Song: Believe

The message here is realizing your uniqueness and individuality which is your power in the world. The sound  and vibe was inspired by my choir background and love for traditional choral music.



Intro

You are wonderfully made
You are wonderfully made
You are beautifully made
You are wonderfully made


Verse 1

This life can be so hard, Robs you of all your humanity
Failure right from the start
You feel like you don't have anybody Remember


Pre hook

We are kings, We are warriors
We are we are we are
Strength of giants; it comes from within within
Keep on believing and achieving Hold on to destiny
Your day will come Like the rising sun, Just believe

You are wonderfully made
Trust in your day
Trust in your day
You are beautifully made
There will come a way
There will come a way

Post hook

All you have to do is ...
Believe, Believe, Believe, Believe


Verse 2

Whenever your feeling down Know that in you lies all that you need
Its all about timing. Persistence and patience; these are the keys

Song: Tales By Moonlight

Intro:

Doing it for the culture (ahhhh ahhhh) we are
Doing it for the culture


Verse 1

In the valley of the most expensive dolls, we ride together. Smoking cigarettes, posting selfies by the wall; Trolling ALARA. A leap of faith, achieving multiple delusional desires; 
Feel it in your veins. Money, notoriety … we reek of sweat disaster
Baby. I don’t know nobody else but you, I don’t know nobody else but you. I'm a fool
Your fake lifestyle this is my perfume, see us bloom into the doom.

Hook

I pledge my allegiance to amuse you. Tell all these lies, keep up appearances of me and you
Make believe opulence as my truth.
Lie to me and tell me you love me (I believe your tales by moonlight)
Deceive me completely (I believe your tales by moonlight)
Please will you buy a ticket to my wasted youth

Verse 2

In the isle of fame fluidity conformity, we rule as name droppers
Sip virgin daqaries, squad goal priorities, honesty is for losers
Glory in the fake and fictitious lies to swing past these ropes so velvet.
Humor in my pain. Live life on the edge. 
We don’t care were young so restless
Baby.(ohhahh) I don’t know nobody else but you, I don’t know nobody else but you. I'm a fool
Your fake lifestyle this is my perfume, see us bloom into the doom.

Hook

(ohhahh)
I pledge my allegiance to amuse you. Tell all these lies, keep up appearances of me and you
Make believe opulence as my truth.
Lie to me and tell me you love me (I believe your tales by moonlight)
Deceive me completely (I believe your tales by moonlight)
Please will you buy a ticket to my wasted youth

Bridge
Fake Jerry Lorrenzo with no fear of God (for the culture)
This Orange culture strut never odd (for the culture)
Alia, ferragamo … its really not ours though
Dior is not for the poor … J’dore

Hook

outro:

Its for the for the
Doing it for the culture (ahhhh ahhhh)
Doing it for the culture.

"Tales by Moonlight" is a tale of two people finding love in falsehood. They both know what they're in for and so throw caution to the wind to embark on this journey were the inevitable is crashing and burning. they take "faking it till you make it" to boundless limits because of a need to be adored and talked about. its the incessant chase for notoriety.
I'm a huge fan of Lana Del Rey and Sadcore so I thought it would be fitting to write a song that captured that essence plus lyrics that deals with the concept of "Packaging" and living a fake life.
Produced by the talented MonLee.

Tales by Moonlight

I got the idea for the song sitting by myself, in a crowded house party. 2019 was a year of introspection so i wanted everything i wrote to expressly detail what i was feeling or realizing about myself and i got to find out i'm basically a hermit. i enjoy my own company and it can have its perks but i'm quick to also mention that it has its pitfalls. 
I feel like a lot of us feel like this sometimes or even more than usual and at times its ok to want your space and get to know who you really are. Other times its a death trap so the best way to manage it (I've found) is coming out of your shell every time and again and finding a balance ... your frequency.
Featuring Jon was something i wanted to do for a while but i needed the right track and this seamed like the one. Collaborating with him was easy and fun as we bounced ideas off of each other.

Anti-Social (feat. Jon Ogah)

retro 80's vibe to lift your spirits. Plus an interlude for my best mate

It's a post disco feminist anthem. Describing and celebrating the power of the female gender. Inspired by the women in my life. Their struggles and power. I wrote this song for women allover the world to feel good and dance to. To know that they are worth it 1000%.

God (feat. Raldie Young)

I usually don't do covers that much but ever since I heard this song for the first time, i couldn't stop listening. it's a collision of great penmanship and exquisite vocal stylings from the uber talented singers @jazminesullivan and @hermusicofficial off of what is already the best R&B project of 2021. 
Heres my take on this beautiful song, with additional production from @raldieyoung
