}} ''1977'' is the fifth studio album by Latin hip hop artist Ana Tijoux, released March 9, 2010 on Nacional Records. ''1977'' is Tijoux's second solo release and fifth overall album released. The album received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album. Ana Tijoux's song "1977" was featured in AMC's Breaking Bad, Comedy Central's Broad City and the EA Sports video game, FIFA 11. ==Background== In October 2009, La Oveja Negra in Chile released ''1977'', her second solo album, with the name coming from the year Tijoux was born. It is a return to her Hip-Hop roots, an homage to the "golden age of Hip-Hop", and largely auto-biographical, exploring mature themes from her own life, from the death of a close friend to having a creative crises, friendship and bad luck, amongst others. It is simple and straight to the point, this being emphasized by her leaving behind a lot of the singing she had been doing previously in other more pop collaborations, and concentrating on rap, both in Spanish and French. After years of sharing the spotlight with her group, collaborating with other artists, and trying to find her way as a solo artist, Tijoux finally arrived in her own right; a raw, direct, mature MC. Recorded between May and September 2009, the new album was produced by Hordatoj, Foex y Tee (of the label Potoco Discos), together with Habitación Del Pánico. Guests on the record include the saxophonist Agustín Moya with whom she worked with in Aluzinati, Andrés Celis, Solo Di Medina, Bubaseta, Stailok from the group Movimiento Original, DJ Dacel, Quique Neira from Godwana, Cómo Asesinar A Felipes, and the Detroit-based MC Invincible, whom she met over MySpace and did a virtual collaboration for the song "Sube". The album and its first single "1977" were an immediate hit in the underground rap circles of Chile, where she was welcomed back after a bit of a stray. The record was amongst the top 10 of 2009 for the blog "World Hip-Hop Market", and it was soon picked up by the US-based Latin Alternative label; Nacional Records, who released it in April 2010. She was invited to attend the prestigious South By South West Music Festival in Austin, TX, in March 2010, and from there went on to her first ever North American tour. The single '1977' gained further attention when it featured in the EA Sports video game, ''FIFA 11''. The same song was again in the spotlight in 2011 when it was used in Shotgun - the fifth episode of season 4 of AMC's ''Breaking Bad''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1977 (Ana Tijoux album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
