譯Pitchfork評10年代200首最佳單曲第100名:Jamie xx: “I Know There’s Gonna Be
翻譯:thesweetescape


Who knew the shy producer from whispery indie rock trio the xx could also throw a great party? Dancehall star Popcaan, trap royal Young Thug, and the sampled voices of ’70s a cappella group the Persuasions meet in “I Know There’s Gonna Be (Good Times),” a snare-rolling standout from Jamie xx’s 2015 solo debut,?In Colour. Popcaan’s deft sing-song amplifies the Caribbean roots of Jamie xx’s steel drums, while Thug giddily squeals through the song’s empty space: When he declares, “I’ma ride in that pussy like a stroller,” his glee is contagious. –Marc Hogan
誰能預(yù)想到來自輕語獨(dú)立搖滾三人樂隊(duì)the xx的內(nèi)斂制作人也能舉辦一場狂歡派對呢?配有舞廳藝人Popcaan,Trap皇室成員Young Thug與采樣自70年代阿卡貝拉組合the Persuasions歌曲“I Know There’s Gonna Be (Good Times),”的人聲,一首在Jamie xx個(gè)人出道專輯中脫穎而出的響弦鼓歌曲。Popcaan嫻熟的歌唱技藝更加深了Jamie xx槍鼓奏樂的加勒比音樂根源性。同時(shí)Young Thug在歌曲留白處酩酊尖叫:當(dāng)他唱道“I’ma ride in that pussy like a stroller,”時(shí),酣暢淋漓的快意直擊聽眾。?–Marc Hogan
