Production

As soon as the extra presence in his personal paradise left, Arthur began to reflect on what he would create. There were so many songs in mind, but his first song would define his image in many people's minds. As they say, the first impression is the last impression. He knew the future direction of music and with so many hits in mind he didn't want to stick to one style, plus he had to think about the original release date of these songs, to be able to get the best out of them.

With so many hits being released over the next few years, it was impossible for him to release them all, but he would like to release as many as possible.

After much thought, he finally decided on a timeless song with an incredible dance rhythm, incorporating elements of hip hop, crunk and R&B into its structure.

The song chosen was: Yeah, by Usher with appearances by Lil Jon and Ludacris.

A song that made a name for itself without being driven by record companies, its release in Arthur's last life was achieved through a leak of the single to radio stations by producer Lil Jon and promptly became successful and became popular with the public.

Choosing this song was a way of guarding against a possible boycott by Bob, either by not releasing the song or by refusing to publish it.

As soon as these thoughts came they passed and Arthur began to get used to the much older production instruments compared to the ones he had already used. Being alone in a production room having to record the song that could decide his life and using completely new equipment was a somewhat new experience for him.

So, when he arrived at the studio, he left at 8:00 p.m., and only left at 7:00 a.m., completely exhausted. He stopped at Mc Donalds, ate and took a taxi, as soon as he locked the door he passed out on the couch.

So, Friday arrived and the only thing Arthur did that week was go to the studio, record, eat, sleep and make some money. In just these 5 days, with food and taxis he had already spent a good part of his savings, so to replace them he continued the business that the previous owner of the body did.

Due to his mother's efforts when he was young and his good grades, Arthur ended up attending high school at a good school, with some playboys who had a lot of money and a lot of desire to use drugs, but little courage to buy them on the streets, what he did was be the intermediary between the two sides. Buying and reselling on demand.

However, he didn't spend much of his time on this, all his energy was on music production. In the last few days he didn't even set foot at school for one day, he just called her and asked for a week's leave for health reasons.

He spent all those early mornings awake, completely immersed in music production. When he wasn't in the studio, he was sleeping, doing some physical activity to keep his body in shape, or planning how to optimize his time in the studio.

It was now 10:00 p.m. and Arthur was walking down the Columbia hallway towards the water fountain with an empty bottle of water in his hand. He was so distracted that he only noticed that there was a person with their head down filling a bottle when he reached it.

" Goodnight! I think this is my chance to ask you for an autograph. I'll take advantage of your security guard not being around. " Ace said first, catching the attention of the girl who was completely distracted as well. Apparently with a head full of complicated thoughts that she would love to forget.

It turns out that this girl was none other than Beyoncé.

" Goodnight! From what I remember, the last time we met I was without security guards, just sorting out some work things. " With her attention brought back to the real world, she found herself in front of a man she had encountered a few days ago, also in the Columbia hallway. Initially she frowned at the sudden discomfort and promptly countered her words.

"I wasn't really talking about your bodyguards, I was talking about Jay Z, he didn't seem very happy to see me looking at you. But do what? I'm just a fan. But the great Beyoncé, still remembering a small meeting with me, is something that makes me honored. He responded quickly, revealing a smile.

"I'm actually very good with memory. " She responded with a smile this time, but tacitly ignoring the first part of his speech. However, unconsciously perhaps her finger stopped pressing the water fountain button and consequently the water stopped falling into the bottle, as if to prolong the conversation.

" And your job? I heard you're recording the last track on your album. I will definitely buy a copy to listen to. "

"That's not something they tell everyone, I think you forgot to say that you were asking about me. " Now it was her turn to carry out the attack.

"Um, it looks like someone discovered me. I'm just a fan, what can I do? He said as he opened his arms as if to express that he was suffering an injustice.

"Now I really believe that you are my fan and the work is still going well, we just need the last details now. "

Now if Arthur's memory wasn't wrong she was lying to him, if he remembered correctly and he probably did, her album had recently been delayed and she was dealing with the lack of an impactful lead single, which she was looking at this moment, then, in a matter of 1 second, everything fell into place in Ace's mind and he continued the conversation.

"Well, since your work is going well I would like to ask your opinion about my music. What do you say if we come to my room just for a moment so I can show you the newest song of the year. "

Although initially uncomfortable with the idea, she concluded that it might actually be better for her productivity to take a break and listen to a different genre than what she has been listening to non-stop for the last few hours. So she ended up agreeing.

"You may come in, Your Majesty, feel free. Just sit down while you can where you feel comfortable, as soon as my music starts playing you won't be able to sit anymore. Arthur announced as he opened the door for her.

"You're making my expectations grow, I hope it's as good as you say. "

The two continued the conversation for 2 minutes until the first voice from the speakers finally appeared, causing them both to shut up.
