A Twitter user mentioned the slight dip in Solange’s voice on her song “Things I Imagined,” and Solange explained that repetition has assisted her with reinforcing her truth. Hence the repetition on the song. Solange shared that by the 11th time she sang, “I saw things I imagined,” she actually felt it.

Solange alluded that she’s really about that life. She alluded that when she sings, “you can get it” in “Way to the Show,” she means bullets. Hence the gun clicks and shots in the production of the track.
