The prompt

A tender afrobeats track blending R&B with explosive energy and a broken-beat feel at 103 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under hand percussion with a tight and dry snare and shimmering open hats. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus. A warm male vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the vocal. Mixed in a open and dynamic style, foregrounding vocal clarity and harmonic warmth, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a euphoric and open atmosphere.
