, (just the sound),
Of your breath as we break it (down, down, down).

Hands on skin, 
bodies intertwined,
No escape, 
caught in your tide.
Dark desires 
burning bright,
Drown in pleasure, 
lose the fight.

Fingertips tracing my design,
Sweat and sin dripping down like wine.
Eyes on me, pull me to the floor,
I know you want it, baby, beg for more.

Take me deeper, (lose control),
Heat is rising, (take my soul).
No more talking, (just the sound),
Of your breath as we break it (down, down, down).

(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
(Oh, oh - take me there)
(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
Oh, oh - take me there

Give it up,
don’t hold back,
Ride the bass, 
fade to black.
One more touch, 
one more taste,
Let’s get lost 
(in pure embrace).

Take me deeper, (lose control),
Heat is rising, (take my soul).
No more talking, (just the sound),
Of your breath as we break it (down, down, down).

(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
(Oh, oh - take me there)
(Oh, oh - deeper, deeper)
Oh, oh - take me there
Oh, oh - deeper, deeper
Oh, oh - take me there
Oh, oh - deeper, deeper
Oh, oh - take me there

take me deeper

The lyrics of this week:
It’s the week in the wild, news on the beat,
Strange headlines ride where the rhymes all meet,
From the chaos, the funny, to the crazy bizarre,
We flip the world’s script, make you nod where you are.

Week 38, world’s a stage, weird scenes in every page
We got Chuck Tingle dropping dinosaur love on the airwaves, engage
“Sexy dinosaurs, hot tigers, handsome boats” — his world’s absurd
Erotica meets surrealism — his pen’s a wild bird
From that to viral stunts, to athletes bending norms
Japanese athlete runs on all fours — record breaks, how it performs

Week by week, new vibe, new heat,
Every headline flips, every rhyme repeats,
It’s the news rap flow, truth spun in a song,
If you blink, you’ll miss it — the world moves on.

From erotic dinos to feet on all limbs,
We slide into the odd, where life’s on a whim.

LimeWire buys Fyre Festival — what could possibly go wrong?
Media buzz, disaster past meets remix in a song
A doctor walks out mid-operation — “Yo, I gotta go do me”
He leaves the OR, scandal’s born, headlines set free
And in California out in the wild, a donkey shot by arrow flies
Recovering slow, people stunned, raising eyebrows to the skies

Week by week, new vibe, new heat,
Every headline flips, every rhyme repeats,
It’s the news rap flow, truth spun in a song,
If you blink, you’ll miss it — the world moves on.

Flip drip, quick spit, tick-tick, lit hit,
Snap clap, back track, rap pack, fast stack,
Flow glow, go show, throw low, blow grow,
Chop drop, nonstop, hip-hop, tick-tock,
Zoom boom, doom room, shroom bloom, loud tune,
Whip slip, trip flip, grip rip, zip clip,
Spin grin, win in, thin skin, kin twin,
Flash dash, clash smash, rash crash — splash!

In New Zealand, a father vanished into forest with kids — years untold
Cops probe how masked life could hide in plain sight, truth to unfold
Meanwhile, chimpanzees sip “boozy” fruit, daily cocktail in the wild
Nature’s party in the jungle — tipsy apes behaving mild
And octopus “Ghost” in California, tending eggs, final life wave
Fans bid farewell underwater — tender, strange, surreal and brave

Week by week, new vibe, new heat,
Every headline flips, every rhyme repeats,
It’s the news rap flow, truth spun in a song,
If you blink, you’ll miss it — the world moves on.

So there’s Week 38 in rhyme and absurd,
Real stories so strange, they sound like a word,
From erotica dinos to Fyre revival,
Doctor escape, donkey’s survival, trees and tidal,
This world’s a mixtape of weird, you feel that beat?
With a fast-rap blast, I seal the heat.

Those special headlines which did not get the attention they may should have gotten ... or not :p

The lyrics of this week:
Week 40, strange and raw —
From comets green to generals’ law.
Blood rains, meteors, squirrels attack,
The headlines wild — we put them on track.

Quantico grounds with the brass in command,
Hegseth hosts generals, the nation takes a stand.
Standards debated, the warrior code tight,
Behind closed doors where the future takes flight.

C/2025 SWAN streaks emerald through the sky,
Astronomers marvel as its orbit passes by.
October lights shimmer, space magic in view,
A comet painted green like a neon hue.

Talks of conflict push fears worldwide,
Expert says “New Zealand, Aussie” — safest to hide.
UK targets listed, the tension runs steep,
The doomsday chatter shakes souls in their sleep.

Hormuz skies cry crimson, scarlet mist falls,
Tourists shocked still — nature shocks all.
They call it “blood rain,” a surreal desert show,
A scarlet storm paints the earth below.

Oooooo…
Green lights, red skies, meteors fall,
Whispers of war, we’ve heard it all.
From generals’ halls to squirrels untamed,
The world is wild, it can’t be framed.

The dragons awake in the October night,
Meteor storms blazing, streaks burning bright.
Radar predicts it, a shower untamed,
The heavens exploding, the sky unchained.

South Africa stunned, a hospital scene,
Cleaner caught hustling human organs obscene.
Placentas for profit, a black-market trade,
A tale so grim it chills when replayed.

Cali folks running from a squirrel gone mad,
Scratching, biting neighbors — the menace is bad.
Rodent rebellion in suburban streets,
Tiny claws striking with a fury that beats.

Missouri nights lit with neon glow,
A worker stole cash, let the register go.
Fed it to slots chasing flashing lights,
But luck never pays back those desperate nights.

Oooooo…

Colonel’s brand drops toothpaste fried,
Brush with gravy? Fans laugh, horrified.
Marketing stunt or flavor crime?
Fast food future gone out of line.

Oklahoma rumors of robot bird fight,
Law bans machines from poultry’s night.
Strangest statute in the legal game,
Robot vs rooster — bizarre by name.

“In Virginia the generals gathered in power, reshaping the rules at a critical hour,
And a comet lit green in October’s view, space reminding us magic is true.
Experts warned of nuclear threat, safe zones whispered where fear is met,
Hormuz rained crimson, skies ran red, a blood-stained desert where legends are fed.
Meteors forecast in dragon flame, streaks of the heavens in glory untamed,
South Africa’s scandal of organs sold, a chilling story in markets cold.
California’s squirrel attacks in the street, neighbors fleeing fast from tiny feet,
While a clerk fed slots with stolen cash, spinning reels until hopes were dashed.
KFC toothpaste made headlines bend, fried chicken flavor with a bathroom end,
And laws wrote rules for robotic hens, week 40 wrapped — where the madness blends.”

Oooooo…

Week 40 — headlines strange and true,
Rap the bizarre, bring the news to you.
From comets to toothpaste, meteors to rain,
We rhyme the chaos, we ride the insane.

Those special headlines which did not get the attention they may should have gotten...

Lyrics:
Week 41, October flames, Quiet whispers, generals and strange games.
Comets, hoaxes, spies, squirrels, codes — world’s weird in heavy loads.
Let’s ride the headlines hard — double-time, raw flow, here we go.
Quantico called, 800+ generals and admirals in line,
Hegseth laid down new rules, standards sharp, a tightened sign.
Trump joined with veiled threats: “Stay or fall,” future at stake,
The war room shaken, as military brass try not to break. 
65-year-old with a lump that grew sixteen years long,
Russian docs cut it free — benign lipoma in the strong.
Ignored until surgery day, skin stretched, whispers in the crowd,
A mass removed, but the story’s weight still loud. 
Lubbock cops joked, “narcotic horse,” and Ramirez ran in fear,
Mounted units chased him down — absurdity surreal & clear.
He’s charged, they laugh, the chase begins on hoof and law’s grip,
Texas night turns gallop scene — comedy in every slip. 
Yaz Chapman, Portsmouth mother, eating cigarette papers day by day,
Four sheets at a time she rips, swallowing weird cravings on display.
Doctors nod at pica’s hold, strange consumption out of norm,
Crushed chalk, paper cravings swirl — a hunger beyond the storm. 

Oooooo …
Sky crack, halls echo, war calls,
Beasts bite, minds fight, sensor walls.
Cosmic dust in night, tumors cut, twilight.
We ride through the noise — truth in flight.

San Rafael streets, mean squirrels out of the woodwork creep,
Claws in skin, posts on poles, warnings for all to see & weep.
Wildlife emboldened when humans feed, the bite grows bold,
In suburban calm, rodent rage reveals a story told. 
Teaching assistant sprays stink mimic in Florence school halls,
Nausea, chaos follow as staff scramble down the halls.
$55,000 later, they hunt the culprit in silly war,
What starts as smell becomes a fight worth much more. 
In Shizuoka a man steals 50 fire hose nozzles, odd haul,
Police scratch heads – why hold them? No resale, no reason at all.
Public risk looms when nozzles vanish from the streets,
An absurd heist nobody can really piece. 
King Atehene, Kofi Offeh, tribe asked to move, refused,
Thrown to council land, legal fight born, ancestral rights abused.
Relocations turned battlelines over fence and ancient claim,
Council ups legal heat — this land war’s no tame game. 

Oooooo …

Holiday Inn drops aroma alarms: coffee, bacon, muffins wake,
Vacant rooms in Asia smell-wake clocks with scents that quake.
Sniff-wake mornings made real in hotels far and wide,
Wake up with smell, mind tricked, time on scented tide. 
Draconid meteors set to blaze, Oct 8 gets night’s sky lit,
Radar forecasts predict a storm of streaks in cosmic fit.
Dust trails from 2005 & 2012 collide, northern skies may glow,
Observers wait with eyes up, to catch the meteor flow.

NO KINGs special this week... (all links to the stories are under the lyrics)

Lyrics:
Week 42, the streets ignite,
Crowds in colors, justice in sight.
From Amsterdam rain to L.A. fire,
Kings fall down, the people rise higher.

Amsterdam’s glow turned gray in the crowd’s dismay,
Orange flags down, the chants won’t fade away.
Smoke bombs, anger, the councils shake,
Six arrests made — the system quake.
Amersfoort tense, Hoorn on edge,
Locals draw lines, they make their pledge.
“AZC weg ermee” — voices collide,
Freedom and fear on opposite sides.

Madagascar youth, fists high to the moon,
Peru to Rabat, same global tune.
Tired of the silence, broke and confined,
Gen Z demands: “Redesign humankind.”
Hashtags blazing, banners alive,
Digital dreams keep hope to survive.
Climate, corruption, inequality’s sting,
New century calls for a different king.

Ooooo — voices high, hearts collide,
Under stars, through streets worldwide.
Chains unmade, a new song rings,
Crowns fall silent — we wear our wings.

Quarter-million strong, red flags in flight,
Gaza’s name shouted through Dutch night.
Paris, Berlin, London replied,
When one city roared, ten others cried.
Solidarity woven through chants and signs,
Crowds turned avenues into living lines.
Drums beat heavy, a single demand,
Peace for the people across every land.

In Japan, a man steals fifty hose nozzles overnight,
Police still baffled, motive out of sight.
A Bolivian mayor declared his llama the new “chief of cheer,”
Voters agreed — democracy’s weird frontier.
An Aussie pub banned clowns for “disrupting the bar,”
After balloon fights and a spilled guitar.
Kenyan goats painted pink for a wedding scene,
World spins stranger than it’s ever been.

Ooooo ...

From Boston to D.C., the banners burned gold in the light,
“No Kings, no crowns!” echoed deep through the night.
Old statues faced chants, the crowd refused to yield,
Voices for the people, fists high in the field.
Atlanta’s streets thundered, drums hit the dawn,
They said, “We built the throne — now the throne is gone.”
Freedom’s anthem twisted in a rebel’s song,
Marchers moving steady, ten thousand strong.

L.A. lit flares near the City Hall gate,
Wall Street heard chants ’bout equality and fate.
From Chicago to Portland, same fire, same wings —
This week the people shouted loud: No Kings

Boston, Houston, Detroit, Chicago, D.C., Philly, Austin,
L.A., Portland, Denver, Seattle, Atlanta, Miami, Boston,
Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, Rabat, Lima, Manila, Nairobi,
London, Lisbon, Cape Town, Sydney, Seoul, Tokyo — global lobby.
March, shout, rise, burn, truth, learn, turn, yearn,
No Kings, no crowns, people, found, hands up, ground, sound, bound.

Ooooo ...

Week 42, rebellion sung,
The young, the brave, the loud, the unsung.
From protest lines to cosmic things,
The message clear: NO MORE KINGS !

The lyrics of this week:
Snap your fingers, feel the street pulse,
City lights flicker, ghosts in waltz.
From the alley to the skyline’s ring,
Hear the clash — the world’s undoing.

In Athens the sirens blared, workers struck for thirteen-hour days,
Greek ferries still, the city still, revolt in ancient ways.
Meanwhile in Stockholm a phantom bus roams out at night,
No driver seen, no ticket beep — just headlights in moonlight.

Beijing time cracked — China says the USA hacked their clock,
“42 cyber-tools” in the night — watch your seconds tick and drop.
In Manila students walked out, corruption’s smell in the hall,
They painted walls with truth and spite, university doors fall.

Click-clack shoes on the cobblestone floor,
Ghosts get paid when the crowd wants more.
Zombies in tuxedos snap to the tune,
Saxophones wail under pumpkin moon.
Spirits sippin’ coffee in a late-night bar,
Jazz hands shimmer where the weird folks are.
Laugh through the chaos, hum through the fright,
World gone spooky — we swing through the night!

In Dublin flames rose, asylum centre in the glare,
Flares, bottles, chaos mix — “Us first!” the angry air.
In Paris the “Block Everything” folks chanted, disrupted pay and plan,
Strikes and sit-ins in the metro, French revolt wears no mask or scan.

In Tokyo a museum’s hall whispered footsteps in dark rooms,
Ghost tours booked out, lights flicker, horror hums in old tombs.
And in Portland, Oregon — yes USA but this one playful chill —
Costumed frogs and dinosaur suits protest with weird skill.

Click-clack shoes on the cobblestone floor...

A comet trails above the desert, meteors ready to rain,
Radar spies the Draconids, midnight sky to terrify the brain.
In San Marino’s vampire museum, horns and hooves in the night,
Krampus glare behind the glass — you might not sleep just right.

In Budapest they find ritual marks in castles old and worn,
Daisy wheels, hexafoils, walls cursed since early morn.
And in Lima the water riots broke out — pipes dry, maps soaked,
Residents in colourful chaos, hope and anger provoked.

strike, night, myth, fright,
frog, mask, protest, last,
time, crime, ghost, host,
comet, rocket, drip, flip,
blocks, knocks, clocks, shocks,
riot, diet, shout, pout,
crawl, shawl, wall, fall,
growl, howl, owl, prowl.

Click-clack shoes on the cobblestone floor...

Week 43 rolled in with a grin and a shiver,
Ghosts of systems, clocks a-twitchin’, the world’s got a quiver.
Protests, devils, meteor trails and mask parades,
We ride the weird, we drop the beat — the rap crusade.

The lyrics of this week:
October’s wind blows through the East Wing halls,
The files locked down, the system stalls.
Ice raids, midnight courts, the gloves come off,
While the promises vanish, the headlines scoff.
Venezuela whispers of regime change in code,
Boats struck in the Pacific, the story’s flowed.
Shutdown looms, 42 m will lose their meal,
Food stamps frozen while the elites deal.

Release the files, let the secrets fly,
No more shadows, no more alibi.
Stop the false-flags, end the hunger game,
Food stamps broken but the power’s the same.
We want the truth, not a staged show,
MAGA masks off, let the light glow.
Epstein files open, dust off the lie,
White House whispers fade — we testify.

White House claims: “We fight cartels, protect the land,”
But the dossiers sit sealed, the people demand.
MAGA chants echo: “Justice delayed, not denied,”
Yet the towers of power hush what they hide.
SNAP funds vanish, hunger’s creeping in,
While the Capitol passes motions thin.
Drug-boat strikes kill in the Caribbean night,
Is it drugs or war? The cover-ups blight.

Release the files, let the secrets fly,

“They say we’re at war with cartels but hide the Epstein trove,
Ships sink in darkness off Venezuela’s coast while the White House holds the glove.
SNAP benefits drip away for millions who wait at the door,
Meanwhile the MAGA squad marches loud but won’t open the vault anymore.
The aircraft carrier sails into the Caribbean blue, bulls-eye on Maduro’s view,
But the files of power stay buried deep — who decides what we get to view?
False flags fly high in the midnight air, hunger’s shadow over the state,
We demand disclosure, transparency now — no more silence on the plate.”

Release the files, let the secrets fly,..

Freedom rings hollow when the budget fails,
Agencies furloughed, democracy pales.
The Senate blocks debates, the republic’s drained,
While the facts stay silent, the distrust remains.
From Washington’s rounds to Latin waves,
The story’s global, the power engraves.
The screams for truth cut sharper than bombs,
October’s stage loaded — the cover-up bombs.

October’s tale ripped open the seams,
Cover-ups, hunger, military dreams.
We rap the truth that they keep in the dark,
Let the files fly, let the people spark.

NewsHop - October of 2025

The lyrics of this week:
Glow the jack-o-lanterns, midnight on the street,
Ghosts in city alleys, dance with our heartbeat.
Laugh at the shadows, hear the midnight ring,
Trick or treat worldwide — let the weirdness sing.

In Los Angeles a comedian scares her boyfriend each dawn,
Five morning costumes—clown, Jigsaw, Edward Scissor-arms drawn.
He wakes with terror, she grins in delight, viral for the fright.
That’s US Halloween play, twisted fun under daylight.
In Paris the “Red Balloon” stunt creeps across the metro line,
Pennywise pop-ups in Madrid, Singapore, Sydney night so fine.
Five continents gasped, horror marketing gone global wide,
Scare-tourists love the jump-scare, photo-bombing the vibe.

Boo in the groove, moonlight moves,
Ghosts got rhythm and the witches approve.
Snap with the bats, shake with the ghouls,
Freaks on the beat, yeah we bend all the rules.
Trick, treat, heartbeat boom,
Pumpkin bass drops fill the room.
Laugh through the fear, groove through the fright,
Halloween worldwide — we own the night!

On the Isle of Man the “original Halloween” holds bonfires by the sea,
Turnip lanterns, ghost dog tails, folklore runs free.
Castletown’s Witches Mill whispers secrets of the night,
Haunted bridges, fairy legend scenes—haunt your mind till daylight.
In Glasgow a carnival moves its location, spook factor turned up three,
Spooktacular by the Clyde, rides and ghouls by the quay.
Families flock to Ferris-wheels under spectre light,
Creepy giggles, ghostly fog—October’s prime delight.

Boo in the groove, moonlight moves,
Ghosts got rhythm and the witches approve.
Snap with the bats, shake with the ghouls,
Freaks on the beat, yeah we bend all the rules.
Trick, treat, heartbeat boom,
Pumpkin bass drops fill the room.
Laugh through the fear, groove through the fright,
Halloween worldwide — we own the night!

Costume change every morning, from clown to puppet terror, love and horror fused in daylight,
Red balloons drifting over five continents, Pennywise smiled at you but said ‘goodnight’.
Turnips carved on isle of myth, fairy bridges whisper in the dusk, ancient spirits dance on the sea,
Glasgow’s carnival moves to riverside, ghosts ride rollercoasters with kids in glee.”

Boo in the groove, moonlight moves,
Ghosts got rhythm and the witches approve.
Snap with the bats, shake with the ghouls,
Freaks on the beat, yeah we bend all the rules.
Trick, treat, heartbeat boom,
Pumpkin bass drops fill the room.
Laugh through the fear, groove through the fright,
Halloween worldwide — we own the night!

Week 44 spun its ghost tale—funny freaked, globally scaled.
From LA wake-ups, to mythic isles, to clowns in Paris-miles.
We laugh at the fright, we join the light,
Halloween’s global rap—spooky, silly, tight.

NewsHop - week 44 of 2025

Those special headlines which did not get the attention they may should have gotten ... or not :p

The lyrics of this week:
Yeah, week 45, where the comets hide and the headlines twist,
Where kangaroos rob banks and vending dreams persist.
From Delhi’s rats to haunted doors in the States,
We orbit the strange — where fate speculates.

3i/ATLAS hides behind the solar glare,
Earth’s eyes blind while it rounds the flare.
Alien whispers in the journal scans,
Gas tail growing, mysteries in our hands.
A spacecraft or a roam-of-stars? The speculation stands.
In Australia, a kangaroo hop-robber steals the stage,
Pouches and hops, bank teller in rage.
In India Delhi’s rats outrun the metro’s lights,
Passengers duck, chaos in the nights.

[CHORUS]
Stars go blink, Earth holds its breath,
Laugh at the void, we flirt with death.
Ghosts and clowns in cosmic run,
Life gets wild when you hide from the Sun!
Fly the comet, twist the night,
Hidden behind the Sun, out of sight.
Wide-world weird, let the truth take flight,
Week 45’s loco dance under moonlight.

In Brazil the Amazon’s mirror got burned by viral dare,
Influencers live-stream flames while tribes stop and stare.
In Japan a vending machine dispenses socks that smell like sushi roll,
Tourists snap the odd, viral goes full troll.
In the U.S., Wisconsin’s haunted hotel offers ghost tours at dawn,
Guests pay extra just to scream when the lights go on.
Week 45 spins weird like a carnival gone wrong,
Laugh-creep mix, world singing its off-beat song.

[CHORUS]
Stars go blink, Earth holds its breath...

space, chase, tail, veil,
sun, run, hidden, forbidden,
roar, floor, mars, stars,
hops, flops, banks, tanks,
rats, mats, tracks, packs,
burn, yearn, live, dive,
socks, shocks, rolls, trolls,
ghosts, hosts, fears, cheers.

[CHORUS]
Stars go blink, Earth holds its breath...

Week 45 spun cosmic and local odd,
From interstellar comets to vending machine fraud.
We rap the weird, we track the strange,
Next week we ride new headlines in range.

Lyrics:
Rad, bad, mad, gnarly and tight,
VHS dream, neon light,
Boom box blast, lace so white,
Poplock, moonwalk, fly all night.
Tubular moves, break it, dude,
Retro mood, attitude, crude.
Word to your mother, spin that base,
Cassette tape love in your face.

Dope, phat, hype, fresh in the zone,
Pager on blast, flip that phone,
Grunge and rave, underground tone,
Flow so sick, chillin' alone.
Whassup, yo, keep it real,
Kickflip deal, mass appeal.
Mad props, no cap back then,
Yo MTV, drop it again.

Bling bling, MySpace king,
Auto-tune hook, let the ringtone sing.
LOL, BRB, MSN ping,
Crunk in the club, let the body swing.
Emo tears, skinny jeans tight,
Bebo night, pixel fight.
YOLO glow, flash so bright,
Hashtag life, online rite.

Lit, savage, squad on deck,
Viral check, flex, respect.
Snap that, streak that, double-tap fame,
Clout game flame, no shame.
Finsta drama, drip too mean,
Woke dream, vape stream.
Gucci gang slang, bassline scream,
Lowkey supreme in the meme machine.

No cap, fr, bet, sheesh,
Main character arc, softcore peach.
Touch grass, vibe check, delulu loop,
AI groove, Schranz troop.
Sigma grind, brain rot time,
Rizz divine, slay that rhyme.
NPC mode, it’s giving clean,
Gyatt scene, IRL unseen.

Skibidi bop, Ohio drop,
Fanum tax, can’t stop.
Rizzlord talk, 6/7 trend,
Loop don’t end, send, send, send.
Sigma stare, NPC vibe,
Skibidi toilet, live, subscribe.
Ayo, bet, that’s peak, no mid,
W energy, slay that grid.

Rad, Hype, Bling, Lit, Sheesh,
Wave to wave, word to speech,
Gyatt alert, delulu zone,
Brain rot tone, cap dethrone.
Kai chat spam, stream go wild,
NPC smile, meme compiled.
Skibidi flow, rizz reload,
Endless mode, code explode.

The lyrics of this week:
Week 46 slides in with a whisper on the wire,
Skies glitch, borders twitch, and the world walks the high wire.
Funny, eerie, sideways news drifting like a tide —
Hold tight, we ride the weird worldwide.

In Norway a herd of reindeer raided a town café,
Ate pastries, spilled cocoa, then wandered away.
Locals shrugged — “It’s winter, they’re bored,”
Another day, another coffee shop stormed.
In South Korea a drone show spelled “WHO TURNED THE WIFI OFF?”,
City gathered laughing, the mayor played it off.
Techies blamed a glitch, others said the sky was trolling,
Either way, Seoul got a cosmic rolling.

[CHORUS]
Float with me, let the world unroll,
Shadows dance where the stories stroll.
Laugh through the strange, drift through the light,
Week 46 sways deep in the night.
Ghosts in the headlines, truth on a string,
Chaos hums but the people sing.
Ride the breeze where the odd winds blow,
Float with me — let the whole world glow.

In Kenya a baboon stole a police officer’s hat,
Wore it like royalty — strutting proud and fat.
Tourists filmed the moment, cheering in delight,
Monkey monarchy crowned that night.
In Italy Venice flooded upwards, fountains reversing streams,
Locals joked they’d slipped into someone else’s dreams.
Scientists puzzled — “just pressure,” they said,
But the tourists called it magic instead.

[CHORUS]
Float with me, let the world unroll...

Drift… slow turn…
Headlines flicker, lanterns burn.
Rivers rise, drones spell the sky,
Reindeer wander, seasons sigh.
World spins sideways, soft and deep —
Float with the strange… don’t fall asleep.

In Bolivia a parade of dancing skeletons jammed with a brass band,
Tourists joined the groove — wildest festival in the land.
Masks cracked smiles wider than their bone-white grins,
Spirits of November shaking off old sins.
Only U.S. note — in Maine, lighthouse ghosts went viral again,
Tourists swear they saw three flickering men.
Fog too thick? Or cameras too sharp?
Week 46 keeps playing its part.

[CHORUS]
Float with me, let the world unroll...

So we drift through the odd, through the chaos and shine,
Week 46 humming like a cosmic sign.
Hold the rhythm, let the world unfold,
Strange is the story — and the story is gold.

NewsHop - week 46 of 2025

The lyrics of this week:
Whispers on the wind — Week 47, where the odd meets the sky,
3I comet hiding behind the sun, while the world laughs and sighs.
Strange skies, strange lives — people dance with the absurd,
We ride the echo, voice the weird, every spoken word.

[CHORUS]
Echoes on the wind, shadows blend,
Mysteries swirl — where the weird begins.
Laugh with the ghosts, cry with the stars,
Week 47 floats past Venus and Mars.
Glow of the comet, silent and shy,
Hidden truth behind the Sun in the sky.
Whisper your fears, let the story spin,
Hold tight — echoes on the wind. 

3I/ATLAS glows, cloaked in solar fire,
Earth’s eyes are blind — we watch it from the wire.
Science hums questions, hearts beat in awe,
Is it relic? Is it alien? What cosmic law?
Storm Amy howled across northwestern lands,
Winds tore and bent where the forests stand. 
Tornadoes danced in Europe — roofs flew off in surprise,
Val-d’Oise shook under October’s angry skies. 

[CHORUS]
Echoes on the wind, shadows blend...

In a Swedish town, their hair turned emerald overnight,
Water pipe magic or some wild toxic light. 
A chat-bot named Logic sat on a board, voting like a pro,
In Wyoming’s council hall — weird democracy show. 
And in Idaho, every dog at 3:33 a.m. barked in unison —
A town-wide howl under the moon, like some spectral siren. 

comet → mettle → tellow → lowlight → twilight → tightrope → open → pensive → viscous → cousin → uncanny → nightfall → alley → echo → omen → menace → essence → spectral → alchemy → mystery → story → yonder → riddle → delirious → us → sunset → tether → herether → other → otherworld → dreamworld → swirl → whorl → lowirl → spiral → ail → tail → tale

[CHORUS]
Echoes on the wind, shadows blend...

A timeless wedding dress from 1822 fits a bride today,
Creepy coincidence or ghost-thread in play. 
At the Louvre they busted two thieves — jewels, masks, a heist so bold,
Crown pieces stolen in the dark, secret deals sold. 
Antarctic skies saw an asteroid skim close — no chaos, just cold,
A meter-wide visitor from space, a story ancient and old. 

[CHORUS]
Echoes on the wind, shadows blend...

Week 47 whispers still in the air,
Comets drift, dogs bark, AI dares.
We ride the strange, we speak our truth,
Echoes on the wind — from cosmos to youth.

The lyrics of this week:
Turn the dial up on hope — Week 48, we flip the script,
From headlines of despair to stories where light won’t quit.
Globes spinning, hearts warming, little wins around the Earth,
Here’s the news you missed — the beauty, the joy, the worth.

In Egypt, trachoma — blindness’ ancient fear —
Got struck down: no more worry for eyes now clear. 
Across the lands, 86 million young girls now safe from cancer’s chain,
HPV shots given — a future without pain. 
Meanwhile forests in Scotland stretch in green revival’s name,
Highlands breathe again — nature healing, wild reclaimed. 
Cities swap traffic fumes for cycling wheels spinning free,
In Utrecht the world’s best bike city — breeze, freedom, unity. 

[CHORUS]
Don’t just watch the dark — see the dawn,
Good news rising, new light’s born.
Celebrate the smile, the green leaf, the rain,
Life’s got stories where hope remains.
Turn the page, lift your eyes, feel the rise,
Across the seas, under open skies.
From small wins to change that thrives,
Watch the bright side — that’s how we vibe.

Ocean guardians win: treaty for seas now signed,
High Seas Treaty rising hope — for whales, reefs, all mankind. 
Solar power keeps climbing: energy from sun replaces pain,
Roof to field, clean watts for all — light for sun, jobs for rain. 
Families once blocked from finance now hold their own bank key,
Women rising, futures bright — ~73% now bank-account free. 
Gig-ticket profiteers lose grip — music shows for fans, not bots,
Justice for the people — let the rhythms hit the spots. 

[CHORUS]
Don’t just watch the dark — see the dawn...

Feel the breeze, feel the beat…
Earth spins slow, hearts sync, life is sweet.
Green leaves, clean seas, open hands, new keys.
Hope whispers low — breathe, believe, release.

Tech meets care: tooth enamel repair, science gives a gift,
Gel grows new enamel strong — bright smiles, lifting spirits swift. 
Children learn climate truth — Europe’s schools plant the seed,
Tomorrow’s minds aware, guided toward earth’s need. 
Refugee voices find pen — writers sing their truth in verse,
New literary prize raised up — from struggle to universe. 
From small town waves to global moves, hope spreads around the globe,
In every quiet win, every healed wound — the human heart is bold.

[CHORUS]
Don’t just watch the dark — see the dawn...

Week 48 — we lit the flame, cast aside the gloom,
Shared global kindness, Earth’s soft boom.
From tiny seeds to ocean treaties, from health to green reprise,
We rap the good — let it echo loud, beyond the front-page lies.

Lyrics:
November turns the page — cold air, warmer hearts,
Globes spin in colour, hope stirring where it starts.
We ride the ripple of change — quiet wins, subtle light,
From COP halls to kitchen smells — the world finds new sight.

[CHORUS]
November glow, let the stories rise,
From quiet corners to open skies.
Don’t just watch the chaos — feel the calm,
In every sunrise there’s a healing balm.
Lift your eyes, catch the subtle beam,
Hope moves softly — like a gentle dream.
November glow — see the good unfold,
Hearts beating steady while the world gets bold.

At the summit in Belém, green pledges rose though the heat,
Countries spoke of forests, carbon cuts, and climate’s beat. 
From Brazil to Brussels — new funds for Earth’s healing plan,
When leaders shake hands, hope spreads across the land. 
In India’s Ahmedabad, flavours fused at FFTFest 2025,
Chefs, spices, laughs and plates — culture alive, souls felt alive. 
People toasted diversity, tasted global dreams in local streets,
November’s feast of union — when food and hearts meet.

[CHORUS]
November glow, let the stories rise...

Green forest breath in Brazil, deforestation down — lands reclaim,
Cerrado’s savanna sighs again, earth healed a little in its name. 
Nigeria lights a carbon-finance market, hopes to grow a greener field,
Africa’s step to future proof — where soil heals, air yields. 
In Geneva, health meets planet — One Health forum echoes change,
Scientists, farmers, voices unite — illness and nature exchange. 
Cross-continent care, for animals and humans joined in one frame,
November’s quiet revolution — where compassion earns its flame.

[CHORUS]
November glow, let the stories rise...

Tech and art swayed in peaceful halls — summits of hope not guns,
G20 in Johannesburg called solidarity, sustainability for all sons. 
Even without every leader present — unity still made its stand,
Africa-led summit whispering loud: the future’s in our hands.
As COP30 wraps with tension, but also with pledges signed,
Communities push for climate health — a chance for humankind. 
November’s not just storms and screams — there’s works, there’s plans, there’s hope,
In hidden deals, in whispered deals — new roots begin to grow.

[CHORUS]
November glow, let the stories rise...

green , clean , scene , mean ,
rise , skies , wise , prize ,
root , shoot , earth , worth ,
tone , bone , stone , home ,
heal , feel , real , zeal ,
food , mood , good , hood ,
tree , free , sea , be ,
light , night , fight , right ,

grow , flow , glow , show ,

earth , birth , worth , hearth ,
love , dove , prove , move ,

[CHORUS]
November glow, let the stories rise...

November spun soft — not with storms, but with seeds,
Hope in soil, light in deals, quiet doers planting deeds.
We ride this glow, we rap this beat, the small wins in our mind,
Stay tuned — next month rolls fresh, new stories for mankind.

Lyrics:
Frei (frei, frei)
Die Gedanken sind
Frei (frei, frei, frei, frei, frei)

Die Gedanken sind frei,
Wer kann sie errathen?
Sie rauschen vorbei
Wie nächtliche Schatten.
Kein Mensch kann sie wißen,
Kein Jäger sie schießen.
Es bleibet dabei:
Die Gedanken sind frei.

Ich denke was ich will
Und was mich beglücket,
Doch alles in der Still
Und wie es sich schicket.
Mein Wunsch und Begehren
Kann niemand verwehren.
Es bleibet dabei:
Die Gedanken sind frei.

Und sperrt man mich ein
Im finsteren Kerker,
Das alles sind rein
Vergebliche Werke;
Denn meine Gedanken
Zerreißen die Schranken
Und Mauern entzwei:
Die Gedanken sind frei.

Nun will ich auf immer
Den Sorgen entsagen,
Und will mich auch nimmer
Mit Sorgen mehr plagen.
Man kann ja im Herzen
Stets lachen und scherzen
Und denken dabei:
Die Gedanken sind frei.

Ich liebe das tanzen,
mit meinen Schranzen,
Den Bass in den Füßen
lässt das Leben versüßen.
Ich tanze nicht alleine
im nächtlichen Mondschein,
Meine Schranzen mit dabei:
Die Gedanken sind frei.

Frei (frei, frei)
Die Gedanken sind
Frei (frei, frei, frei, frei, frei)

Die Gedanken sind frei

Lyrics:
Turn up the volume, let the quiet wins ring loud,
In a world of loud headlines — here’s the calm beneath the cloud.
From deserts to deep sea, from science labs to forest green,
Week 49 brings hope — not always seen, but always keen.

In southeast Turkey, archaeologists unearthed ancient stone,
Neolithic relics telling tales of human bones. 
Walls carved, households old — a bridge across time grown,
History whispered softly — our roots alive, not gone.
Out in deep ocean’s twilight zone, guardians raised a shield,
No deep-sea mining yet — for nature’s breath, humanity kneeled. 
Fish and plankton safe tonight, carbon sinks breathing still,
Earth’s lungs catching strength again — slow, soft, but real.
Mexico’s jaguar count climbed high — wild paws roam free,
Green light for rainforest kings — land reclaimed in dignity. 
From Amazon to urban hearts, the wild finds a way,
Life pulses through the canopy — tomorrow gets its say.

[CHORUS]
Good vibes worldwide, under starry skies,
From silent breakthroughs to planet-wise.
Turn the page, light the flame, let hope stay alive,
Week 49 — we lift, we thrive, we drive.
Hear the earth heal, hear the cultures blend,
Voices rise global — this world’s our friend.
Good news rising, like the morning tide,
Hold the good, share the love — global good vibes.

In Antarctica’s labs, scientists tinkered deep and bold,
CRISPR therapy cut cancer chains — broke the mold. 
Genes rewrote the script of pain — hope birthed in tiny cells,
Life’s fight grows stronger still — in clinics, rings the bells.
Meanwhile on Mars-bound ships, Blue and Gold set sail,
Human dreams among the stars — new horizons, new trail. 
Spaceships hum, rockets roar, humankind reaches out,
Week 49 — we reach for sky, no whisper left in doubt.
In Brazil’s Belém they sat at climate’s urgent table,
Pledges made, funds promised — Earth’s future they enable. 
Communities joining hands, saying “we must protect, restore,”
Hope planted deep in soil — for seas, forests, and more.

[CHORUS]

deep-sea / plea / tree / free
jaguar / roar / floor / more
cells heal / feel / real / steel
rocket / socket / sky / high
roots / shoots / land / stand
vote green / clean / mean / scene
stars gleam / dream / stream / clean
hope rise / skies / wise / eyes

Turn the page, light the flame, let hope stay alive,
Week 49 — we lift, we thrive, we drive.
Good news rising, like the morning tide,
Hold the good, share the love — global good vibes.

Artists and poets in distant towns found new voice,
Stories of identity, compassion — community rejoice.
From small pens, big heartbreak turned into hope and art,
Week 49 reminds — every human story plays a part.
Rooftop panels spinning light, clean watts for families near,
Solar smiles over suburbs, power drawn from sun not fear. 
Children sleeping warm, homes alive, futures bright and clear,
Green energy rising high — turning dark nights into cheer.
From labs to lands, from seas to skies — the world breathes again,
Not perfect, not finished, but pushing forward through strain.
We ride the wave of little wins, each one a spark of gold,
Week 49 — this rap’s a toast to those quietly bold.

[CHORUS]

Keep your eyes on gentle turns, on quiet good and calm,
Not every headline screams fear — some whisper hope like a psalm.
Good vibes worldwide, hearts open, hands joined,
We move through shadows, together — future conjoined.

The lyrics of this week:
week 50 on the calendar — lights are gleaming,
Cities fill with joy already — carolers dreaming.
From theme parks decked in garlands to ancient wonders rediscovered,
We ride good stories, not the gloom — uplifting, recovered.

[CHORUS]
Feel the holiday spirit in the streets tonight,
Warm lights glowing, hearts feeling right.
Good news spinning, joy in flow,
week 50 — let the Christmas spirit grow.
Snow or sunshine, sleigh bell chime,
All around the world — this festive time.
Share the laughter, spread the cheer,
week 50 — the best vibes of the year!

Over at Disney World the lights are dancing on the palm trees,
Festive feasts and popcorn smells, the merriest memories. 
Snow-like magic on the parade floats rolling to and fro,
November’s turning into Christmas cheers before the first snow. 
Broadway calls with festive shows lighting up New York nights,
Families line up for musicals, hearts soaring high in lights. 
Orlando’s free holiday events — songs and lights for everyone,
Tree displays and carol bands under the December sun. 

[CHORUS]
Feel the holiday spirit in the streets tonight...

The Late Late Toy Show blasted off, the 50th year delight,
Audiences worldwide tuned in — Irish joy in sight. 
Kids and grown-ups cozy up — astronauts and Grinch in play,
Audio support for all to hear, inclusive fun today. 
Christmas Jumper Day’s approaching — wear your knit with pride,
Raise funds, share love across the globe — let kindness be your guide. 
The holidays are warming hearts from Orlando to London streets,
Good deeds, smiles, charity marches — together everyone meets. 

[CHORUS]
Feel the holiday spirit in the streets tonight...

lights / nights / bright / sight
snow / glow / show / flow
gifts / lifts / cheers / years
songs / throngs / bells / swells
hope / scope / peace / release
tree / glee / you / me
warmth / hearth / joy / birth
love / dove / above / us

And while we deck the halls and trim the tree with care,
Communities are raising funds for those in need out there. 
Save the Children’s Christmas jumpers warming more than hearts,
Every colourful stitch supports a world where hope restarts. 
As planet Earth spins to the rhythm of the festive beat,
People prepping feasts and carols in every town and street. 
From gaming drops that light our leisure with cosy fun ahead,
To births, birthdays, birthdays of stars — joy widespread. 

[CHORUS]
Feel the holiday spirit in the streets tonight...

week 50’s a gentle wave — glide with peace and cheer,
Stories of good, not bad, reflections we hold dear.
From theme parks to Broadway, from jumpers to holiday nights,
Live the light — because good vibes cut through darkest plights.

The lyrics of this week:
Yeah…
Week 51, calendar thinning out,
Lights stay longer, thoughts get loud.
One foot in the now, one in what’s next,
End-of-year breath — let the rhythm reflect.

Week 51 moves quiet but strong,
No big alarms, just a steady hum.
People wrapping gifts and wrapping years,
Folding lessons into laughter and tears.
Cafés glow with foggy glass,
Old friends texting “we should meet at last.”
Playlists switch to softer keys,
Soul slows down with the winter breeze.
Some dreams landed, some stayed parked,
Some needed darkness just to spark.
Not everything made headlines loud,
But growth don’t need a cheering crowd.

We almost home, yeah we almost there,
Past the noise, past the scare.
Count the wins, let go the weight,
Week 51 — feelin’ great.
Snow in the air, plans in the phone,
Heart feels warm though the nights feel long.
If the year was a road we’ve already grown,
One more step — yeah we almost home.

End-of-year emails say “circle back,”
But the real work’s internal — facts.
Who did you love, who did you keep?
What did you heal, what still sleeps?
Streets lit gold with early night,
Cities hum in December light.
Everybody tired but nobody done,
Still chasing warmth like a setting sun.
Quiet courage, unnoticed grace,
Small kind acts time didn’t erase.
Week 51 ain’t about the climb,
It’s about reading the signs on the timeline.

We almost home, yeah we almost there,
Past the noise, past the scare.
Count the wins, let go the weight,
Week 51 — feelin’ great.
Snow in the air, plans in the phone,
Heart feels warm though the nights feel long.
If the year was a road we’ve already grown,
One more step — yeah we almost home.

slow steps / cold breath /
deep thoughts / no stress /
last stretch / clear lens /
loose ends / new sense /
heart warm / coat thin /
old year / folding in /
night train / soft bass /
right pace / my space

We learned some truths the hard way,
Lost a few illusions on the way.
But we still here, still standing tall,
Still laughing at nothing, still answering calls.
There’s beauty in the almost-done,
In the quiet before the next begun.
Not every chapter needs a close,
Some just fade out soft — and that’s dope.
Week 51 got that exhale feel,
Like “yeah… okay… this was real.”
No rush now, let the moment roam,
Next stop coming — but we almost home.

We almost home, don’t blink yet,
Still some magic we ain’t met.
Hold the joy, release the stone,
Week 51 — we almost home.
Lights stay low, hearts stay on,
Carry the good, leave the wrong.
If the year was a road we’ve already grown,
One more breath — yeah we almost home.

Week 51 fades soft, no rush, no fear,
Just gratitude humming at the end of the year.
See you next week, new chapter, new tone —
Until then… yeah — we almost home.

NewsHop - week 51 of 2025

That's it for 2025 :)

- - - all related articles can be found below the lyrics - - -

The lyrics of this week:
What a year, yeah — what a ride,
Blink once, the world switched sides.
Good, bad, wild, sincere,
2025 — what a year.

January kicked the door in — flights grounded, bolts went missing,
Headlines screamed “loose parts,” pilots praying, Twitter hissing.
February crowned the bots — AIs running helplines, schools, and halls,
Teachers asking ChatGPT why kids ignore the calls.
March brought monkeys stealing snacks on livestream in plain sight,
Tourists filming chaos while the troop escaped by night.
Politics blamed the weather, weather blamed the state,
First quarter set the tone — confused, loud, and slightly late.

[CHORUS]
What a year, yeah — what a ride,
Blink once, the world switched sides.
Laugh, panic, dance, repeat,
Twelve months wrapped in a broken beat.
From January shock to December cheer,
Somehow we made it — still standing here.
Good, bad, wild, sincere,
2025 — what a year.

April fooled nobody — floods and heatwaves shook the frame,
“Once in a lifetime” storms now coming twice a day.
May went full circus — billionaires racing rockets for clout,
While the rest of us just hoped Wi-Fi wouldn’t drop out.
June hit peak surreal — cruise ships stuck like art displays,
Tourists waving from balconies, ports closed for days.
Sports fans cheered VAR replays longer than the game,
Second quarter spun absurd — reality’s a meme.

[CHORUS]

July sweated records — oceans warmer than the tea,
August chased aliens hiding behind the Sun we couldn’t see.
Comet rumors spiraled — spacecraft or cosmic dust?
Scientists said “probably rock,” but TikTok screamed “trust us.”
September lost its brakes — trains stopped, strikes on repeat,
World leaders meeting while protesters filled the streets.
Pop stars sued their past selves, re-recorded history,
Third quarter felt like sci-fi mixed with group therapy.

[CHORUS]

October dressed in shadows — clowns, ghosts, and drone-lit skies,
Halloween went global, fear mixed up with likes.
November slowed the tempo — year-end thoughts hit deep,
Quiet wins, tired hearts, promises to keep.
December wrapped it softly — lights, markets, fires warm,
People counting blessings while scrolling through the storm.
Somehow through the madness, we laughed and carried on,
Fourth quarter whispered gently: “You made it — year is done.”

[FINAL CHORUS]
What a year — don’t blink now,
Still standing somehow.
Twelve months of noise and cheer,
We survived 2025 right here.
From chaos to calm, from fear to flame,
Nothing stayed normal, nothing the same.
Laugh it off, raise a cheer,
2025 — what a year. 

2025 was crazy — no doubt about that,
From headlines to punchlines, from panic to laughs.
Now we turn the page, new stories appear,
2026 loading…
We’ll keep you updated.

The lyrics of this week:
Fireworks barely faded, calendars still clean,
But the world hit fast-forward — you know what I mean.
New year, new hopes, same strange scene,
Week one of twenty-six already breaking the screen.

Venezuela lit up headlines before the confetti fell,
Protests still breathing under government spells.
Currency juggling, borders tense,
People chanting hope in present tense.
Promises recycled, streets still loud,
Power stays high while patience bowed.
Year just started, same old fight,
New calendar page, but a familiar night.

[CHORUS]
It just started — and it’s crazy as ever,
Fresh page, same storms, different weather.
Champagne dreams, but reality’s loud,
Week one said “relax?” — nah, not allowed.
New year glow with a side of fear,
Seven days in and the plot’s unclear.
Blink twice, don’t spill your drink,
It’s only week one — what did you think?

Silver spiked in China — markets shook awake,
Investors chasing metal like the ground might break.
Shops packed tight, prices in flight,
Old-school value shining new-year bright.
But when crowds gathered New Year’s Eve,
Forbidden assembly — told to leave.
No countdown chants, no public cheer,
Fireworks muted by control and fear.

Seven days in and the contrast clear:
Money goes loud, people disappear.

[CHORUS]
It just started — and it’s crazy as ever...

Flights delayed, servers crashed,
“Happy New Year” texts sent late by lag.
Weather flipped scripts in half the zones,
Summer in shorts, winter in phones.
Politicians promised “fresh starts” again,
Same phrases copy-pasted in pen.
Influencers posted “new year, new me,”
While reposting last year’s strategy.

Week one said “buckle up, no grace,”
The year sprinted out of the starting gate.

[CHORUS]
It just started — and it’s crazy as ever...

New year… same speed…
Hope still here, but chaos leads.
Breath in… laugh it out…
If this is day seven — imagine now.

[CHORUS]
It just started — and it’s crazy as ever...

It just started — and it’s crazy as ever,
Fresh start energy held together with tether.
We toast to peace but scroll through storms,
Week one already bending norms.
New year, new spin, same wild ride,
We keep our balance, don’t pick a side.
Seven days deep and the signal’s clear:
2026 said “strap in, dear.”

Week one done — no warm-up lap,
The year kicked off with a world-scale snap.
If this is the opening scene we’re in,
Stay tuned…
We’ll keep you posted — this just began.

NewsHop - week 01 of 2026

Hi there,

Great that you came across my music on SoundCloud - thank you for your visit - I hope you will enjoy the ride!

Interested in working together, like to use my music for your project, or want to book me as artist / DJ? Please feel free to contact me.

About me:

AI M APED !
(ai music artist producer entertainer dj)

I was born and raised in a small village and made my own music since being able to make any kind of sound :)

I actively played the piano from 6 to 16 years of age.
Did set up my own Highschool grunge band in between (singer and bass), which ended quite literally during the last days of school :p

Bought myself a Yamaha DJX synth and made some electronic music.
Took a 'let's go work' break and went back to the synth around 2010 (scroll down in my tracks to the very bottom, to get a taste of me actual playing keys and arranging real played electronic music).

... and now - going with the time, while calling myself a pioneer in enjoyable, professional produced AI music. 
Most lyrics are my own and also the music isn't just a click (takes about 20-30 songs (often even more), before being able to start work on one final piece of music with editing and mastering).

Last but not least: 
Enjoy my music, like what you like and please subscribe to my channel for more love in this place.

Peace, yours
Benjo80
