SOUTHPAW EMINEM SONGS MOVIE
He wanted it to be like “The Breakfast Club”? Talking about the album, executive producer Eminem told The New York Times, “We wanted to make sure that the songs would remind you of the movie years down the road. But here are 5 wack facts you may not know about the project …ġ. Logic, Busta Rhymes, Kxng Crooked, Royce Da 5’9″, Tech N9ne, Gwen Stefani, The Weeknd and, of course, Shady himself. The soundtrack stars a lineup of pop, hip hop and R&B stars including Fitty, Action Bronson & Joey Bada$$, PRhyme Ft. Rachel McAdams plays his wife and 50 Cent and Rita Ora also make appearances. Just when you were starting to outgrow Shady XV and the Marshall Mathers LP 2, up pops Eminem with his soundtrack for the new boxing movie, “Southpaw.” In theaters now, the gritty flick stars Jake Gyllenhaal as a left-handed underdog fighting for custody of his young daughter. Use it to feel all nostalgic or to DJ all future summer barbecue parties.įor a breakdown of which songs here appeared on which soundtracks, see the above slideshow.Shady’s back, back again. Back in the '90s and early 2000s, though, new hip-hop-centric movie soundtracks were hitting shelves on what seemed like a monthly basis, yielding some of urban radio's best jams and catering to every kind of hip-hop listener.īet you didn’t realize that without 1999’s In Too Deep soundtrack, for example, 50 Cent might not even have a career, huh? Or that Warren G and Nate Dogg’s timeless "Regulate" happened because of a Tupac Shakur movie? Those are just two of the audio flashbacks you’ll hear in this: The Ultimate Hip-Hop Movie Soundtrack Playlist. Once a common practice, compilation albums loaded with original tracks from popular hip-hop artists have fallen out of popularity, at least within the music biz blame it on the decline of record sales, which doesn’t exactly justify the costs required to assemble a substantial "who's who of rap and R&B" lineup on one gargantuan release. In today’s record industry, the Southpaw soundtrack is comparable to Haley’s Comet. There are also two new Eminem tracks: "Phenomenal" and the Gwen-Stefani-assisted "Kings Never Die." Southpaw's original soundtrack drops this week via Em’s Shady Records, and features new songs from 50 Cent (who also co-stars in Southpaw as a fight promoter), Slaughterhouse (Joe Budden, Royce Da 5’9, Crooked I, Joell Ortiz), PRhyme (Royce Da 5’9 and DJ Premier), D12 member Denaun and appearances from rap heavyweights Busta Rhymes and Tech N9ne. Genuinely a fan of the project, Eminem stuck around to what he does best: he oversaw the film’s music. Left without a leading man, Southpaw’s producers met with Aaron Paul ( Breaking Bad) and Charlie Hunnam ( Sons of Anarchy) before landing on Gyllenhaal for the role of Billy Hope, a boxing champ who’s pulled back into the ring after a family tragedy rocks his world. The script, written by Sons of Anarchy mastermind Kurt Sutter, was ready for Eminem, but the iconic rapper got cold feet once it came time to start prepping his eighth solo album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (which was released in November 2013). When it was first announced in late 2011, the boxing drama Southpaw, directed by Antoine Fuqua ( Training Day), was supposed to star Marshall Mathers, who would’ve made a long-overdue acting comeback following his subtly excellent performance in 2002’s kinda-biopic 8 Mile.
