The prompt

A brooding R&B track blending soul with explosive energy and a swung feel at 103 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under hand percussion with a clap-layered snare and washy crash-led cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A warm male vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Vinyl crackle adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a open and dynamic style, foregrounding melodic lead and vocal clarity, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.
