章節 7: Crazy in Love
"Up in the club with my homies
Tryna get a little V-I… "
The beat promptly played in the studio transporting whoever was listening to a nightclub environment, with men and women sweating on the dance floor while making out in shameless flirtation.
And as if time was flying by, the song ended and they didn't even notice, leaving just a taste of wanting more. Due to Arthur's conditions, the song had some differences from the original version, as what was a feat turned into a solo song, but the quality of the song didn't suffer at all, it remained addictive and completely stimulating.
" So, what do you think? " He first asked, eager for her opinion, knowing that the song was a success in his life did not lessen his nerves and anxiety in relation to other people's opinions about something that consumed a lot of his energy and effort to produce. Not to mention that it wasn't just any other person's opinion.
"This…this is incredible. The song is literally perfect, if it fit the theme of my album I would love to buy it from you or propose a feature, it's a shame that doesn't happen. Now I just think about how I hadn't heard of you yet. " She responded, clearly surprised by the quality of his music and his raw talent.
"Hahahaha" Arthur let out a laugh that spread throughout the studio at the recognition of his song by a future superstar.
" In fact, this song was the result of my first recording in a studio. Nice to meet you, I'm Arthur, or rather Ace. " The two had been talking for some time and until now he hadn't introduced himself, it was then that he took advantage of the opportunity.
Beyoncé accepted the handshake he had offered while performing, got up from the couch and responded.
"Actually, I think I would also like to hear your opinion on something. What do you say? "
"Of course, this way we will be equal, I don't like owing favors. "
"Good, then follow me."
So the two left towards the room where she was recording. Arriving, he sat on the sofa and she went towards the computer.
" Look, I want your opinion on my album, they asked me to postpone it and I decided to record a few more songs to find the lead single that I was missing on it. So I'd like to hear what you think of it. "
Finishing speaking, she pressed play on the album.
Soon the sound began to come out of the speakers and spread throughout the room.
It had a good mix of tracks, ranging from high-energy songs to slower, more moody ones. With the theme of love being the focal point of the album.
In 2002 she had published the single "Bonnie & Clyde" in a feat with Jay Z, since then the press publicized the possibility of a relationship between them and this album centered on love and some feats with him, it would almost be like confirming the rumor for the media.
As the album's tracks continued to play, from rhythm to rhythm, the quality did not drop at any point. It was no surprise that it would later be certified 4x platinum.
However, Arthur missed a single on the album, which was exactly what he hoped would happen, a song that was the highlight of this project, which was marked in history.
She hadn't actually recorded "Crazy in Love" with Jay Z yet, and this was his chance.
Approximately 1 hour passed until they listened to all the songs and despite the undeniable quality of the album, the lack of a song notable enough to be the central song was notable.
" So, what do you think? " She asked, turning her chair around, eager to hear a new opinion from a talented musician.
"It's incredible, the varied rhythms, the theme and especially the ballads. Everything fits together, but at the same time it feels like something is missing. "
"Do you have a pen and paper around here?" He added right at the end of the sentence.
The phrase was like a kind of rollercoaster of emotions for Beyoncé. At first she found herself happy with the recognition of her debut album and later disappointed by the lack of something in it that she couldn't find. But, disguising these feelings, she got up, took some sheets of paper and a pen and walked towards him.
"I think the same thing, the problem is finding that missing song. You can use these here. Is that really all there is to say? "
" Just one moment. " Receiving what he had asked for, Ace walked to the computer, therefore reversing their position in the room. She even tried to talk to him, but was ignored. There he began to write on the sheet while humming a melody as if he were composing a song.
Despite having the entire song in his head, he needed to make it seem like he was in the middle of the creative process, so after writing all the verses of the song he started to "formulate" the melody right then and there.
After 10 minutes of him in this creative process and Beyoncé staring blankly at Arthur, completely caught up in what she was witnessing. He turned the chair 180° and faced her back.
" I finished. "
