"Say So," the hit single by American singer and rapper Doja Cat, was released on her second studio album, "Hot Pink," in 2019. The song is renowned for its vibrant blend of pop, disco, and funk elements, encapsulating a retro feel that taps into the nostalgia of music from the late 1970s and early 1980s. This track experienced a surge in popularity partly due to its viral success on TikTok, where it became synonymous with a dance challenge created by user Haley Sharpe. The song's catchy groove and memorable chorus helped it secure the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in May 2020, becoming Doja Cat's first song to top the chart. Its enduring appeal is evident in its Platinum certification by the RIAA.

The music video for "Say So," directed by Hannah Lux Davis, features a visual style that complements its retro sound, embracing a 1970s aesthetic with vibrant costumes, settings, and choreography. The video further solidified Doja Cat's distinctive artistic style, blending fashion and music into a unique narrative that echoes the pop culture of the disco era. The track received critical acclaim, praised for its production, songwriting, and Doja Cat's vocal performance, highlighting her versatility as an artist. Its production credits include Lukasz Gottwald, famously known as Dr. Luke, who contributed to its polished and infectious sound. The song encapsulates themes of empowerment and flirtation, with lyrics emphasizing love, attraction, and the importance of clear communication in relationships.

Transitioning from the contemporary success of "Say So," we re-imagine its melody through the retro soundscape of the SEGA Genesis, utilizing the Sonic the Hedgehog soundfont. The SEGA Genesis, also known as the Sega Mega Drive outside North America, was released in the late 1980s and quickly became iconic due to its advanced graphics and unique sound capabilities. Central to its sound was the Yamaha YM2612 FM synthesis chip, which enabled it to create rich, multilayered music and sound effects characteristic of that era. Sonic the Hedgehog, one of the most famous games developed for the console, had music compositions that have crossed into pop culture, known for their catchy melodies and engaging rhythms.

The use of the Sonic the Hedgehog soundfont to cover "Say So" involves recreating the original track's spirited disco vibe within the limitations and distinctive timbre of 16-bit technology. This soundfont captures the essence of nostalgia by blending modern pop music with classic gaming sounds, offering a unique auditory experience that pays homage to two influential cultural spheres. The reinterpretation into SEGA Genesis format maintains the song's core while introducing listeners to the characteristic chiptune aesthetic that defined an era of video gaming.
