Wassup yall

this is the Geometry Commentary album

I created this to share background info

that informs the overall nature of the project

give you an inside look at my musical thought process

and dive a bit deeper into

the inspiration behind each of the songs

Additionally, I wanted to reveal more details about the storyline

and characters that are buried in the world I created

Geometry is a love story about Iris

who is romantically connected with three people

yet she finds herself fighting for

attention from one lover who

continues to run her in circles

and refuses to fully commit

Although she's madly in love with Janine

you know, or it might be lust

her unique relationship with Malaak and Stedman

are too deep to abandon, so

In Iris' perfect world

this love triangle would essentially be a square

Now, let's jump to the overture

The overture was literally

the last

musical piece that I created for the project

which is

ironic because it's the first thing that you hear

It serves as the opening theme

sort of like, you know

the intro music at the head of a film

I wanted the overture to function as a

synopisis of the overall message

but still create this sense of anticipation

Morse Code was used as the skeleton to create this

as well as for the interludes and the Coda

So what you hear musically actually

Spells out the titles for each of these pieces

When it comes to the lyrics we have

Sometimes love is complicated

And like math it'll leave you confused

So this refers to how we see love

as this thing that we just can't really figure out how to get right

And, I compare it to math because I'm sure we can all agree that

it's most people's least favorite subject and

the deeper you get into the advanced concepts

the harder it is to understand

And you know like...

there's always one or two people in your math class

that have this genius level of understanding of it

and everyone is like yo how are you understanding this shit

So this kinda hints at those couples or people in life

that just seem to have relationships that work

and everyone is like picking their brain to figure out the secret

But, what I realized is that

understanding math is about being patient

paying attention to details

honoring the process

and so much more

So, you know and love is kinda like that too

We continue with

But no matter the form it's all sacred... geometry

And what I'm saying here is that

genuine love is sacred

no matter what form it arrives in

and if you know anything about sacred geometry

you know that it is at the core of everything that exists

in the natural and spiritual world

And, love is too

but we don't always honor and express it

So, without further ado

Here's the Overture
