An Entity of Type: song, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

"America Is My Home" is a 1968 single by James Brown. It was intended as a patriotic song written by Brown and Hayward E. Moore, recorded in 1967 in response to increasing criticism of the Vietnam War by black leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Stokely Carmichael. Brown speaks rather than sings the words of the song over an instrumental backing. The lyrics affirm that "America is still the best country, without a doubt" and claim "black and white, they may fight, but if the enemy come we'll get together and run 'em out of sight." Brown delayed the song's release until the summer of 1968 when he thought the timing was right. It charted #13 R&B and #52 Pop. He followed it later that year with "Say It Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud".

  • "America Is My Home" é creditado, algumas vezes, como o primeiro rap gravado. É uma canção patriótica escrita por James Brown e Hayward E. Moore. Brown a gravou em 1967 em resposta às crescentes críticas à Guerra do Vietnam por líderes negros tais como Martin Luther King, Jr. e Stokely Carmichael. Brown apenas fala, sem cantar, sobre uma base instrumental. A letra afirma que "A América é ainda o melhor país, sem dúvida" e alega que "negros e brancos, eles devem lutar, mas se o inimigo chegar, nós nos juntaremos e poremos eles pra correr". Brown atrasou o lançamento da canção até o verão de 1968 quando achou o tempo certo. Alcançou o número 13 da parada R&B e número 52 da parada Pop. (pt)
