Year: 1994
EAN/UPS: 0724383980222
Media type: CD

Born Dead is the second album released by Body Count. Among other tracks, the album features a cover of Billy Roberts' "Hey Joe," performed in the style of Jimi Hendrix' recording of the song, as originally featured on the Are You Experienced album. Body Count's cover of the song was first featured on the Hendrix tribute album Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix. The songs sound even darker and heavier than on the first album, and Ice T still chooses provocative themes. Here he doesn't talk about killing a police officer but deals with drugs ("Street Lobotomy"), sex ("Who Are You") and violence ("Necessary Evil") in an explicit way, as well as more standard heavy-metal subject matter like war ("Shallow Graves") and serial killers ("Last Breath"). The track "Born Dead" reflects the general mood expressed on the record, and it is the most constructed song. And more significantly, it is about poverty and racism, (as in "Master Of Revenge"). The song title "Killin' Floor" refers to the mosh pit, and is mostly instrumental. In the liner notes, Ice T dedicates the album "to all the people of color throughout the entire world; Asian, Latino, Native American, Hawaiian, Italian, Indian, Persian, African, Aboriginal and any other nationality that white supremists would love to see born dead." Born Dead peaked at #74 on the Billboard 200.
