  • Now Jeanie, you listen to Hip-hop music.
  • 珍妮,你听嘻哈音乐吗?
  • Yeah.
  • 听。
  • Right. Actually me too. I like Hip-hop when I run.
  • 好。我也听。我跑步的时候喜欢听嘻哈音乐。
  • Do you think that Hip-hop music negatively influences people?
  • 你认为嘻哈音乐会对人们产生不良影响吗?
  • Do you think it should be censored or should be controlled in anyway?
  • 你认为这种音乐应该进行删改吗,或者应该进行管控吗?
  • I feel like it has a tendency to negatively influence people,
  • 我认为嘻哈音乐有会对人们产生不良影响的倾向,
  • mostly because the people it influences aren't very strong or very confident in themselves.
  • 受影响的大部分是那种不太强壮、不太自信的人。
  • They feel like that in order to be something they have to do what the people who made money are doing.
  • 他们会认为要想变得强壮就要像能挣大钱的人那样做。
  • For them it looks like the easy way out.
  • 对他们来说这是摆脱困境最容易的办法。
  • For example if you're stuck in poverty
  • 举例来说,如果你无法摆脱贫穷,
  • and you look at the TV and you look at people who are exactly like you, who are stuck in poverty
  • 这时你看到电视上有和你一样陷入贫穷的人,
  • and suddenly all they did was, they did gang banging and stuff like that,
  • 而他们实施了团伙暴力犯罪行为,
  • and then they rapped about it, and they got money, it's like Wow, why don't I do that.
  • 并在说唱中讲述了这件事,然后挣到了钱,这时你就会想:哇,我为什么不这么做呢。
  • And I have to build up this hard image so that I can make money. You know, get to the top.
  • 我也要建立这种强大的形象,这样我也能挣到钱了。你知道,就是那种飞黄腾达。
  • So you're saying part of the problem is for people to aspire to be a popular Hip-hop artist,
  • 你的意思是说立志成为流行嘻哈歌手的人
  • they actually have to do some type of criminal activity first?
  • 要先实施犯罪行为吗?
  • Yeah, it's the image that you get because in all the music they're rapping about what they did.
  • 对,这就是你从嘻哈乐中得到的形象,因为他们的说唱都是在讲他们曾经做过的事。
  • You know, and if you ask somebody later on, oh did you really do that?
  • 你知道,如果你问他们,你真的做过这件事吗?
  • and they say, Oh, no. It was just for a song then you know, people are all Oh, you're not cool.
  • 他们说:不,没有。这只是首歌而已,那人们的反应就是:你一点也不不酷。
  • You know, you want to rap about something that you've actually been through.
  • 所以你的说唱要讲你真正经历过的事情。
  • It's a really, you know, Yeah I did this. I'm really hard. You know. Otherwise you're just, you're just speaking.
  • 这样别人问你时你就能回答:对,我做过。我非常冷酷。否则你就只是说说而已。
  • Well, do you think that the music should be censored in anyway?
  • 那你认为应该对嘻哈乐进行删改吗?
  • I think to a point it should be, just as far as kids, children don't need to hear this stuff all the time
  • 我觉得应该删剪,这样至少孩子们不会经常在歌中听到这种事情,
  • and you know, unfortunately what you get, even if they censor it in the stores and say Oh, it's, this is not for kids,
  • 不幸的是,即使一些店铺去掉了不良内容,而且表示这不是孩子们听的,
  • or you know, stuff like that, you're going to get in these areas,
  • 但是你也会在其他地方听到,
  • people driving down the street in their big expensive cars blasting this kind of music,
  • 人们开着昂贵的汽车在街上兜风时会大声播放这种音乐,
  • so the kids are going to hear it anyway, so I don't feel that there is a real way to censor it.
  • 所以孩子们还是会听到,所以我认为需要采取实质的方法进行删剪。
  • Yeah, I guess this problem is always going to be around.
  • 嗯,我想这个问题一直存在。
  • Yeah.
  • 没错。
