# What's Up Neighbour?
**Artist:** Beaddy West
**Released:** 2026-06-09
**Label:** BadBeadRecords
**Brief from:** Tee (2026-06-09)
## Concept
A cul-de-sac sitcom in a song. **Beaddy West** narrates life on a multicultural block where everybody's all up in everybody's business — and secretly loves it. The comedy engine: *the narrator is the biggest mess on the street*, so every joke punches **sideways and up**, never down.
The cast:
- **Beaddy West** — our hero, a loveable disaster (crooked parking, bins on the stump, the infamous 3 a.m. raccoon incident).
- **Ree-Cardo** — the most vocal neighbour, has an opinion on *everything* (your lawn, your mailbox lean, recycling, the league). Loud as a siren, soft as a sheep — shovels your drive when the snow gets deep.
- **Sultry Lady** (number twenty-two) — just when she'd started to like Beaddy, the raccoon night happened. The romance is a casualty of the block, but she still takes his parcels.
- **The Pamily** next door — the warm Filipino family who throw the legendary weekend parties (lechon, karaoke, lola on the mic) and invite **everybody**. They're the **heart of the whole block** and the moral center of the song.
## A note on tone (important)
Brief came in as "a semi racist song." We built it as **affectionate multicultural block-party comedy**, not denigration:
- The narrator (Beaddy) is the butt of every joke.
- The Filipino family next door are the **heroes** — best food, biggest hearts, the people who dissolve every petty feud with a plate. Cultural texture is celebration (lechon, lumpia, karaoke, "come, eat na"), never caricature. Production 5 ("The Pamily Anthem") is an explicit **love letter** and must be played straight/warm.
- Ree-Cardo is an *archetype* (the opinionated neighbour), not an ethnic slur target.
- No slurs, no demeaning generalizations. The recurring "puck it" is the only profanity, played for laughs.
If anything ever reads as punching down, it gets cut. The whole thesis is: *we don't pick our neighbours, and that's the beautiful part.*
## 3 versions
| Version | Vibe | File |
|---|---|---|
| **V1 — Block Party** | the main cut: introduce the whole cast, ends at the Pamily feast | [`lyrics-v1-block-party.md`](./lyrics-v1-block-party.md) |
| **V2 — The HOA Meeting** | storyline remix: Ree-Cardo puts Beaddy "on trial," the Pamily's food dissolves the whole agenda | [`lyrics-v2-hoa-meeting.md`](./lyrics-v2-hoa-meeting.md) |
| **V3 — Porch Light** | tender late-night version: everyone's gone in, Beaddy realizes the chaos is the thing he'd miss | [`lyrics-v3-porch-light.md`](./lyrics-v3-porch-light.md) |
## 6 productions
One song, six beats to cover the whole audience — see [`productions.md`](./productions.md):
1. **Front Stoop Funk** (flagship funk-soul) · 2. **Stoop Riddim** (reggae/lovers-rock) · 3. **West Coast Cul-de-Sac** (G-funk, the Beaddy *West* gag) · 4. **Calle Ree-Cardo** (cumbia/Latin) · 5. **The Pamily Anthem** (OPM pop-ballad, the warm one) · 6. **Back Porch Lo-Fi** (acoustic late-night).
Shared stamp across all six: spoken **"What's up, neighbour?"** + a screen-door creak.
## Lore beats woven in
| Beat | Where |
|---|---|
| Snow-shoveling / cold-street neighbourliness (Oakville winter) | V1, V3 |
| The block as a found family / the swarm-of-characters motif | all |
| "Come, eat" hospitality as the unifying value | all |
(Light touch — this one lives in its own neighbourhood world more than the robot lore.)
## Copyright gates (all passed)
- Zero real artists, songs, labels, or producers named ("Beaddy West" is an original BadBeadRecords MC)
- Zero slurs; ethnic references are positive/celebratory (food, music, hospitality) or archetype-only
- All characters, the "What's up, neighbour?" hook, and "puck it" original to BadBeadRecords

# What's Up Neighbour? — Lyrics (Version 1: Block Party)
**Artist:** Beaddy West
**Track:** What's Up Neighbour? (V1 — the main cut)
**Length target:** 3:10–3:40
---
```
TITLE: What's Up Neighbour?
ARTIST: Beaddy West
[INTRO — screen door creak, lawnmower idling, ~8 bars]
(What's up, neighbour?)
(Ay — Ree-Cardo, put the leaf-blower down, man…)
[HOOK]
What's up, neighbour? (what's up, what's up?)
Curtain twitchin', here come the judgment, what's up
Whole block fam, even when we cussed up
Puck it — pull a chair up, neighbour, what's up
(What's up, neighbour? What's up, neighbour?)
[VERSE 1 — Beaddy West]
I'm the worst one here, let's be honest from the jump,
Park crooked, blast the bass, leave the bins on the stump.
But Ree-Cardo got a clipboard and a opinion on it ALL —
the weather, my fence, the league, and the mall.
"You water at noon? That's a CRIME," he decree,
got a take on my taxes and my family tree.
He don't garden, he SUPERVISES the street,
mayor of the cul-de-sac that never asked for a seat.
I say what's up, Ree — he say "let me TELL you what's up,"
forty minutes on recycling 'fore I finish my cup.
But the man shovel my drive when the snow get deep —
loud as a siren, heart soft as a sheep.
[HOOK]
What's up, neighbour? (what's up, what's up?)
Curtain twitchin', here come the judgment, what's up
Whole block fam, even when we cussed up
Puck it — pull a chair up, neighbour, what's up
[VERSE 2 — Beaddy West]
Now Sultry Lady moved in number twenty-two,
slow wave on the porch like the morning dew.
Just when she started to LIKE me — I swear it was real,
she caught me in pajamas chasin' a raccoon with a peel.
3 a.m., flashlight, one slipper, no shame,
she shut the blind slow, like — "and I knew your name."
Puck it. The romance a casualty of the block,
but she still take my parcels and she still set my clock.
One day I'll fix it with a casserole and a song —
'til then I just wave and pretend nothin' wrong.
What's up, Sultry Lady? (she say "…hey.")
Progress. I'll take the one-syllable, okay.
[BRIDGE — the Pamily next door rises up, karaoke swell]
But the heart of this whole block is the house with the lights —
the Pamily next door, every weekend, all night.
Lola on the karaoke, tito on the grill,
lechon in the yard got the whole street ill.
They invite EVERYBODY — me, Ree, Sultry too,
"come, come, eat na, there's enough, there's a few!"
(There's never "a few" — there's a FEAST for a town)
that's the love that hold this cul-de-sac down.
Pinoy party rules: you leave with a plate,
auntie pack you leftovers, won't take a debate.
So puck the petty beefs, puck the fence-line war —
when the Pamily say come, ain't nobody keep score.
[HOOK — full block sings]
What's up, neighbour? (what's up, what's up?)
Curtain twitchin', but we share when the plate fill up
Whole block fam, even when we cussed up
Puck it — pull a chair up, neighbour, what's up
(What's up, neighbour? What's up, neighbour?)
[OUTRO — party fades, crickets, screen door]
(Plate's ready, Beaddy! — comin', auntie, comin'…)
What's up, neighbour…
(Ree-Cardo, you want the white meat? — "let me TELL you what I want…")
…puck it. Pull a chair up.

# What's Up Neighbour? — Lyrics (Version 2: The HOA Meeting)
**Artist:** Beaddy West
**Track:** What's Up Neighbour? (V2 — the storyline remix)
**Length target:** 3:20–3:50
---
```
TITLE: What's Up Neighbour? (HOA Meeting)
ARTIST: Beaddy West
[INTRO — folding chairs scraping, gavel taps a coffee mug, ~8 bars]
(Order, order — Ree-Cardo callin' the meeting to order…)
(Beaddy, you're late. — what's up, neighbour…)
[HOOK]
What's up, neighbour? (point of order!)
Ree-Cardo got the floor and he won't give it back, what's up
Whole block packed in a garage, paper cups
Puck it — somebody brought lumpia, what's up
(What's up, neighbour? What's up, neighbour?)
[VERSE 1 — Beaddy West]
Tuesday night, HOA, in Ree-Cardo's garage,
agenda item one: "Beaddy's lawn — a mirage."
Item two: my mailbox "lean three degrees east,"
item three: the raccoon (yeah, that story won't cease).
He got slides. He got a LASER pointer, my guy,
chart of my recycling sins since July.
Sultry Lady in the back row tryna hide a little grin —
oh, she enjoyin' this, watchin' me take it on the chin.
I stand up like "objection, my fence is just RUSTIC,"
Ree-Cardo say "rustic is French for you don't dust it."
The garage lost it. Even I had to laugh —
the man roast me clean and then halve my path.
[HOOK]
What's up, neighbour? (point of order!)
Ree-Cardo got the floor and he won't give it back, what's up
Whole block packed in a garage, paper cups
Puck it — somebody brought lumpia, what's up
[VERSE 2 — Beaddy West]
Then the Pamily roll in twenty minutes deep,
"sorry, sorry, we bring food, don't lose sleep!"
Trays on the workbench — now it's a PARTY not a court,
tito plug the speaker in, motion's cut short.
Ree-Cardo tryna finish his anti-Beaddy decree,
lola hand him a plate — "eat first, then complain, hokay?"
He sat DOWN. He ate. The whole agenda dissolved
in garlic rice and a feud nobody resolved.
Sultry Lady slide me a plate, didn't say a word,
just a look like "you're a mess… but you're OUR mess," I heard.
The meeting adjourned to a karaoke fight —
Ree-Cardo did a power ballad, killed it, by the way, alright.
[BRIDGE — the truce]
See the agenda was never 'bout the lawn or the lean,
it's the only excuse we got to convene.
Nobody here actually wanna be alone,
the HOA's just a love language with a passive-aggressive tone.
Ree-Cardo memorize my flaws 'cause he memorize ME,
that's a man payin' ATTENTION, that's family, see.
So fine the fence, fine the bins, fine the raccoon thing too —
long as next Tuesday everybody come through.
[HOOK — everyone]
What's up, neighbour? (motion to ADJOURN to the grill!)
All in favor say lumpia, what's up
Whole block packed in a garage, paper cups
Puck it — pass the plate down, neighbour, what's up
(What's up, neighbour? What's up, neighbour?)
[OUTRO]
(Meeting adjourned — Ree-Cardo, sing us out, man—)
("Let me TELL you what's up…" *mic feedback* *applause*)
What's up, neighbour… same time next week?
…puck it. Bring a chair.

# What's Up Neighbour? — Lyrics (Version 3: Porch Light)
**Artist:** Beaddy West
**Track:** What's Up Neighbour? (V3 — the tender late-night version)
**Length target:** 3:00–3:30
---
```
TITLE: What's Up Neighbour? (Porch Light)
ARTIST: Beaddy West
[INTRO — crickets, distant karaoke fading, one porch light hum, ~10 bars]
(What's up… neighbour…)
(Everybody gone in… just the lights on the street…)
[HOOK — half-sung, soft]
What's up, neighbour? (the porch light's still on)
I'd be lyin' if I said I want you gone
Curtains closed but the block hum a song —
what's up, neighbour… I'm glad you're still 'round, c'mon.
(What's up, neighbour… what's up, neighbour…)
[VERSE 1 — Beaddy West]
It's quiet now. The grills gone cold, the trays gone home,
Ree-Cardo's clipboard sleepin', the cul-de-sac alone.
And I sit on the step with a plate auntie packed,
realize all this noise is the thing I'd miss in fact.
Ree-Cardo's gonna fine me again, I already know,
but his light come on at six when I'm scrapin' off snow.
He'd never SAY he likes me — that's not how he's built,
he just shows up with a shovel and a permanent guilt-trip, tilt.
That's love in a dialect I had to learn to read,
loud man, soft heart, plantin' a neighbor's seed.
[HOOK — soft]
What's up, neighbour? (the porch light's still on)
I'd be lyin' if I said I want you gone
Curtains closed but the block hum a song —
what's up, neighbour… I'm glad you're still 'round, c'mon.
[VERSE 2 — Beaddy West]
And Sultry Lady — number twenty-two — her light just clicked,
she caught me bein' a fool but somehow I ain't evicted from her wave.
Maybe the raccoon night wasn't the end, just a scene,
maybe she likes a man who chase chaos in between.
I'm-a knock with that casserole, gonna own the whole bit,
"I'm a disaster, but I'm a WARM one — let's split it."
And the Pamily light — that one never goes dark,
lola fall asleep to the TV, dog asleep in the yard.
They taught the whole block what "come, eat" really mean:
you ain't a stranger if you hungry, that's the family scene.
[BRIDGE — almost whispered]
We don't pick our neighbours. That's the beautiful part.
Random doors on a random street, and somehow — a heart.
A loud one, a sultry one, a lola with a mic,
a fool with a raccoon and a casserole tonight.
Puck the petty stuff. I'm keepin' every one.
Leave your porch light on — I'll leave on mine, hun.
[HOOK — full, warm, the block hums under]
What's up, neighbour? (every porch light on)
We're a mess of a family but the mess is where I belong
Bins still crooked, but the block sing along —
what's up, neighbour… I'm home when you're 'round, c'mon.
(What's up, neighbour… what's up, neighbour…)
[OUTRO — porch light hum, one last karaoke note far away]
(Night, Ree-Cardo… night, Sultry… night, auntie…)
What's up, neighbour…
(…thanks for the plate.)
…leave the light on.
