Vibes web3 music competition week #16, it's @paulzeks here. Hope y’all are doing well? It is always a pleasure to be on here.

This week, I'm covering a mashup by Nigerian singer-songwriters Burna Boy and Adekunle Gold: 'On the Low' and 'Sinner.' Since the theme is 'Roots,' I decided to take it back to the days when I used to learn how to produce and compose R&B music. As a producer, I’ve always wondered how an Afro song would sound when slowed down to get that R&B vibe. On this track, I achieved that by combining different sound elements to bring out the beauty of the cover. From the strings, snaps, triangle, smooth synth, synth bass, and more, I crafted a unique sound.

I also invited the amazing talent Antwon to cover the song with me and bring it to life. This mashup blends the rhythm and chords of both songs seamlessly. "On the Low" and "Sinner" are both feel-good love songs—one expresses the singer’s desire to sustain and protect the love, while the other is drawn to the love and cannot stay away from it. Enjoy!

VOCALS
Oh mi o da oh
Anytime wey I see you for the club, I dey television your body
Shey you no know say the thing wey you carry fit kill somebody
You know I feel a vibe, you feel a vibe, so baby whine it pon me
Yeah, and I know you shy but it's cool when we're making love
On the low
On the low
On the low
On the low
On the low
On the low
On the low
On the low

Loving you be my greatest sin
Said I was done but see I'm here
You don't make it easy rara
To stay away from yawa
Sheba o, Sheba
Girl, you make me a sinner
Sheba o, Sheba
Don't make me pull the trigger
Never say never
Know I can do whatever
For Sheba oh, be mine
Don't wanna be a sore loser, no

Hello Hive Open Mic Community, it’s week #122 and I’m happy to share my entry this week. I’ll be performing a song by Ne-Yo called so sick, we all know that Ne-Yo is a phenomenon song writer.

On this track, every song Ne-Yo hears reminds him of his lost love; it's a love song about being tired of love songs. It's also an autobiographical tale of love gone wrong. "It's about the first time I fell in love with a girl in a way that I completely screwed it up. So it was a story that I didn't have to think really hard about putting it together," Ne-Yo told Billboard magazine. "A lot of heartbreak went into that song, so that's why I think a lot of people dug it the way they did - because you can feel it."

Lots of Emotion in one song, hope y’all enjoy listening to this half as much as we(@paulzeks X @sleemfit) enjoyed playing/singing it for you.

LYRICS

"So SicK"

Mm, mm, yeah

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do-do

Ooh, yeah

Gotta change my answering machine

Now that I'm alone

'Cause right now it says that we

Can't come to the phone

And I know it makes no sense

'Cause you walked out the door

But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore

(It's ridiculous)

It's been months

And for some reason I just (Can't get over us)

And I'm stronger than this, yeah (Enough is enough)

No more walking 'round with my head down (Yeah)

I'm so over being blue

Cryin' over you

And I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears

So done with wishin' you were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow

So why can't I turn off the radio?

Gotta fix that calendar I have

That's marked July 15th

Because since there's no more you

There's no more anniversary

I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you

And your memory

And how every song reminds me of what used to be

That's the reason

I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears

So done with wishin' you were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow

So why can't I turn off the radio?

(Oh, leave me alone) Leave me alone

(Stupid love songs) Oh-oh, hey

Don't make me think about her smile

Or having my first child

I'm letting go

Turning off the radio

'Cause I'm so sick of love songs (Hey), so tired of tears (So tired of tears)

So done with wishin' she were still here (Oh)

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (Ooh, oh)

So why can't I turn off the radio? (Why can't I turn off the radio?)

And I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears (So tired of tears)

So done with wishing she were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (Hey)

Why can't I turn off the radio? (Why can't I turn off the radio?)

And I'm so sick of love songs (So sick of love songs)

So tired of tears (And I'm so sick, so sick of love song)

So done with wishing you were still here

(And I'm so sick, so sick of love songs)

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (Hey)

So why can't I turn off the radio?

Why can't I turn off the radio?

Why can't I turn off the radio?

Hive open mic community, here’s my cover of a classic hit song by Tupac Shakur titled Changes. In line with the week’s theme “Prejudice”

This song is about the racial issues on the streets, and how everyone knows that it will never change; there will always be poverty and homeless people and violence on the streets, "Some things will never change."

I personally feel the song (Changes) have a unique sound and a perfect message that express over things that matters to everyday life.

Also, I want to use this opportunity

To appreciate the love and warm reception y’all showed me just on my introductory post, Thank you!

I hope you guys enjoy my entry.

VOCALS

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

LYRICS

I see no changes, wake up in the morning and I ask myself:

"Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?"

I'm tired of being poor and, even worse, I'm black

My stomach hurts so I'm looking for a purse to snatch

Cops give a damn about a negro

Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero

"Give the crack to the kids: who the hell cares?

One less hungry mouth on the welfare!"

First ship 'em dope and let 'em deal to brothers

Give 'em guns, step back, watch 'em kill each other

"It's time to fight back," that's what Huey said

Two shots in the dark, now Huey's dead

I got love for my brother

But we can never go nowhere unless we share with each other

We gotta start making changes

Learn to see me as a brother instead of two distant strangers

And that's how it's supposed to be

How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?

I'd love to go back to when we played as kids

But things change... and that's the way it is

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

I see no changes, all I see is racist faces

Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races

We under, I wonder what it takes to make this

One better place, let's erase the wasted

Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right

'Cause both Black and White are smoking crack tonight

And the only time we chill is when we kill each other

It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other

And although it seems heaven-sent

We ain't ready to see a black president

It ain't a secret, don't conceal the fact:

The penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks

But some things will never change

Try to show another way, but you staying in the dope game

Now tell me, what's a mother to do?

Being real don't appeal to the brother in you

You gotta operate the easy way

"I made a G today," but you made it in a sleazy way

Selling crack to the kids

"I gotta get paid!", well hey, but that's the way it is

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

We gotta make a change

It's time for us as a people to start making some changes

Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live

And let's change the way we treat each other

You see the old way wasn't working

So it's on us to do what we gotta do to survive

And still I see no changes

Can't a brother get a little peace?

It's war on the streets and a war in the Middle East

Instead of war on poverty

They got a war on drugs so the police can bother me

And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do

But now I'm back with the facts giving it back to you

Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up

Crack you up and pimp-smack you up

You gotta learn to hold your own

They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone

But tell the cops they can't touch this

I don't trust this, when they try to rush I bust this

That's the sound of my tool

You say it ain't cool, my mama didn't raise no fool

And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped

And I never get to lay back

'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the payback

Some buck that I roughed up way back

Coming back after all these years

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat!" That's the way it is

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

(You're my brother, you're my sister)

That's just the way it is

Things'll never be the same

That's just the way it is

Aww yeah

Some things'll never change
