Synopsis

Amazon.com
Director Antoine Fuqua's action comedy stars Jamie Foxx as a lowly thief busted for a fish story--selling shrimp as scampi--who hooks up with another thief (Robert Pastorelli), who got away with a bit more: $42 million worth of gold bars, to be exact. The songs accompanying this tale are fast and furious. Foxx's own "Bed Springs" won't have him leaving his day job anytime soon. But the unpredictable combustion of Beanie Sigel with Ram Squad; former Geto Boy Scarface (featuring Dangerous); Cuban Link and Fat Joe; and current superstar Nelly (featuring the St. Lunatics) form a serious hard-core attack. Even when the beats slow, the anger rides hard. Softening things a bit in relief is R&B popster Mya, perhaps best known for inspiring a Tommy Hilfiger lipstick shade, with the Jimmy Jam- and Terry Lewis-produced, seductive come-on "Free." Donell Jones's "Take It There" stands as another notably restrained track. --Rob O'Connor
 

CD Reviews

Catch the Bait

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The year 2000 have been terrific for movie soundtracks with the likes of Nutty Professor II , Shaft, Big Mommas House, Romeo Must Die all these soundtracks has satisfied hip hop fans and r&b fans alike.. Now you can add the soundtrack to the motion picture Bait to the list of very good soundtracks.. The 16 track CD is a very strong collection of head banging hip hop and smooth out r&b.. Bait has an impressive line up of artist pretty much read like who is hot right now.. Mya gets the soundtrack started with her dance track Free.. The song deals with finding that right one in your life.. The song was produced by the hitmaking Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.. Next up is one of the hottest hip hop tracks on the CD Cuban Link and Fat Joe is on board for the blazing Why Me?? this is certainly a top notch banger.. Nelly with his Icey .. This song reminds me a lot of his current hit Country Grammar If you like that song you will like this one.. Donell Jones turns in a fine performance on the track Take it There .. Donell shows that he can do the uptempo tunes as well as he can do the slow tunes.. Total on board with one of their best songs Quick Rush with a little help from Missy Elliott.. Newcomers from D.C call Majusty comes in with the best cut on the CD with the ballad Where Is The Love these guys can really sing a very impressive debut.. Another newcomer Jaheim comes in with the smooth ballad Remarkable with a little help from R.L from the group Next who co wrote the song.. Other noteworthy contributions Ram Squad, Trick Daddy, The Roots.. This is a must for all r&b and hip hop lovers"

"The movie was great, but there seems to be a song missing.
When the two brothers are in the stolen porsche there is a song
playing, but I could not find it on the sound track or in the credits. Does anyone know the title?"
