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

 OK I guess May 19, 2008
Fair soundtrack, but leans totally to rap, leaving out quite a bit of excellent music in the process - too bad!
 Song Title Help February 19, 2008
I am looking for the song that is played when Alonzo and Jake are walking up the steps to Smiley's house near the end of the movie. I clicked on the previews of the tunes on the cd here and could not recognize it. The song is a heavy down beat with violins and guitars. It's a riveting tune and I hope someone here recognizes it. Please send a reply back to my email as I would like to sample the whole song. Regards.
4 & A 1/2 STARS DAMN RIGHT! YOUR IN A PRIVLEDGED POSITION 2 LEARN A THING OR 2, "KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN"!!!! July 8, 2005

Yo Bob from St. Louis MO says: "I'm getting tired of all these hate crimes in rap..." [...] I love rap and I think that people choose what to listen to. Rappers are allowed to express their views. [...]

This is one of the best rap soundtracks I've ever heard. It features rappers from the east, south, and west some known and some not known. All the songs except one or two are tight. You can listen all the way through without disappointment (except #14). Buy It, you'll be pleased.
#2 - 9 (Krumbsnatcha & M.O.P.)
#3 - 9.5 (Xzibit f/ Ras Kass & saafir)
#4 - 9 (DJ Quik & dr. Dre f/ mimi -- also on Quik's 2002 "Under the Influence")
#5 - 9 (Nelly - good song and I don't really like him to much -he's talkin' about KRS-One but never says his name)
#6 - 9.5 (Pharaohe Monch - song goes along w/ the movie)
#7 - 8 (C-Murder f/ trick Daddy)
#8 - 9.5 (Sheek & Styles w/ jadakiss on the hook {LOX})
#9 - 9 (the unknown - Napalm)
#10 - 7.5 (Puff Daddy, Mark Curry, Kain, Big Azz Ko, David Bowie)
#11 - 8 (Cypress Hill f/ Kokane)
#12 - 10 (classic from Clipse {Pusha T & Malice})
#13 - 9 (gangstarr)
