Pearly Gates

Southern R&B rap with church clap feel and slow head-nod swing; verse rides sparse keys, warm sub, and handclap pockets, pre-chorus opens with stacked choir responses and a rising organ swell, chorus lands half-time with soulful doubles and a short chant hook. Bridge strips to organ, snapped fingers, and whispered ad-libs before final lift. Close-mic lead vocal, gritty rap cadence in verses, gospel-harmony lift on the hook, bright and intimate mix with tape-worn warmth., rap, r&b
