about

For the 3rd installment of Phlow’s ongoing #PhlowFridays’ series, the Nigerian native returns with a nostalgic track titled, “A Different Broth,” produced by Teck-Zilla. For this offering, Phlow pays homage to Lagos, the city that raiser her, and pinpoints the exact moment when she picked up the pen: “I had the radio turned up on blast, 2AM alone I’m coming from a show that passed/ My bedtime stayin’ up so they don’t sleep on this, I think they woke a sleeping giant in this game oh sh*t.” Phlow continues by pledging that she plans to be different, and not follow the crowd to achieve success. To date, it’s plain to see that her music is reflective of such a promise.

lyrics

[Verse 1: Phlow]
Reaching for the hardest bars I ever had to write
Yeah this the hardest thing I ever had to bite
Nah i’m kidding driving down a fast lane Osbourne
Was when the lyrics floated up and then came
I had the radio turned up on blast
2 a.m alone coming from a show way past
My bedtime staying up so they don’t sleep on this
I think they woke a sleeping giant in this game oh shit
Focused ,developed a super power the past don’t even matter to me
I'm looking forward thats the only path that matters to me
Be me
Thats the major thing I’m going for
Right people around me positive, vibing and going forth
Free styling in the dark
I guess that how them hits done came along
Squeezing in my closet with my mic to get the perfect song
Born and breed up in this city
I been cooking ,cooking up a different broth up in the Gidi



[Chorus:Phlow]
*Screwed Vocals*



[Verse 2: Phlow]
Story time, My story board showed everything my vision blurred
So I reach for lenses prescribed to view the world
A little clearer see intentions when they steer her
In directions whose your Uber when your engines knocked from pressure
Ask for punches I ain't really got that much of it
A lover not a fighter but don’t test me though come off of it yo
I will represent what I will represent
I won’t be here today and gone tomorrow
For the fame and glit (hell of it)
I hope they get me not just
Monkey see and monkey do
Hope they have a why and not a
Do it cuz they think its cool
I'm here to own this from the start
And that is be true to my art i said my art
And thats the
The freaking meaning of the Phlow
That comes in naturally and thats it
Sorry if u didn’t get the punches and the matches
Sorry if d song I say i’ll drop to me is banging
And to u it isn’t how u though this was supposed to happen ahh
Born and breed up in this city
I been cooking cooking up a different broth up in the Gidi
