Lately, i've been trying to figure out your mind
And why you keep dissin' me
Poor little me
And why you have a change of heart
And turn it all around
And then try to put it on me
Poor little me
But don't you know

I could be a trip
I could make things hard
But baby i believe that you still got a heart
That's why i
Try to stop myself before i start
'cause i could make it tough
I could make it rough
But i won't

Well i'll be givin' you the benefit
Of the doubt
Givin' you a minute to
Try to work it on out
I'll be givin' you the benefit
Of the doubt
And i'm givin' you a minute to
Try to work it on out

Baby, work it on, work it on out
Work, work, work
Baby, work it on, work it on out
Work, work, work

Baby how could you be hangin' out on the town
And claim that you missin' me
Poor little me
When you knew all the time
That you could've been with your homegirl
Lovin' and a kissin' on me
Sweet little me
But don't you know

If you wanna be a man
You gotta work real hard
If you wanna make me feel i'm like your number one and
Nothin' in the world should make us part
Cause we can make it work
If you take away the hurt
From the heart

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
