about

I was given "flight" as a writing prompt for a songwriting conversation/performance back in May- I had written the tune the night before- my landlord heard me practicing in the garage and joined in to help me keep a beat and the results were pretty fire! I had to share

this tune is serving as a fundraiser for studio time and rent on my creative space - i'm itchin to record the final version of this bb

hope you dig

lyrics

A lil touch (the flight song)

I say
‘hey are you alright”
He said “baby it’s the drugs,
I think I wanna take flight
on a lil touch”

But I don’t think i’m qualified
No I don’t think i’m qualified
Plus i’m not feeling the high
No I don’t think i’m qualified

He said
“aye are you alright,
what you thinkin of?”
I say ‘i’m bout to take flight,
I think I need a hug”

But he don’t think he qualifies
No he don’t think he qualifies
Now he can't look me in the eyes
Yeah he don’t think he qualifies

Looks like we’re not flying anywhere
Looks like we’re not flying anywhere
Looks like we’re not flying anywhere
Looks like we’re not going anywhere

Black Encyclopedia of the Air

Some of the most interesting hiphop I've had to hear in years. In takes in all fields of music to create something rather unique. The mood of it is rather grim but not without hope. I'd recommend to listen to it fully in one go to get the best of it. Thibaut Devigne

Black Acid Soul

Gorgeous minimalist arrangements and one of the most beautiful and moving voices I've ever heard. Lady Blackbird brings a Monk-like ability to get right into your guts and start rooting around. brussb
