A challenge for hip-hop heads...??.......2006-09-13

Does anyone know what the tune playing in A-Wax's car is when they drive into the underground car-park to find a car to steal?? I tried hard to make out some lyrics and search it on the web but I've had no luck so far.....any clues anybody???

Great soundtrack to a great movie.......2006-07-16

If you're reading this, you probably know what a great movie "Menace II Society" is. This soundtrack fits the movie so well, it's also great. You need not see the movie to appreciate it, I was digging the soundtrack long before I actually ever saw the movie. The soundtrack is a great profile of 1993 hip hop and R&B, and it contains music from artists of both coasts. There's a lot of star power here, with A-list names like DJ Quik, Boogie Down Productions, and MC Eiht, and as with any soundtrack, there are some you've never heard of. All the music is good though, it's got a variety of music, all of which I like, and I recommend the "Menace II Society" soundtrack to fans of music from the time period.

The first song is Spice 1's "N**ga Gots No Heart", a hard-hitting rap song from the Bay Area great. It has nice production with synths and a funky style, and his rhymes are tough as nails. The best song here by far is MC Eiht's "Streiht Up Menace", a song I consider a classic. Eiht tells the story of a boy born in the ghetto and his problems getting out, it's got a sad ending. It's a very emotional track and the strings-and-drums production are also beautiful. I haven't seen this track anywhere else, so the soundtrack is almost worth it just for that song. The Ant Banks song "Packin' A Gun" has nice, bass heavy production and his flow here is nice to listen to. Kenya Gruv's love song "Top of the World" is here, it's nicely produced but it's not one I listen to too much. The Too Short cut "Only the Strong Will Survive" is a great song from the rap legend, I think Too Short was in his prime when this song was made and it sounds great. Mz. Kilo's funny song "All Over a Ho" is another highlight. Da Lench Mob, a kind of forgotten group from the early 90s, have a song called "Guerillas Ain't Gangstas", a pretty catchy hip hop song, the lyrics are interesting. Female rapper Smooth Ace contributes with "You Been Played", a track I find entertaining, I like the chorus. Brand Nubian's "Lick Dem MFs" is okay, it's a decent song but not the best we've seen from the legendary group. I think the same of Pete Rock & CL Smooth's "Death Becomes You" featuring the YGs. Pete and CL are maybe my favorite group of all time, and this song, while pretty good and well produced, doesn't really fit their style. The slow jam "Unconditional Love" by Hi-Five is excellent, it's too bad I've never heard from these guys again. One of KRS-One's last songs under the Boogie Down Productions moniker is here, "'P' is Still Free". It's an entertaining song with a good beat, the chorus makes me laugh. The Cutthroats show a crazy style on "Stop Lookin' At Me", it reminds me of an Onyx song. Even an early UGK song is here, the laidback "Pocket Full of Stones". The legend DJ Quik is included with "Can't F**k Wit A N**ga". It uses a sample from an earlier song of his, it's a nice song overall. The soundtrack finishes with an edited version of the first song.

This is a really great soundtrack, one of my favorites. As with any soundtrack, it has a lot of variety, so if you're looking for something more focused, this might not be for you. I feel that 1993 was one of hip hop's greatest years, and the music from the time is some of my favorite. I recommend this album to fans of the music of this period, because I enjoy it a lot.

Does anyone know.......2006-06-15

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knew that song that is playing in the begginin of the movie just before kane's dad shoots that guy..its not rap but its oldschool

Old-school at its best!.......2006-01-29

I'm a fan of hip-hop, but I must admit that I was a late-starter, so I'm not very familiar with the early stuff. However, according to my brother, who is very knowledgeable of hip-hop artists and music, said that this CD is very early, old-school-type stuff but that it's very good. And I coudn't agree more! The songs seem to start off slow at first, but then you realize that that's the "groove" of the music and it doesn't take long before you're "into it". Especially in conjunction with the movie, the lyrics of the songs are thought-provoking and sometimes intense, and you really get the sense of what these people went through in their lives. That's what draws me to hip-hop - it's either very REAL, or very fun and entertaining - or both!

missing one piece.......2005-10-17

Great soundtrack except for one song they left out. At the start of the movie as the camera passes over the projects Ice Cube's "ghetto bird" is playing, which is the best song they had in the movie. Other than that, great soundtrack.
