Synopsis

Amazon.com
Give thanks to the folks behind Training Day for aiming a little higher on the musical food chain and actually putting together a collection that has more beef than filler. The meat is represented by an eclectic array of talent--everyone from underground champs Gang Starr to P. Diddy, whose hook-up with David Bowie's "American Dream" bites off more than it can spit out. On the plus side, there's "Put It on Me," an X-rated G-funk romp from Dr. Dre and DJ Quick; a fiery remake of N.W.A.'s "F*** tha Police" (now called "Watch the Police") by C-Murder and Trick Daddy; and "Wolves," a snarling, take-no-prisoners salvo from street dawgs M.O.P. Hip-hop's golden child Nelly checks in with "#1," a more-rugged-than-usual shout-out to the glory of success, while Pharoahe Monch's rock-stoked "F*** You" shines a light on this oft-overlooked wordsmith. In short, a veritable feast for ravenous rap fans that feels more like music than product. --Amy Linden

CD Reviews

Very Strong Soundtrack except......
05/06/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"....it was missing one very key song from the film. I couldn't believe Cypress Hill's "(Rock) Superstar" was excluded from the track list. Still a very powerful cd, but one of the film's integral pieces of music was missing. This song was used in every trailer for the film and should have been the first track on the soundtrack."
Awesome

"Usually when soundtracks come out, they are over-hyped so much, people tend not to buy them. Whatever you do, do not sleep on this album. This soundtrack is gem in a big stack of wackness. You can pop this soundtrack into your Cd player and listen to every single song. My personal favorites are the Dre and Quick, Pharoahe Monch, Gangstarr and the Roscoe. But honestly every song is good. What makes this album work is the fact that there is an underlying theme through out and every song touches on it. So it almost becomes like listneing to one of those reading tapes. If you are fan of good hip-hop definitely check the album out, it is worth the copt."
