Why this music
Because the book runs on slow-burn tension between pride and longing, the playlist stays warm and close — R&B grooves with just enough pulse to feel the friction without releasing it. Tracks open loose and sun-drenched, then deepen as walls come down, leaning into neo-soul intimacy and quiet trap-influenced beats for the late-night chapters.
