Empire State of Mind歌词
Empire State of Mind歌词
学习啦在线学习网 Empire State of Mind歌词lyrics《Empire State of Mind》是美国说唱大佬Jay-Z新专辑《The Blueprint 3》的第二只单曲，同R&B天后Alicia Keys合唱。
这首歌在9月8日通过iTune发行，不久专辑《The Blueprint 3》就登上了冠军宝座，而这首歌也空降了单曲榜第50位，大概有超过40000次的下载量。而在不久前举行的VMA上，Jay-Z作为压轴演出嘉宾同Alicia Keys现场表演了这首歌，令人争议的是说唱少女Lil MaMa在演出结束时登上了Jay-Z的舞台，她的举动也被媒体视为极不礼貌，这也是Kanye West之外的另一个话题。
这首《Empire State of Mind》采样了The Moments的经典名曲《Love on a Two-Way Street》，融入了电子以及管弦的元素，歌词内容主要为Jay-Z对其家乡——纽约的赞颂，再次表达了King of New York对家乡的热爱。姓名：Shawn Carter
