0.6 - snapple

[edited 05/18/18]

"my bitch got a taste like snapple.. real cool, and her body so ample. she mad thick, make me wanna grab a handful..." i let the track play on loop, for probably the fifth time. i nipped at the tip of my thumb in thought, trying to decide how to tweak it best. 

my glasses rested low on my nose as i stared at the screen of my laptop. the beat was stable, the breakdown was good, the beat drop had a good build up... what was missing?

i took my earbuds out with a sigh and pushed my hair back. "bells? will you come listen to this please?" 

she looked up from her book and nodded, sashaying her way over to me. i unplugged my earbuds from the laptop and turned the volume up so she could listen it clearly. she reached over to the remote on our coffee table and muted the tv so we could hear better.

isabella sat in the chair next to me and pressed play. she closed her eyes, nodding along to the beat and tapping her fingers along with the flow. when it finished, she opened her eyes and nodded thoughtfully.

"i think the only thing missing is a little bit more bass. it seems too shallow for the lyrics and the vibe you've made."

i wiggled in my seat, looking at her with wide eyes. "you are a genius. thank you so much, bells."

she flipped her hair victoriously, "tell me something i don't know, honey."

i gave her a grateful half hug and went back to work on editing my songs. 

i had a multitude of songs and beats i had yet to finish, all stored away on my devices for later times, but the challenge from the boys had installed a fire in me that i couldn't seem to shake. today alone, i had finished 12 of my songs, a record amount for one day.

i hummed to myself, along with the track that i had appropriately named snapple and grinned. this one was probably my favourite of the 12 i finished. in order from favourite to least favourite, they went:

1) snapple - a hype rap track

2) dear diary - a ballad type

3) elite - a trap type

4) morning rain - an emotional type

5) cherry blossom - a pop song

6) ink - very sad

7) rose petals - a love song

8) foul play - high key sexual

9) nara - literally just a rap about shikamaru nara from naruto

10) burnin - edm

11) why? - a song about loss

12) game day - a song about rivalry

i let out a deep sigh and finally opened up the group chat. we had spent nearly the entire night talking about what they were open to and concepts they liked. eventually we even changed each others names to first-names, after the boys informed me that they hadn't changed theirs in literal years.

kiyoung: hello friends

seokjin: finished? how?

hoseok: we literally gave the challenge less than 18 hours ago
