GONE AGAIN is the second mixtape from R. Flex. This mixtape features the production of three #LDNONT producers: @duey, @ZacharyGray, & @Nosebleed. The other producers on this mixtape are @MVNTRA, @ParaPalabras, and youtube DJ t.u.remix. Each of these producers offer a different sound that inspire a different narrative in each song. The production and narrative work together to create a feeling of absence or, rather, hauntology. The presence of other artists and past experiences simultaneously inhabit these songs in ways that will structure feelings lived and re-lived. This mixtape is an invitation to interrogate past experiences, present influences, and future happenings in a work destabilized by emotion. This, my friends, is the haunt effect of #GONEAGAIN.

lyrics

boy meets girl, they travel the world
they wanna stay together and be free as a bird 
the only thing stopping 'em is a piece of paper
can't cross borders without visa status

the boy was a traveller, most of his life
and he couldn't sit still in a box, so trite
since his family took him around at all costs
the map in his head much bigger than most
something you can't share in a class, of course
he had to find a nest for himself and earn a source
of income that helped him to stay nomadic 
a gypsy if you will the norm is dramatic
no shortage of romantic tales to tell
at a fireplace reminiscin' goin' through hell
and back just to find his own paradise
maybe a paradox but oh well, worth the fight
'cause he found a mate in a girl opposite of him
she only knew of cities illustrated in film
the two became an item and talked about places
he swore to show her 'round to a hundred faces
back pack, duffle bag, instead of suitcases
bought tix for amazing races
snapback, straw hat, shoes without laces
took flicks, breathtaking spaces
so the couple made stacks of albums
and wanted to continue so the natural outcome
would be to live together but now how come
they need to get papers for a country to allow them

(chorus)

y'all already know how the story goes
wake up from a dream better set some goals
although, they had to choose their separate ways
with a promise to reunite the couple spent days
workin’ and at nightshifts, staying in touch
missed each other much like a limp without a crutch
the girl shy, but blossomed like a butterfly
out of a cocoon, her talents multiplied
language was a barrier, only for a brief
moment 'cause she knew a superior belief, yo
a new way to live life to the fullest
the color of a sunny sky is the truest
everything is a canvas, a media
mixed on untamed walls, graffiti art
whatever she could get her hands on turned to gold
whenever she envisioned rocked letters in bold
one day she bought a ticket out the pocket
hopped on a plane with an empty closet
but when she finally landed, cruelty
the immigration officer started to grill her
for not memorizing a fixed address,
or the itinerary of the flight back
“yes, but my ride's waiting at the gate”
but the flag was raised so she was whisked away,
you say

(chorus)

the officer took her passport, found nothing wrong
but the intense questioning went on and on
“you're not a native, so why are you here,
how do you make a living, and who are your peers?
so you have a partner huh, what does he do?
oh now you shed a tear, well what does that prove?
you're clearly agitated, must be hiding something”
that's when the girl looked up and started snapping
“is there a manual, for the things you ask
out of thousands of foreigners who might pass
you might indeed catch a real criminal or two
but you interrogate innocent people too,
and you truly wanna know, the reason I'm crying
my god you make it sound like, love is a crime
and if so, call me guilty for wanting to be
with the one and only that could ever satisfy me”
his expression didn't change at all,
as the breaker to his heart remained closed at best
but what he did next spoke louder than his previous words
he let the poor girl leave the tedious
environment, free to walk out to the real world
in a town where everyone's still worried
how to live a life, fifteen minutes up,
vicariously through your own lens, ‘sup

(chorus)

 

VISA（対訳）

男の子と女の子が出会い、世界を旅した
二人は一緒に居たかった、鳥のように自由に
彼らを止めるものは一枚の紙切れ
国境を越えるにはビザのステータスがいるから

男の子は旅人だった、人生の殆ど
箱の中に閉じ込められるのはたまらない
子供の頃、家族が連れ回ってくれたおかげで
彼の頭の中の地図は人に比べてずっと広かった
簡単にクラスで見せれるものじゃないけど、
彼は自分の居場所と仕事を見つける必要があった
ずっと放浪できるために
ジプシーのような、ドラマが日常で
ロマンティックな話も尽きない
暖炉の前、地獄へ行って帰って来た話
そして自分の天国に辿り着いた
矛盾かもしれないけれど、その価値はあった
何故なら、彼は自分の正反対の相手を見つけた
彼女は映画の中の街しかしらなかった
二人は付き合って色々な場所について話した
彼は沢山の顔に紹介すると誓った
バックパック、ダッフルバッグ、スーツケースの代わり
素晴らしい冒険のチケットを買って
スナップバック、麦わら、紐のない靴
息を呑む場所で写真を撮り
カップルで何冊もアルバムを作った
彼らは続けたかった、だから自然と
一緒に住みたかったけれど、なぜ
書類を揃えなければ国が許してくれない

(chorus)

皆、聞いたことあるようなお話
夢から覚めて目標を立てなければ
でも彼らは別々の道を歩んでも
また会う約束のために日中は働き
夜勤をしながら、連絡を取り合った
お互いの松葉杖のように恋しかった
彼女は内気だったが蝶のように変化した
繭から出て、才能が開花した
言語の壁は、ほんの僅かで
もっと崇高な信念があったから
人生を謳歌する生き方
晴れた日の空が最高の色
全てがキャンバスで、メディアはミクスト
裸の壁にグラフィティ
彼女が触れたものは金色に光り
彼女がイメージすると太い文字を描いた
ある日、自腹でチケットを買って
クロゼットを空にして飛行機に飛び乗った
でもようやく着陸したら、残酷な状況
入国審査官はきつく迫った
泊まる住所や、帰国の詳細を暗記してなかったこと
「はい、でもゲートの外で待っているんです」
でも怪しまれて、彼女は連れて行かれてしまった
そう

(chorus)

審査官はパスポートを取り上げて
何も悪いことは見つけなかったが、
厳しい取り調べは続いた
「君はここの人じゃないのに、何故来たんだ？
どうやって生活してるんだ、仲間はどこだ？
パートナーがいるなら、彼は何をしてるんだ？
ほう、涙を流すくらいなら、何があるんだ？
動揺しているなら、何かを隠してるんだろう」
その時、彼女は顔を上げて、キレ始めた
「あなたの質問にはマニュアルがあるんですか？
毎日、何千人もの人がここを通り抜けて
一人や二人、犯罪者がいるかもしれない
でもあなたは無実な人たちも尋問しているんです
私が泣いている理由を知りたい？
あなたは愛が犯罪のように決めつけるから
それなら、私は有罪です
私を満たしてくれる唯一の人と一緒になりたいから」
彼の表情は一切変わらなかった
心臓のブレーカーは閉じたまま
しかし彼の次の行動はそれまでの言葉を覆した
彼女を窮屈な部屋から自由にして
外の現実に解き放した
街中、心配を抱えている人々
どうやって生き残って行けるかと
自分のレンズを通して見つめるんだ

(chorus)

I Want You

Bad times abound when a lov_r
contemplates their r_lationsh_p
while fe_ling left at bay.

Check out "The Bay"
from my upcoming mixtape 
G_NE AG_IN.
Written by R. Flex. 
Produced by Para Palabras.
Mixed @ Positive Journey Mixing Lounge.

[Verse 1]
Sent a message late last night,
but you're not answering 
any of my questions 
could it be you're handling
another issue; I just wish you
help me figure out
when you're gonna come around? 
Cause I can't help, but think 
the way you left was so urgent
like you heard a calling 
and you had to answer it. 
Somewhere in the distance
someone needs you more than me,
but remember me. Bae, please
remember me? 

[Pre-Hook]
Bae
Please remember me

[Hook]
Remember my face; remember that. 
Remember my name; remember that. 
Remember these lips; remember that. 
Remember this kiss; remember that. 
Remember your head hit the bed
and you said when with me, 
you couldn't go back. 
That's what you said 
That's what you said

My bae, please call me. Hit me back. 
Got what you need. Remember that. 
No make belief; it's a fact. 
You were calling me. Remember that. 
Remember your head hit the bed
and you said when with me
you couldn't go back. 
That's what you said.
That's what you said. 

[Bridge]
I'm reminiscing.
Are you reminiscing? 
Well if you're not...

[Hook]
Remember my face; remember that. 
Remember my name; remember that. 
Remember these lips; remember that. 
Remember this kiss; remember that. 
Remember your head hit the bed
and you said when with me, 
you couldn't go back. 
That's what you said 
That's what you said

My bae, please call me. Hit me back. 
Got what you need. Remember that. 
No make belief; it's a fact. 
You were calling me. Remember that. 
Remember your head hit the bed
and you said when with me
you couldn't go back. 
That's what you said.
That's what you said.

Gone Again

The Bay

Ever since I was a kid, I've loved Bobby Caldwell's "What You Won't Do For Love". I know I'm not alone. The song has been sampled by TuPac, interpolated by Aaliyah, and covered by Jessie Ware. Wanting to continue in the tradition of expanding the classics, I decided to flex out my own rendition of the song that's proven itself useful for multiple aesthetics. 

In this sense, I invite you to be both warmed and haunted by the spirit of Bobby Caldwell one more time. This is the R. Flex rendition of "What You Won't Do For Love".

Written by Bobby Caldwell with Alfons Kettner
Interpolations of Aaliyah's "Age Ain't Nothin' But A Number" and Tatyana Ali's "Boy You Knock Me Out"
Production by DJ t.u. remix

Lyrics:

I guess you wonder where I've been 
I searched to find a love within 
I came back to let you know 
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

My friends wonder what is wrong with me 
Well I´m in a daze from your love, you see 
I came back to let you know 
Got a thing for you and I can´t let go

Some people go around the world for love 
But they may never find what they dream of 

What you won´t do, do for love 
You've tried everything but you don´t give up 
In my world only you make me do 
For love what I would not do

But then I only want the best it´s true 
They can´t believe the things I do for you 

What you won´t do, do for love 
You've tried everything but you don´t give up 
In my world, only you makes me do 
For love what I would not do 
Make me do for love what I would not do

Now see:
I don't mean to be bold,
but I gotta let you know
boy, you knock me out *2

What You Won't Do For Love

Imagine Aaliyah's "Rock the Boat", Jill Scott's "Crown Royal", and Rihanna's "James Joint" melting into each other. You'd arrive at 4:20AM: a chilled out meditation on the bliss of lighting one up. Relax and let 4:20AM burn into a simmering close. #GoneAgain

Hours drip slowly rowing time 
Feeling out a warm lake; lay in mine
Paddle to the left, row it to the right
and we can stroke.

Монатик-cаундтрек cегодняшнЕГО дня

2Pac - What You Won't Do For Love (feat. Schoovy Schmoov) (Original Version)

Meet cheeky R&B creator, R. Flex. They dare to change the shape of R&B, blending in electronic sounds and pop hooks. Channelling the impish spirit of Janet Jackson, Tinashe, and Kelela, they push the genre’s BPM to exciting places. Their commitment to storytelling through music and fashion explores intimacy, self-discovery, and identity. They challenge traditional narratives of love and self-love, creating safe spaces for queer joy and expression. As a Black non-binary transfemme, authenticity is at the core of their work. 

Their high-energy 2022 EP Flex With Benefits earned praise from Exclaim, Bandcamp, and The Star. Featuring collaborations with Tafari Anthony and Desiire, the EP explored queer desire and empowerment. Tracks like ‘Too Late,’ ‘4U,’ and ‘DNA’ earned global recognition, appearing on queer playlists in Amsterdam, Toronto, and New York. 

In their second EP of 2022, Once Upon A Flex, R. Flex slowed the BPM but heightened the vulnerability, garnering critical acclaim from Earmilk as a trailblazer. As one of the first artists to perform at Club Quarantine, their electrifying performances solidified them as an underground star in the making. They’ve opened for artists like Haiku Hands, Khalifa, and Shad with a flair that continues to make its mark. Distinct and forward-thinking, you have every reason to Check The Flex.
