A lot of today’s RnB artists don’t know how to sample correctly. But, this sample of Goapele’s “Closer” was IT! she did this so smoothly and kept alllll the vibes and made it relevant to today. more of this in music 😫!!

I’ll stop bringing it up Hoping we can be better for us Us Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, babe) (Yeah, uh) When I’m tricky, get rid of all the bitterness and issues You don’t believe me (Believe me, yeah) Ain’t your responsibility to make me happy But you damn sure don’t make it easy (Easy on me) Sometimes you feel like [a wound?] from mistakes, but I don’t judge (I don’t judge you, baby) I just need to know that it’s always been different with us (Us, us) Always in lust I get worried, can’t trust you, baby I invested too much I been healing, don’t rush it, babe Can we make up For all the times we weren’t touching, baby? I’ll stop bringing it up Hoping we can be better for us Ooh-ooh Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, baby) I’ll stop bringing it up If you love me, if you’re in love Oh, I deserve that, I wanna love Yeah, I deserve that kinda love I know things get better with time Don’t matter if we don’t stop drawing the line I just need you to come closer to me, babe (Babe) Yeah, closer to me, babe, yeah Feel you touch me, oh, [?], oh Hey byw I'm a singer/songwriter inspired by Lauv/Lany/Jeremy Zucker.

[@blackcosmos]

HER musical influence is super eclectic ✨

[@One-Of-NONE]

Feeling so depressed & down around the holidays. HER has helped me realize my worth, & believe me, it has been HARD! Who would’ve ever thought putting yourself first & knowing your worth would b so hard. But by the grace of God I will overcome all these emotions. They do not define me. Just going thru the motions. Sidenote: Heavy on the “I deserve that kind of love” because, yes I do! We all do! Remember what’s meant for us will always b for us! Beautifully done HER.. thank you! Love & light to you all. 💙✨
