Suno prompt

A tender afrobeats track blending jazz with high energy and a swung feel at 90 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a brushed snare and tight closed hats. Warm analog pads carry the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A full-voiced female vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the vocal. Mixed in a clean and spacious style, foregrounding vocal clarity and low-end weight, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.

Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
