Vincent Price
Vincent Price是《Thriller》里的说唱(虽然更应该算作是念白,但依然属于说唱)。1911年五月生于美国,1993年去世。著名恐怖片演员和配音。我们熟悉的角色包括《剪刀手爱德华》里爱德华的创造者,以及《地球上最后一个人》中博士,以及老版《恐怖蜡像馆》里的Henry Jarrod教授。
在“Thriller”里的说唱词:
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorise your neighbourhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse's shell
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller
Heavy D
《Jam》一曲里的说唱歌手,原名Dwight Myers,1967出生于牙买加,既是说唱歌手,又是演员,舞者,歌曲创作者,并最终成了一个唱片公司老板,他有个乐团叫The Boyz。曾和新JACK摇摆舞曲之父Teddy Riley合作,后者是MJ《危险》专集的制作人。他可以把R&B、雷鬼、舞曲、和流行的元素融合一体,他的歌曲常常登上R&B榜的前十名。他在奥斯卡提名的《苹果酒屋法则》里也有出演(1999)。
在“Jam”里的说唱词:
Jam jam here comes the man
Hot damn the big boy stands movin' up a hand
Makin' funky tracks with my man Michael Jackson
Smooth criminal that's the man Mike's so relaxed
Mingle mingle jingle in the jungle
Bum rushed the door
3 and 4's in a bundle
Execute the plan
First I cooled like a fan
Got with Janet
Then with guy
Now with Michael
'Cause it ain't hard to
Wreckx-N-Effect
Wreckx-N-Effect是《She Drives Me Wild》里的说唱歌手。1992年以一曲《Rump Shaker》获得巨大成功。Markell Riley是这个说唱组合里的一员,他是超级制作人Teddy Riley的兄弟。其他成员包括Aquil Davidson和Brandon Mitchell。但Mitchell其实在专集发行前就已经死于1990年的一次枪击。在单曲专集买了上百万张后,这个组合在1996年再度昙花一现了一下。
在“She Drives Me Wild”里的说唱词:
Please, no, keep back
I can't take it
Your drivin' me wild
I might not make it
You got me lookin' like buckwheat
Whaoh!
Hair pulled every which way but me
Far from a delucilla,
Your lips are deadly
Your walkin' soft, still I hear the medley
Uh, she bought me timberland boots
Cramped my style
She drives me wild
L.T.B.
L.T.B.是《Black or White》里的说唱歌手,但应该是个非常名不见经传的人,都找不到他的资料。继续查证中。
在“Black or White”里的说唱词:
Protection
For gangs, clubs
And nations
Causing grief in
Human relations
It's a turf war
On a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places
Faces
Where your blood comes from
Is where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life
Being a color
The Notorious BIG
The Notorious BIG是《This Time Around》和《Unbreakable》里的说唱歌手。说唱界传奇巨星。这都不认识您就别听什么说唱了。
在“This Time Around”里的说唱词:
Listen, I've got problems of my own
Flashin' cameras, taps on my phone
Even in my home I ain't safe as I should be
Things always missin'
Maybe it could be my friends
They ain't friends if they robbin' me
Stoppin' me from makin' a profit, see
Apology shallow like the ocean
I guess I'll resort to gun totin'
If I was dead broke and smokin'
I'd probably be by my lonesome
I'm a killer nigga I ain't jokin'
Endo smoke got me choked and I'm hopin'
The fool comes slippin'
So I could blow'em open
This time around
I changed up my flow
Got rid of the rocks
Got pits by the door
I've raised other peoples to watch my back
Stay away from strangers
So I won't slack
And I know my nigga Mike like that
Baby
在“Unbreakable”里的说唱词,由于2001年这位已经去世好久了,所以MJ和制作人选的是一个他没有发表的录音片段,合并进了“Unbreakable”:
I'm off to remembering my D.C. women
Bringin' in ten G minimums to condos with elevators in 'em
Vehicles with televisions in 'em
Watch they entourage turn yours to just mirages
Disappearing acts, strictly nines and macs
Killers be serial, Copperfield material
My dreams is vivid, work hard to live it
Any place I visit I got land there
How can players stand there and say I sound like them, hello
Push wigs back and push six Coupes that's yellow
Plus clips that expand from hand to elbow
Spray up your Day's Inn, any 'telle you in
Crack braggin, sick of braggin, how my mink be draggin'
Desert ease street sweeper inside the beamer wagon
I rely on Bed-Stuy to shut it down if I die
Put that on my diamond bezel, you messin' with the devil
What, what, what!
Shaquille O'Neal
NBA超级中锋“大鲨鱼”奥尼尔是《2 Bad》里的说唱歌手。他当年加盟洛杉矶湖人队的时候就是看上了可以在这个地方玩一玩他的第二职业或爱好——说唱。他的其他成就?去NBA查查就好。比如今年他所在的热队又拿到了美国篮球职业联赛总冠军。他和Michael Jackson一直关系不错。
在“2 Bad”里的说唱词:
Life's about a dream
I'm really undefeated when MJ is on my team, theme
Reality brings forth realizm
It's the man of steel organizm, twizm
Not from the prizm, take charge like manilla
Nine five Shaq represent with the thrilla
Grab my crotch, twist my knee, then I'm through
Mike's bad, I'm bad
Who are you
Fats
Fats是《Heartbreaker》和《Invincible》里的说唱歌手。同样是个非常名不见经传的人。Michael是打算培养新人的。只不过不知道这个新人现在还在哪个街区晃荡呢……
在“Heartbreaker”里的说唱词:
Feel good, huh?
I thought it was love but it's a game huh?
When you're dealin' with emotion it's a pain, ma
Take caution when you're dealin with a stranger
I can't changer her now
Heart burnin', well placed and you'll see
It won't heal from Pepsid AC
Ball hard player, she a star player?
I need Liz cracker, I ain't seen a heartbreaker, c'mon
在“Invincible”里的说唱词:
Yo, mommy stop with the frontin'
I'm real with mine
All the things that I promise I'll fulfil in time
Chains and a bracelet you got the realest shines
How many trips you'll have jetlag
And you'll still be fine
He can drink but his money ain't long enough
He can spend but his game ain't strong enough
Now the way you resistin'
This ain't cool
It's like nothin' seems to worry her
She's invincible
Rod Serling
Rod Serling是《Threatened》里的……旁白人。这个不算说唱,因为本身这段旁白音频就是从惊悚电视节目《迷离境界》里截出来的。效果是想弄的跟《Thriller》一样。Rod Serling为美国著名的剧作人,曾6次荣获艾美奖最佳剧本奖,主持《迷离境界》和《夜间画廊》等节目。
在“Threatened”里的说唱词:
The unknown monster is about to embark
From a far corner, out of the dark
A nightmare, that's the case
Never Neverland, that's the place
This particular monster can read minds
Be in two places at the same time
This is judgement night, execution, slaughter
The devil, ghosts, this monster is torture
You can be sure of one thing, that's fate
A human presence that you feel is strange
A monster that you can see disappear
A monster, the worst thing to fear
目前有消息说,MJ在未来可能会和DJ WK、50 Cents等、甚至联系了痞子阿姆合作(目前是谣言无法证实)。 |
