(Come On)
I'am Houdini, i'am Houdini
I'am Houdini
(I'am Houdini!)
The lyrics to Schoolboy & Whiiite's song "Houdini" are fairly simple and repetitive, with the repeated lines of "I am Houdini" serving as a sort of mantra or declaration of identity. The name Houdini, of course, refers to Harry Houdini, the famous magician and escape artist of the early 20th century. By adopting this name for himself, the artist is possibly making a statement about his own artistry and skill, as well as his ability to escape the limitations of his genre or industry.
Additionally, the use of Houdini's name may have other connotations as well. Houdini was known for his daring stunts and physical feats, often placing himself in dangerous or seemingly impossible situations for the sake of entertainment. This sense of risk and excitement is echoed in the high-energy, fast-paced sound of the song, with its heavy beats and electronic flourishes.
Perhaps most importantly, however, the repetition of "I am Houdini" can also be seen as a form of self-affirmation or self-motivation. By declaring himself to be Houdini, the artist is asserting his own power and ability to perform at a high level, even in challenging circumstances. It's a reminder to himself (and to listeners) to stay focused, stay confident, and stay in control – just like the great Harry Houdini himself.
