Helen: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning English, I’m Helen.
    Chen Li: 大家好，我是陳鸝。
    Helen: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.
    Chen Li: 是的，英語是一種十分定式化的語言，所以了解現(xiàn)實生活中人們經(jīng)常使用的固定表達和俚語自然就很有用了。
    Helen: Today’s word is gangsta rap.
    Chen Li: 我想我們還是將這個詞分開來講吧，你剛才說gangster，意思是強盜，匪徒，英文的拼寫是 G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R。
    Helen: And today we are going to talk about gangster rap – but you will often see gangster spelt g.a.n.g.s.t.a. There’s a slight difference.
    Chen Li: 大多數(shù)人都知道 rap music，也就是說唱樂，但是什么是gangsta rap？從字面意義上怎么來解釋呢？
    Helen: So gangsta rap sounds like typical rap or hip hop music?
    Chen Li: 聽起來就像典型的說唱樂，或者是 hip hop 音樂。
    Helen: But the topic of the song will focus on the lifestyles of criminals or gangsters.
    Chen Li: 很多有名的美國說唱樂歌手都來自犯罪頻繁的地區(qū)，他們的歌詞也大都反映歹徒們的生活方式。

    Chen Li: 是的，我也迷惑這種宣揚暴力和大男子主義的方式會有什么可取之處。
    Helen: Oh well - that’s all for today’s programme all about gangsta rap.
    Chen Li: 是的，有關(guān)匪徒說唱樂。
