Don’t say anything 🤫

Me?

Drake sat alone in his dimly lit studio, surrounded by a sea of instruments and glowing screens. The room was filled with an air of anticipation, as if it held the promise of something extraordinary. He was on a quest to create a song that would encapsulate the essence of longing and passion.

As the rain drummed lightly against the windows, Drake found himself lost in thought, reminiscing about moments of intense desire in his own life. These memories, both sweet and painful, were the seeds of inspiration that would soon grow into…

With a sigh, he picked up his pen and began to write. The lyrics flowed from his heart, each line an echo of his own experiences and emotions. The words danced on the page, painting a vivid picture of love's complexities and the yearning that accompanies it.

"I need you inspired, I need you excited
I don't wanna fight it” he wrote, the ink flowing effortlessly. The vulnerability in those lines resonated deeply within him, a testament to the raw honesty he aimed to convey in his music.

As he continued to pour his soul onto the page, the studio's atmosphere began to shift. The air grew charged with electricity, as if the very room itself was pulsating with emotion. It was as though the walls were absorbing the essence of his words, infusing them with an ethereal energy.

Once the lyrics were complete, Drake knew it was time to bring the song to life. He stepped up to the microphone, his voice filled with a blend of anticipation and determination. The melody flowed from him, each note a reflection of the emotions he had bared on paper.

"You a real ass woman and I like it" he sang, his voice carrying a hauntingly tender quality. The words seemed to hang in the air, suspended in the moment, as if time itself had come to a standstill.

As the final notes faded away, there was a profound silence in the studio. It was a stillness that spoke volumes, a testament to the power of music to transcend mere words. Drake knew he had captured something extraordinary, a piece of his own soul woven into the fabric of the song.

In the days that followed, "Fire and Desire" took on a life of its own. It resonated with listeners around the world, touching their hearts with its poignant portrayal of love's complexities. The song became a testament to the enduring power of vulnerability in art, a reminder that true connection lies in our willingness to bare our souls.

And so, in that dimly lit studio, amidst the glow of screens and the echo of rain, Drake had forged a masterpiece. "Fire and Desire" was more than just a song; it was a testament to the enduring power of love, a beacon of light in the depths of human emotion.

same thread needed for tried our best

Thought 40 produced?

Gotcha, there’s the right one

Harley on the mix way back then? For some reason I thought he was newer

I think his first beat he produced was not around first half, but he’s been engineering for a while

Technically his first beats were for Baka in 2018 but his first beat after that was not around iirc
