Chapter 23 Recording My Music Album (2)
(Kara's P.O.V)
It took about two hours before my convoys finally arrived at the lobby of K.S Records.
Joshua quickly opened the door for me to come out while the rest of the bodyguards protectively surrounded me.
I came out of the limousine heading to the entrance of the K.S Records building, looking around they were hundreds of reporters standing at the lobby of the K.S Records with their tapes and recorders ready for action
"Becca did You release any statement through your social media?? I asked her while looking at her intently.
"No, I didn't! Becca swiftly lied.
"Tell me the truth, Becca! I said to her with my eyebrows raised.
"Fine! You got me, I might have accidentally released Your new music album concert to be held at Echancia on my social media, causing the press to swarm here like bees!. Becca apologetically said to me.
"So, You did make a statement?? I asked her slightly irritated by her actions.
"Yeah, and I'm sorry! Becca apologetically said to me.
"(Sigh) Fine! That means I have to brace myself for the impact of the questions they might be bombarding on me now! I said to Becca while sighing deeply.
But still, I decided to sneak past the reporters while Joshua was busy yelling at the press personnels blocking his path.
"Clear the way people! Clear the way! Superstar coming through! Superstar coming through! He kept yelling while trying to clear a path through the multitude of reporters.
"Shhhh! Keep it down, they are gonna hear You! I said to him in a hushed voice, slightly irritated at his actions.
And just when I was about to enter the building, my cover was blown because of Joseph's actions, I was spotted by the press and they immediately rushed to where I was standing, bombarding me with lots of questions.
In a second I was surrounded by lots of reporters pointing their recorders towards my face, the flashes of cameras were not excluded from the ordeal.
"Miss Stewart is it true You will be holding your new album concert at Echancia?? A male reporter asked me pointing his recorder towards my face.
"Yes, it's true, I'll be holding my new album concert in Echancia! I answered the reporter with a smile.
"Miss Stewart, when are going to be releasing your new album?? Another reporter asked me pointing his recorder at my face.
"Let's say before the end of next month! I answered the reporter warmly.
"Miss Stewart, why did You suddenly want to hold a concert continents away from your own country??...What happened to other states and cities in America?? A female reporter aggressively asked me while pointing her recorder towards my face.
"I just wanted to use it as an opportunity to see the tourist attractions of Echancia! I answered the reporter politically.
"Are You saying America is lacking in terms of tourist attractions??...Is that what You are saying?? Another male reporter fired me with yet another question with his recorder pointing right at my face.
"That's not what I'm saying and don't You dare misinterpret me! I fired back coldly to the reporter making him shudder in fright.
"Another question, please! I said to the reporters with a forced smile.
"Miss Stewart, are You going out with Jake Lotandex??...Rumors have it that You are going out with him! A female reporter asked me calmly while pointing her recorder towards my face.
"I'm not going out with Jake Lotandex and I'll never go out with him! I answered the reporter calmly.
"Is there a problem with Jake Lotandex Miss Stewart?? Another female reporter asked me calmly pointing her recorder towards my face.
"No, it's just me and Jake are never going to happen! We are just not meant for each other! I answered the reporter with a smile.
"Do you have someone in mind Miss Stewart??...Or perhaps, You are already dating?? A male reporter asked me while pointing his recorder right at my face.
"Yes, I have someone in mind! I answered the reporter with a blush on my face while reminiscing Jeffrey.
"Who is he??...What's his name??...Is he a singer??...Is he a movie actor?? Another female reporter asked me excitedly while pointing her recorder right at my face.
"I'm sorry I can't say anything about him for now till he is ready! I said to the reporter while making my way towards the entrance of the K.S Records building.
"Miss Stewart, Is he a movie actor??
"Is he a singer??
"Miss Stewart!!
"Miss Stewart!!
"Miss Stewart!!
The reporters kept bombarding questions at me but I paid no attention to them, I hastily walked to the Recording Studio with Becca accompanying me while Joshua and the other bodyguards were blocking the path of the entrance door preventing the press from swarming into the building like bees.
After fifteen minutes of walking, I finally arrived at the recording studio of the K.S Records building, the company wasn't just a company for singers only, it was a company for both singers, actors, and actresses alike since it was an entertainment company.
I walked into the building and my music producer and the studio manager were already waiting for me in the studio room
"Good morning, Mr. Elias!
"Good morning, Mr. Ruby! I greeted my music producer and the studio manager.
"Good morning to You too, Princess! They greeted me back warmly.
"Ready for today's action??...We are gonna be recording nine straight singles are you ready for that?? Mr. Elias asked me warmly.
"Yes, Sir! I answered warmly.
"Then let's get working! Mr. Elias said to me and with that, I walked into the live room for the recording of my first song single.
I wore on my head a headset or headphones ready to start recording upon the command of Mr. Elias, My music producer.
"Are you ready, Miss Kara?? Mr. Elias asked me.
"Yes, Sir! I responded to Mr. Elias warmly.
"Okay! The instrumental is coming to You and we are ready to go in 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and Go!! Mr. Elias, my music producer yelled, and with that, I started to sing my first single titled "Who am I??.
I wrote the song in dedication to those people who are still trying to figure out who they are and what their purpose of existing in this world is all about, I wrote the song to inspire them to take a step in achieving their goals without holding back.
(Who Am I?? Song lyrics)
Can someone tell me, where am I??
Can someone tell me, where I stand??
Have I chosen the correct path??
Should I embark on this journey??
(Pause)
I fear my dreams,
Will they destroy me??
I fear those close to me,
Will they betray me??
Am I the moon??
Or the shadows in it??
Am I the ashes??
Or the raging fire??
Am I the drop or the mighty wave??
Do I bring tranquility??
Or do I bring a storm??
(Pause)
Can someone tell me who am I??
Do I have a purpose??
A reason to be??
Who am I??
I need to know
Who am I??
Do I believe in myself??
Does my existence even matter??
(Pause)
Whose shoulder do I cry on should I falter??
Who will guide me should I lose My way??
AAAAAhhhhhhhh!!
Am I the moon??
Or the shadows in it??
Am I the ashes??
Or the raging fire??
Am I the drop??
Or the mighty wave??
Do I bring tranquility??
Or do I unleash a storm??
Ahh-Ahh!! Ahh-Ahh!! Ahh Ahh!!
AAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Should I live My truth??
Or remain silent??
Should I bear My soul??
Or break My heart??
Should I cross all boundaries??
Or rein myself in??
Should I keep fighting??
Or just give up??
(Pause)
Am I the moon??
Or the shadows in it??
Am I the ashes??
Or the raging fire??
Am I the drop??
Or the mighty wave??
Do I bring tranquility??
Or unleash a storm??
eeeeeehhhhh!! eeeehhh!! eeehhhhhh!!
Can someone please tell me,
Who am I??
And with that, I was through with the first single, about to proceed to the second single.
"Wow! That was amazing! Mr. Elias praised.
"Thank You, Sir! I answered warmly while smiling brightly
"Alright, let's proceed to the second single! Mr.Elias said to me.
"Okay! I smiled.
"Are You Ready?? He asked me.
"Yeah, I'm ready! I answered warmly while smiling brightly.
"Okay! The instrumental Is coming to You and we are ready to go in 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and Go!! Mr. Elias yelled and with that, I started to sing my second single titled "My Dearest Mom."
It was a song I composed in dedication to my mom, she has been there for me through thick and thin and I wanted to express my gratitude through the song, I also wanted to record the song just in case there's someone who also needed to appreciate his or her mom.
(My Dearest Mom Song lyrics)
"This song is for You Mom,
"Thank You for being there for me every step of the way.
"Thank You for not giving up on me when others did.
"Here we go!!!
She's a little cute and a little stern too,
She's a little cool,
And a little old school too!
She's like a sweet, chilled juice on a hot summer day!
She's like a warm blanket on a freezing night!
(Chorus)
My dearest Mom!!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!!
(Pause)
When I'm troubled, she's all in tears!!
In my joy too,
Her tears make her scarf wet!
With every teardrop,
She weaves blessings
Will someone tell me,
Are all Moms like this??
(Pause)
Sometimes she's practical,
And something she's emotional
Her one smile,
Dispels all My worries.
She's like a master key which opens all the locks to My fortunes.
I've placed in her care,
All my trunks, full of dreams!
La la la la la la la la la!!!
My dearest Mom!!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!..
My dearest Mom!!!..
She's My dearest, My Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!!!
She's my dearest, My Mom!!!
And I'm grateful!!
To have someone like her as My Mom!!!!
You are My dearest friend, My Mom!
She's My story writer!
And she still keeps writing good stories for my life!!!
Yeah!!! Yeah!!! Yeah!!! Yeah!!!
My dearest Mom!!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!!
My dearest Mom!!!
She's My dearest, My Mom!!
Wooa!!! oh oh oh un un un un Yeah!!
My dearest Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!
My dearest Mom!!
She's My dearest Mom!!
"Bravo! Bravo! Wonderful!! Mr. Elias praised me as soon as I was through with the song.
"I bet if I play this song single for My Mom, she will be shedding tears of joy! Mr.Ruby added.
"Thank You very much, I'm glad You like it! I said to them warmly while smiling brightly.
"Alright, let's proceed to the third single!
"Are you ready?? Mr. Elias asked me.
"Born ready! I replied to him.
"Alright then! The instrumental is coming to You and we are ready to go in 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and Go!! Mr. Elias yelled and with that, I started to sing my third song single titled " I Dance Wild And Free."
It was a song I composed in dedication to Jeffrey the love of my life, although we aren't dating yet, but I was sure he will know of my feelings for him through this song if he listens to his heart.
(I Dance Wild And Free Song lyrics)
Your words and thoughts will flow from me,
In Your praise and devotion,
Will I always sing.
In robes weaved of Your love, I'll dress Myself,
And merge into Your colors.
With ornaments bejeweled with Your love, I'll decorate Myself in
And merge into Your radiance!!
(Chorus)
I dance wild and free!
Adorned in you, my love!
I dance wild and free!
Resonating with you, my love!
(Pause)
I've lost my bearings,
The world taunts!
I'm beyond consciousness, I'm beyond reasoning.
I've lost Myself, they say!
I've lost My identity to You!
They scorn me!
(Pause)
But what do they know??
The mysteries of this heart??
How can they understand My love for You??
If they don't know the mysteries of this heart??
By losing myself to You and realizing your love for me,
I've found myself, now I'm complete!
I'm one with myself because I found Your love!
(Pause)
I'll abandon all ties and come to You!
All evil aimed at You, let it befall me!!
In robes weaved of Your love, I'll dress myself,
And merge into Your colors.
With ornaments bejeweled with Your love, I'll decorate myself,
And merge into your radiance.
(Chorus)
I dance wild and free!
Adorned in You, My love!
I dance wild and free!
Resonating with You, My love!
I dance wild and free!
Adorned in You, My love!
I dance wild and free!
Resonating with You, My love!
(Pause)
hu hu hu hu hu hu uhh hu hu hu hu hu hu
I dance wild and free!
Adorned in You, my love!
I dance wild and free!
Resonating with You, my love!
uhhnnnn uhhnnnn uhhnnnn!
I dance wild and free, for You My love!!
And with that, I was through with the third single.
"Wow! That was amazing Miss Stewart! Mr.Elias said to me with a praising tone
"Thanks! I'm glad You love it! I said to Mr.Elias warmly while smiling brightly.
"I bet You composed that song for someone very close to You! A boyfriend I suppose?? Mr.Elias asked me.
"Yeah! I answered.
"Who is this lucky guy to deserve the love of the Pop Princess?? Mr.Elias teased.
"He's someone very special and dear to Me! I said to Mr.Elias.
"Does this special guy have a name?? Mr.Ruby asked me.
"Yeah, but I'm sorry I can't say his name, not even to You Mr.Elias! I said to them with a firm tone
And with that, I proceeded to record the remaining songs of My album.
Hours later, I was done recording the remaining songs of My album and they were titled as thus:-
(1) Misunderstood
(2) Nobody's Perfect
(3) I Got Nerve
(4) This is the life
(5) Don't let me Down
(6) If Cupid had a heart
Then I proceeded to record some bonus tracks and they were titled as thus:-
(1) Dreaming of You
(2) I could fall in love
(3) Life's What You Make It
The bonus tracks were added to My already recorded duets and singles, I recorded when Jake was around, I frowned My face feeling pissed at the thought of Jake
Thirty minutes later, I left the Studio room as soon as I was done recording my songs and went straight to the laundry unit to look for Jeffrey.
I couldn't wait to see him and confess my emotions to him but to My disappointment, he wasn't anywhere in the laundry unit.
I went further to the head of the laundry department and asked about the whereabouts of Jeffrey but I was told he called sick months ago, I felt a tinge of pain in My heart when I heard the word "Sick."
I left the K.S Records building minutes later after bidding My Mom bye and headed straight home in My limousine with Joshua driving Me and the rest limousines containing the rest of My bodyguards escorting Me as My convoys.
I got home, had My shower, and went downstairs to have My dinner alone since Becca and My mom would be coming home late.
While eating I envisioned myself having a dinner date with Jeffrey, smiling and laughing happily.
I felt a huge pain in my heart when I came out of My fantasy world, realizing that everything I saw myself doing was just a mirage, I prayed sincerely in my heart for God to heal Jeffrey so I could see him again soon.
Minutes later I dragged Myself to My room feeling tired from the song recording ordeal, it was already 9 pm and I had to sleep on time knowing I'll be shooting my music videos hours from now.
