Intro / Hook Layer
- Soul-filled piano riffs: Think dusty keys sampled from a forgotten gospel record, echoing like memories from a dream, Minor chords with a touch of melancholy, setting the mood for introspection, - Crackles of electricity: Sporadic zaps and static bursts—like neural misfires or surveillance glitches—punctuate the silence before the verse drops, 🥁 Verse Sections
- Grimey boom bap drums: Dirty kicks with vinyl hiss, snappy snares that slap like truth bombs, The rhythm is tight but raw, like a cipher in a basement, - 808 bass: Deep and distorted, rumbling like suppressed thoughts rising to the surface, It pulses beneath the bars, giving weight to every metaphor, - Electric sparks: As each verse kicks in, the beat fractures—sparks fly, like synapses firing under pressure, Then it settles back into the groove, like a mind reprogramming itself, Chorus Energy
- Layered vocals: Stacked harmonies with a haunting chant—““Controlled minds…”—echoing

Drums: Grit & Swing
- Kick: Thick, punchy, slightly muffled—think SP-1200 or MPC vibes, - Snare: Crisp with a vinyl crackle tail, Layer it with a rimshot for texture, - Hi-Hats: Lo-fi, swung, maybe even chopped from old jazz breaks, - Drum Loop: Use classic breaks like “Funky Drummer” or “Impeach the President, ” chopped and re-sequenced, > 🔥 Tip: Quantize loosely or shift snares slightly late for that Dilla-style groove, Intro: Start with a filtered sample loop and vinyl crackle, - Verse: Drop the full drums, keep the sample loop tight, - Hook: Bring in a second sample layer or vocal chop, - Bridge: Strip down to drums and bass, maybe a spoken word snippet, - Outro: Fade with the sample loop and ambient textures

verse: Start with dusty kick and snare—raw, punchy, and swung for urgency, Layer a minor-key piano loop (Rhodes or upright) with vinyl crackle for mood, Add a warm sub bass riding the kick, and sprinkle ambient vocal chops (“freedom, ” “why”) for emotional texture, Mid-verse, bring in low strings (cello stabs) and distant sirens or crowd noise to echo protest energy, Keep hi-hats loose and shuffled, with occasional open hats for tension, Structure it to build every 4 bars—drums first, then bass, then melodic layers, Before the chorus, strip it down to piano and FX for a breath of reflection, This beat should feel cinematic, urgent, and soulful—built to carry your message, Want help mapping it out in a DAW or MJ samples next

Gospel Power
- As the chorus rises, so does his intensity, He belts with raspy conviction, channeling gospel traditions—think spiritual protest, It’s protest through performance—his voice becomes the sound of the earth grieving, Background vocals echo
