POD Reflection Journal 5
Song 3 - Fallout
R&B
For this its mostly just me working on the final 2 songs of my POD. That being the R&B and the 70s Funk. For the R&B song I wanted to talk about a couple that is in the middle of fighting but both of them are too stubborn to make up again so this takes the perspective of the male.

Creative and technical processes:
It's mostly me just drowning myself in a room listening to R&B songs and it occurs to me majority of them always talk about fallouts so I decided to write something like that. I'm breaking down other songs to see what makes them the way it is and trying to get whatever elements I can find that makes up the R&B genre. But in order to avoid sounding like a cheap imitation I try to implement things of my style like the acoustic guitar and the rhythm of my lyrics.
Challenges and solutions:
The greatest challenge is mostly just trying to get familiar with the genre. and for trying to find solutions for them is me just researching and indulging myself in the genre in order to achieve what I did.
Discoveries and things I learnt:
I learnt that after getting the main elements of something, it becomes very very easy to start arranging at that point and all of a sudden things just naturally start coming together over time.

Lyrics:
Now im waking up
Not a minute goes by where Im not thinking of you
When the hell do we stop?
Im tired pretending I dont care when I do
Ooo yeah
what do i do?
Oh yeah
Cause I dont know that much about loving
But just know that im always there
I know you stay awake crying
And im dying just to show you I care
So baby can we start loving
