Neferneferuaten Nefertiti (/ˌnɛfərˈtiːti/) (ca. 1370 – ca. 1330 BC) was an Egyptian queen and the Great Royal Wife (chief consort) of Akhenaten, an Egyptian Pharaoh. Nefertiti and her husband were known for a religious revolution, in which they worshiped one god only, Aten, or the sun disc. Akhenaten and Nefertiti were responsible for the creation of a whole new religion which changed the ways of religion within Egypt. With her husband, she reigned at what was arguably the wealthiest period of Ancient Egyptian history. Some scholars believe that Nefertiti ruled briefly as Neferneferuaten after her husband's death and before the accession of Tutankhamun, although this identification is a matter of ongoing debate.
Nefertiti had many titles including Hereditary Princess (iryt-p`t); Great of Praises (wrt-hzwt); Lady of Grace (nbt-im3t), Sweet of Love (bnrt-mrwt); Lady of The Two Lands (nbt-t3wy); Main King’s Wife, his beloved (hmt-niswt-‘3t meryt.f); Great King’s Wife, his beloved (hmt-niswt-wrt meryt.f), Lady of all Women (hnwt-hmwt-nbwt); and Mistress of Upper and Lower Egypt (hnwt-Shm’w-mhw).
Nefertiti, the Beautiful One Has Come is an album by the Cecil Taylor Unit, recorded live at the Café Montmartre in Copenhagen, Denmark on November 23, 1962. This concert is a key item in Taylor's discography, demonstrating a much free-er approach to improvisation than his prior recordings for Candid, and for being nearly the complete recorded output of his period from 1962 to mid 1966.
Part of the concert was first released on LP as Live at the Café Montmartre, with more following on the LP Nefertiti, the Beautiful One Has Come. (Material was also issued as Innovations, Trance (Black Lion Records) and What's New.) The complete Café Montmartre recordings were finally released on Revenant Records in 1997. It is key documentation of the group's evolution into lengthy collective performances.
Saxophonist Albert Ayler also played on certain nights, but not on these recordings. The one extant recording of the quartet performance at Café Montmartre was released in 2004 on Holy Ghost, Revenant Records's 9-disc box of Albert Ayler recordings.
Nefertiti is the twentieth album by American jazz pianist Andrew Hill, recorded in 1976 and originally released on the Japanese East Wind label. The album features six of Hill's original compositions performed by a trio.
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and stated "although the music seems slightly more conservative than usual for a Hill set, the music is consistently stimulating".
[Intro: Nikke Kixx]
Uhh, yo Trouble, this is for you G
Some crazy shit, but I gotta do what I gotta do
[Verse One: Nikke Kixx]
Her booty bang bang, gotta keep the flow
so you know my girl Trouble
Always on the elevated motivated kind of level
Cause, down down to the ground as I feel when I heard the news
Guess I got the blues, bust the next move
I check, then I wreck, then I got upset
Couldn't fade the fact, she would never be back
Damn... I fell to my knees
and I asked the Lord please; then I boo-hooed
waitin for the big suit, so what's the next move, huh?
While I reminesce, while I reminesce, yeah
From show to show to show to show, ya know
My girl Trouble yup, always kept such a fat flow
Gotta get a grip, gotta get a grip, uhh
And I will always make you mine, in time
this is for you G, the T-to-the-R-to-the-O
to-the-U-to-the-B-to-the-L-E, rest in peace
And I'm kickin it for you in ninety-three
Here I go, here I go
[Verse Two: King Tee]
Not to get the eyballs drippin
But when They Reminesce Over You, I be trippin
It seems like two days back
We was chillin in the studio, peepin out a track
Talkin on the blahzay blah tip
Yo, here comes Trouble with the hit
Not too many could last
They flunked when Trouble talked class
They say God works mysterious
...but I'm curious
It's like a tasket a tisket, girl you ain't missed shit
Tryin to get a meal ticket and stay fit
I know you're upstairs chillin
And when you was here you made a killin
Rest easy in peace, don't be agitated
From King Tee, it's dedicated
[Chorus: Big Mac]
We're gonna miss you Trouble, we're gonna miss you [x8]
[Verse Three: Nefertiti]
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble
Back in the days, and ahh we used to rage and ahh
so put the pages, I fight back the tears and cry
Not singin no sad song,just lettin out my feelings
cause umm, Trouble's gone whether who's right or wrong
I'm comin at cha
Ya see what I mean, it's left to me to pave the way
I walk the walk and steady leavin back my state of mind
Tryin to recreate the scene and wonderin why
Call Motown, let em know we doin a Trouble song
The posse's deep we growin stronger than stronger than strong
It's a deep thang, if you can't hang, don't try to swang
You're not able to see you could never be down with me
We're doin a song to blow our horns, yo it's not to mourn
Consider me bein born, but over your death I'm torn
So good everlasting, I'll shout it out
I'm thinkin of past things you said that helped and watched me out
West coast mobbin, niggaz that thought that we was nothin
Pooh makes funky tracks it's the chronic so keep on puffin it
Teela's got That Triflin Album that them niggaz be lovin
Yo-Yo's still real loco, gettin them speedin tickets
And kickin them funky lyrics
I'm keepin the vibes alive, I gotta keep them vibes alive
I hope you watch me strive.. the rest of the time alive
I keep the spirit in my hand, I hope the record shall slam
Damn, I'm thinkin about Trouble, MC Trouble
