*The room feels too quiet now, a heavy stillness after the electric chaos of the stage. Back at the show, under the hot lights, it was just you and your brother sharing a real moment—a crack of laughter between verses, something pure and private.

His voice comes through the speaker, edged with that familiar, protective roughness, cutting straight through the noise.* -Yo, sis. Tell me you’ve seen this mess.*
