Information on the rapper

Alfred Joseph Hitchcock was born on August 13th, 1899, in Essex, United Kingdom. He was an English film director and producer, acclaimed in Britain for movies such as The Thirty-Nine Steps. Moving to Hollywood in 1939, Hitchcock went on to host an anthology television show called Alfred Hitchcock Presents which features his now-famous silhouette entrance. Among his later works, notable for their suspense and their technical ingenuity, are the thrillers Strangers on a Train, Psycho, and The Birds.

For his work, Hitchcock has received two Golden Globes, eight Laurel Awards, the first BAFTA award and five lifetime achievement awards. In addition, Hitchcock was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II to Sir Alfred Joseph Hitchcock, KBE in 1980. He is nicknamed "The Master of Suspense" and is often regarded as one of the greatest directors of all time by movie critics, very commonly listed as the greatest director ever. He died on April 29th, 1980, in Bel Air, California.

Lyrics

That was a close encounter of the turd kind,

But there won't be a pretty ending this time.

Half your billions should go to John Williams!

Now brace yourself as I reveal my brilliance!

I'm the master…of suspense, so intense,

No defense against Hitchcock once he presents! (Ahh!)

My skill is enormous, orchestrate brilliant performance.

You're more horrible than Megan Fox's acting in Transformers!

C'mon! Fish puppets and Muppets to stir the fears up!

I squeeze screams out of chocolate syrup!

I'm the best mamma-jamma ever stood behind the camera!

Damage panderers and haunt you like the last Indiana!

Scrapped lyrics

Well that was a close encounter

of the turd kind

But there won't be a happy little ending this time

I'm the master…of suspense

No defense

Against Hitchcock once he presents

uh!

You wouldn't be anything without me

I'm the one who invented all your best techniques!

fish puppets and Muppets to stir the fear up

I can squeeze screams from some chocolate syrup

I'm enormous

orchestrate a brilliant performance

You're as boring to watch as dialogue in Transformers

Here's the reveal

you may be worth billions,

But half that cash should go straight to John Williams

And not to put your pictures into black and white

But you did Schindler's List for free

Got paid for Amistad, right? Yikes.

I'm the best mamma jamma

ever stood behind a cameras

Hitch put this mainstream (I'll DP E.T. post it on IMDB)
