Tags:Authentic African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) vocal delivery. Use a laid-back,conversational flow with rhythmic cadence. The mood should be confident and soulful.
Lyrics & Vocals: The lyrics and vocal performance must reflect key features of AAVE grammar and pronunciation. For example: use of habitual "be" (e.g.,"he be working"),zero copula (e.g.,"she Ø real cool"),monophthongization (e.g.,"ah" for "I"),and vocabulary like "finna," "cap," or "drip". The voice should be natural,not robotic.
Instrumental: Smooth synth melody,deep 808 bass,crisp hi-hats,and a slow-burning groove around 100-110 BPM. Add subtle vocal samples or ad-libs.
We should go down, yeah, all the way down, Down where the wine keeps goin’ round. [gritty phrasing, no sweetness] Under the ocean, drunk or dry — Baby, nobody tells the difference down there anyway. [intimate but grounded, teasing authority] Raise that anchor, take your place, Hold that line — steady pace. [dirty swing, mocking edge] We’ll bring the sea-devil a barrel of rum, Trust me, honey — he don’t say no to none. Hey, sailor… YOU! No— YOU. Stayed. Away. Too. Damn. Long. I had more than enough time to forget about you. Yeah, we should go down, all the way down, Down where the wine don’t ask around. [teeth in the words] Under the ocean, wrong or right — Baby, nobody’s clean on that kind of night. You thought I’d wait, you thought I’d stay, Like some damn port you sail away. [snarling edge] But tides don’t freeze and women don’t either, I learned that fast — got wiser. Hey, sailor… YOU! I don’t miss you. I outgrew you. [full power, no flirt, pure command] I got a taste for the sea-born devil, Not your prayers, not your metal. [slow, crushing delivery] You stayed away — that was your choice. Now listen close to my voice. I don’t wait. I don’t beg. I choose… Not you — the one who left.
