"Urban Retro Life (Vol. 1)" is Lei Row's 2nd mixtape ("Lei Row presents Euphoria" is her 1st mixtape). This project borrows and blends sounds and styles of hip-hop, r&b, and pop music, especially from the 90s and early 2000s. It is written, vocally arranged, and co-produced by Lei and sets the tone for how she writes and vocally arranges in her own work. On this mixtape, Lei is singing over major and independent music industry beat production and DJ woriel was behind the blending and transitions of some of the tracks. The major industry beat production that she uses are from songs: "Black Nostaljack" by Camp-Lo, "Long Kiss Goodnight" by The Notorious B.I.G., "New Slaves" by Kanye West, and "Pain" by Tupac. The independent beat production is courtesy of Kenneth "Marty McLaren" Onyeaka, Brahim "Mercutio" Derkaoui, Max Layn, Kevin "Gripp" Gripper, Dogukan "Do" Gungor, and Jason "J-Sweet" Sweeting. The subject matter in the songs range from love/companionship highs and lows to race relations, family, and messages of inspiration.
We hope you enjoy the project!

lyrics
INTRO:
In the relationships that don't work out
There's always one who wanted more, gave more, loved the other more
So if you're that one, the one of more
Don't worry, your time for love, true love
Will fall in place
1ST VERSE:
Never said that I'm perfect
But I know that I'm worth it
So you gotta put work in
If you feel you're deserving
Finding love is a blessing
And each mistake's been a lesson
From which I've learned
Can't put no rush on love, just wait your turn
PRE-VESE:
Let it come your way, let it come your way
If it's your time then it will all fall in place, it will all fall in place
Let it come your way, let it come your way
Everyone ain't that special one, but it will all fall in place
CHORUS:
All I really, all I really, all I really want
That special love, someone to trust, but I won't rush
All I really, all I really, all I really want
That special love, someone to trust, but I won't rush
Want, want
2ND VERSE:
I was way too persistent
When I should have just resisted
The warning signs but when you're young and blind
You just can't get it right and you fight your feelings anyway
PRE-VESE:
Let it come your way, let it come your way
When it's your time, remember it will all fall in place yea
Let it come your way, let it come your way
Everyone ain't that special one, but it will all fall in place
CHORUS:
All I really, all I really, all I really want
That special love, someone to trust, but I won't rush
All I really, all I really, all I really want
That special love, someone to trust, but I won't rush
Want, want
But I can't rush yea
No, oh, mmm hmm
All I want
All I want
