基本介紹
Ice Cube,歌詞,
Ice Cube
作為美國洛杉磯著名說唱組合N.W.A的核心成員之一，Ice Cube也是該組合中最早宣布單飛而謀求個人發展的成員。在離開N.W.A組合之後，Ice Cube逐漸成長為美國Hip-Hop音樂界最優秀同時也是最具爭議的歌手之一。Ice Cube在他個人發展之後的專輯中表現出了更為尖銳的政治和社會觀點，這也使得他頗為引人注目的前兩張個人專輯《AmeriKKKa??s Most Wanted》和《Death Certificate》毀譽參半。後來，Ice Cube開始和Cypress Hill等後輩說唱樂團合作，其本人的影響力雖略有下降，但Ice Cube在整個美國說唱界的地位卻從未改變。在上世紀90年代，Ice Cube一直都是最耀眼的說唱歌手之一。與眾多家境貧寒，從小便浪跡街頭的說唱歌手相比，Ice Cube的家境算是比較好的了。原名O??Shea Jackson的Ice Cube從小生活在洛杉磯的中南部，父母都在加州大學洛杉磯分校（UCLA）工作，而少年時期的Ice Cube也一直都是個好孩子。到了上中學的時候，Ice Cube才開始創作Rap，而他在這個時期創作的歌曲包括了與搭檔 Sir Jinx合作寫出的《Boyz-n-the Hood》。隨著創作水平的不斷提高，由Ice Cube領銜的二人說唱組合“CIA”開始在Dr.Dre舉辦的排隊上演出。很快，Ice Cube就通過Dr.Dre結識了當時還在HBO組合的Eazy-E。隨後，Eazy-E決定離開HBO。事實上，在這個時候，Eazy-E，Dr.Dre和Ice Cube三人已經構成了N.W.A組合的雛形。1987年，Ice Cube前往菲尼克斯學習建築。1988年，在拿到了一年制的學位之後，Ice Cube重新回到了洛杉磯。而Ice Cube的這次回歸正是時候，因為他正好趕上了N.W.A組合首張專輯《Straight Outta Compton》的錄製。最終，《Straight Outta Compton》在1988年末發行並成為1989年美國地下說唱圈中的熱門專輯。專輯歌詞中的極端內容得到了各界的關注，其中最引人注目的是美國聯邦調查局（FBI）對本張專輯的關注。由於Ice Cube和N.W.A的經紀人有著很嚴重的分歧，因此他在1989年末的時候選擇了離隊。
歌詞
Just waking up in the morning gotta thank god
I don't know but today seems kinda odd
No barking from the dogs, no smog
And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
Finally got a call from a girl wanna dig out
Hooked it up on later as i hit the do'
Thinking will i live, another twenty-fo'
I gotta go cause i got me a drop top
And if i hit the switch, i can make the ass drop
Had to stop at a red light
Looking in my mirror not a jacker in sight
And everything is alright
I got a beep from kim and she can fuck all night
Called up the homies and i'm askin y'all
Which court, are y'all playin basketball?
Get me on the court and i'm trouble
Last week fucked around and got a triple double
Freaking brothers everyway like m.j.
I can't believe, today was a good day
Drove to the pad and hit the showers
Didn't even get no static from the cowards
Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me
Saw the police and they rolled right past me
No flexin, didn't even look in a niggaz direction
As i ran the intersection
Went to $hort dog's house, they was watchin yo! mtv raps
What's the haps on the craps
Shake em up, shake em up, shake em up, shake em
Roll em in a circle of niggaz and watch me break em
With the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven
Seven even back do lil'joe
I picked up the cash flow
Then we played bones, and i'm yellin domino
Plus nobody i know got killed in south central l.a.
Today was a good day
Left my niggaz house paid
Picked up a girl been tryin to fuck since the twelve grade
It's ironic, i had the brew she had the chronic
The lakers beat the supersonics
I felt on the big fat fanny
Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny
And my dick runs deep so deep so deep
Put her ass to sleep
Woke her up around one
She didn't hesitate, to call ice cube the top gun
Drove her to the pad and i'm coasting
Took another sip of the potion hit the three-wheel motion
I was glad everything had worked out
Dropped her ass off, then i chirped out
Today was like one of those fly dreams
Didn't even see a berry flashing those high beams
No helicopter looking for a murder
Two in the morning got the fat burger
Even saw the lights of the goodyear blimp
And it read ice cube's a pimp
Drunk as hell but no throwing up
Half way home and my pager still blowing up
Today i didn't even have to use my a.k.
I got to say it was a good day.
Hey wait, wait a minute fool
Stop the shit
What the fuck am i thinking about?
