How Deep Do Lyrics Go?

How long does the musical process really take? How much time would it take to have an artist make a #1 hit. The true answer is that it could take a matter of hours, days, months, or even years. The music that we listen to is set to have some type of emotion directed towards ones self, whether it be a lyric that relates to any given period of time in your life or a beat that just goes perfectly with how your day is going. These songs are created to have a reaction to ones emotions at any given period of time. However- not every song is written directly for an audience to relate, it could be a personal song that just barely made it to made an album. Often times these songs create a vulnerability (another side) that the artist shows their fans or listeners. For example, G-EAZY, his most recent album takes us on a rollercoaster ride with him as he climbs his way up to fame. He shares his most personal issues and gives us vivid images that he believes brought him to where he is today. In the album, When Its Dark Out, he starts off with an intro to set the tone to not only show his vulnerability but to also make his listeners vulnerable. He draws a beat that gets suspenseful and that brings almost a sense of fear as he brings small quotes and saying that could happen if he loses his fame in a matter of seconds.
Moving onto his album he sings a song called Everything Will Be Ok featuring Kehlani. Gerald ( G- EAZY) speakes about picking up and leaving everything behind for a whole new life.
