Curls (Girly Girl)

(Annabel Chima)

This lyric specifically uplifts 'Exotical' women - women who are Mixed-race (with Black/African/Caribbean), women who have lived the 'Mixed-race Experience', or those who are constantly sought after/fetishized for 'looking Mixed'. As a DSE (Dark(er)-Skinned Exotical) myself, this Song Lyric is important to me because my phenotype and aesthetic have always been the centre of discussion/attention/speculation, especially in a sexual way. I want other Exoticals, whether Light-Skinned, Brown-Skinned, or Dark-Skinned, to feel understood and uplifted in a validating and empowering way. This Lyric focuses on 'curly hair' (type 2 waves, but more specifically type 3 curly hair) which is often a phenotype that gets fetishized by men and women of other races/phenotypes. This fetish is also seen through people trying to look like us e.g. wearing our natural curls as wigs and/or wand curling their own hair to mimic ours etc. The celebrity women I mention in this song are ICONS to me and are a great representation of 'Exotical' Beauty. I am solely giving them homage. This Song Lyric was also mildly inspired by the Exotical Movement (EGTOW) and it could be seen as 'political' but it is absolutely NOT political - it is solely to uplift Exoticals (with said phenotype). A little bit cheeky, but fun. Suitable for the following Genres: Hip-hop, RnB, Rock, Rap.

Escape (my reality)

By Annabel Chima


Sometimes one needs to take a break/vacation from life and just simply "escape" to find inner peace. I was inspired by my current situation: I have deleted my Instagram, Twitter and majority of my social media accounts. The lyrics romanticise, fantasise and personify the loneliness of fame. It also speaks of losing (fake) friends in the process of becoming more famous. The vibes/atmosphere of the song are very contemplative and weird. It also has a nostalgic element to it also. Genres: RnB, Pop, Indie/Rock, Hip Hop. The lyrics are best fitted in the aforementioned music genres.

IG Accounts

By Annabel Chima


So this lyric was inspired by real events: I was on Instagram, minding my own business - as you do, when a 'bot' (fake account) pops up to me asking to be my "good friend." He had a bogus-looking profile picture (it looked superimposed), '0' following, and '0' followers, and I just remember thinking that he must be a creep; so I decided to play him at his own game. After several chats, I sent my Cashapp and asked for money, to see if he was really who he said he was; if he pulled through, we could continue talking. (That's how you test these bots so that they won't try it again). He replied, "No thank you miss" and proceeded to 'unsend' all his sent messages...creep. These lyrics are very personal to me. It discusses the situations like I have mentioned above - the plights of Instagram - in a very satirical way. These lyrics are mockingly funny, and should not be taken too seriously. The vibes and atmosphere of the song are very freeing and playful. GENRES: Rnb, Mumble Rap, Drill, Rock, Pop. These lyrics fit perfectly into the aforementioned genres.

Through Your Eyes

By Annabel Chima


This lyric was also inspired by Mariah Carey's 2005 song, 'We Belong Together'. I wanted to capture the dramatic emotions of feeling like you are close to a breaking point or even close to death - surviving and rising from what could have broken you. This lyric describes the unbreakable bond between two lovers; they would be willing to do anything to save each other, as they share a bond so deep, they see life through each other's eyes. The vibes/atmosphere is very romantic, deep, hopeful, and triumphant. There is a spiritual element to it also. Genres: Pop, Indie/Rock, Ballads.

LUV ME

By Annabel Chima


This lyric is inspired by the dainty 2005 Mariah Carey song, 'We Belong Together'. My lyrics have a soft vibe/atmosphere to them, that emphasises the want for all aspects of self to be loved by others. It explores a needy/desperate tone, but within that, it is very vulnerable, as there is an acceptance of self that is present, and an element that does not need validation. Genres: Rnb, Pop, Ballads.
