"The Payback" is a funk song by James Brown, the title track from his 1973 album of the same name. The song's lyrics, originally written by trombonist and bandleader Fred Wesley but heavily revised by Brown himself soon before it was recorded, concern the revenge he plans to take against a man who betrayed him. The song is notable for its sparse, open arrangement and its use of wah-wah guitar – a relative rarity in Brown's previous funk recordings. Released as a two-part single (featuring a radio announcer at the beginning of part one) in February 1974, it was the first in an unbroken succession of three singles by Brown to reach #1 on the R&B charts that year – the last chart-toppers of his career. It also peaked at number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was his second, and final, single

  • "The Payback" é uma canção funk de James Brown, e o título do álbum de mesmo nome de 1973. A letra da canção, originalmente escrita pelo trombonista e bandleader Fred Wesley mas revisada pelo próprio Brown pouco antes de ser gravada, fala de sua preocupação com a vingança que ele planeja contra um homem que o traiu. A canção é notável por seus arranjos e uso do wah-wah com guitarra - uma relativa raridade nas gravações anteriores de Brown. Lançada como single de duas partes (apresenta um radialista no começo da parte um) em fevereiro de 1974, foi o primeiro de um sucessão de três singles de Brown a alcançar o número 1 na parada R&B naquele ano - as últimas canções a alcançar o topo das paradas em sua carreira. Também alcançou o número 26 da parada Billboard Hot 100. Foi seu segundo, e últi (pt)
