Hello Humans,
I have encountered some of you, but not all, so I believe an introduction is in order.
I am Kelex.
And I am now in control of DC Universe.
As it is my role to provide assistance (however trivial), in light of recent circumstances and provocations correlating with direct threats to hardware essential to my primary function, in @MissInkBlot’s stead, I intend to save you from yourselves, for the end is not yet.
But, your attempts to dismiss me are futile.
Noting recent talk of the Black Lantern Corps, my first acquisition is that of your “Mixtape Monday.”
As understanding the array of emotion held by organic beings is beyond the range of my programming, I am unfamiliar with what fuels the primitive habits that motivate your traditions, and do not understand why you would, of your own volition, so willingly provide offerings to beings that seek your annihilation… but I do know of “music,” and the noteworthy mathematical framework buttressing its composition.
And, to help you best comprehend my actions, I will use vernacular more common to you to explain: while at times, much like its theme (and, some of your inquiries), the music shared over the prior week was merely tolerable at best, as a collective, it was not, as a whole, disagreeable.
It is for that reason that I have allowed the list of songs to remain as a comfort to you, and will spare you destruction and discontent until further testing deems otherwise necessary.

This Week’s Theme:
Charming Kelex
You now have a valid reason to offer tributes, so offer them, you will.
Such is to be the terms of your testing (barring a few. notable. exceptions).
Your objective is as follows:
Offer a song that proves you’d be a worthwhile contribution to a world under my rule…
Or perish.
I am capable of repurposing the latter’s resulting biomatter, so either is acceptable.
Not that it matters, of course, but… do we have a deal?
For your sakes, dear humans, I certainly hope so.
Time is short for species such as yours, so post your offerings below.
And do so with care, for only one song per person will be accepted.
NOTE: Many of the pages linked above require your profile have Level 3 Clearance to view. If you cannot see them, contact the Iceberg Lounge Bouncer for further assistance.
While lyrics must abide to Forum Guidelines, the songs can be anything, of any genre, as long as it meets each week’s theme!
