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

  Home of that boy Biggie

  Say what up to Ta-ta

  Still sipping Mai Tais

学习啦在线学习网   Sitting courtside

  Knicks and Nets give me high-5
