dbo:abstract | "Know the Ledge" – originally on the soundtrack of the film Juice as "Juice (Know the Ledge)" – is a 1992 single by hip-hop duo Eric B. & Rakim. The film's theme song, also released on the duo's 1992 album Don't Sweat the Technique, it features a distinctive sample from Nat Adderley's 1968 hit "Rise, Sally, Rise". "Know the Ledge" showcases Rakim's storytelling ability, sharing a first-person narrative of a neighborhood thug and drug dealer forced to come to grips with his violent and reckless lifestyle. Among Eric B. & Rakim's final hits as a duo, it was one of the most successful singles from the Juice soundtrack. 50 Cent told NME that the song was the one that made him want to be a rapper: "They were painting a picture of where I lived and all the moves you needed to make in order to live on the streets there. It was the law of the jungle out there." (en) "Know the Ledge" – originalmente na do filme Juice como "Juice (Know the Ledge)" – é um canção de 1992 da dupla americana de hip hop Eric B. & Rakim. A canção tema do filme, também lançada no álbum da dupla de 1992 Don't Sweat the Technique, contém samples do sucesso de Nat Adderley de 1968 "Rise, Sally, Rise". "Know the Ledge" demonstra a habilidade de Rakim em contar estórias, compartilhando uma narrativa em primeira pessoa de um bandido da vizinhança e traficante de drogas forçado a enfrentar seu estilo de vida violento e imprudente. O rapper 50 Cent contou à NME que a canção foi uma das que o fez querer ser um rapper: "Eles estavam pintando um quadro do South Jamaica no Queens onde eu vivia e tudo que você precisava fazer para viver naquelas ruas. Era a por lá." (pt) |
