The singers on my TL don't flex enough for me and it's starting to upset me and the ancestors. Me and the ancestors wanna know why you aren't harvesting your voice, like you will harvest an herb for an oil.
The ancestors also said that when they prayed to God that their voices would be amplified, He taught them how to sing. That was the fire given to Prometheus. The one fire nobody can put out and yet...
The ancestors also said that your voice would further amplify the voices you wanna hear and swear you need. You could be reminding your platform why that type of voice is needed. You could open so many doors if you just... participated
They said that make a pro black statement today and sing. Sing the way you sing. Amplify your nuances and inflections.
Oh and this doesn't just mean "get in the studio". Y'all call niggas up for spiritual advice, to joke, to vent, to cry....Spirit says call up your folks and sing. Have sessions. Shed as a form of fellowship. The Ancestors miss that. They miss it so much
They recall a time when strangers would greet each other with song. Music was also currency and allies would leave songs and dances so that they would always remember each other. The Gullah Prayer Houses, The Southern Band Rooms, The Northern and Western jukes, etc.
They miss that. They remember a time when sound was a key. They say look to the architecture of your ancestors and notice how buildings and castles and pyramids were created to amplify, exaggerate, mimic, and altogether harness the power of sound
Entertainment has convinced u that your gift is a hobby and an ability. It is a superpower and an elemental mastery. Earth Water Fire Air Light Dark Sound Spirit. Baby, you are incomplete because that ONE element has not been fed.

P.S. That ain't spirit now. That's me dragging
Y'all: "stop attacking me" "I just need the resources" "I just need some beats or something"
Me, God, the Ancestors, historical accuracy, and common sense: you can sing acapella on an app and then layer/stack the vocals..but you knew that already
Y'all: but I'm way too nervous

Us again: So y'all will get on here and bully people to use their voices to stand up for the rights of strangers with their whole chest but. YOU are too nervous to stand in your own voice....and sing...some fucking songs?
