Editorial Reviews

American Gangster: the story of Harlem drug kingpin Frank Lucas, played by Denzel Washington, highlights the heroin drug trade of the 70's. Russell Crowe plays an ambitious detective who exposes the US government's plans to transport drugs.

The film also stars Josh Brolin, Chiwetel Djofor, Carla Gugino, Ted Levine, John Ortiz, Yul Vazquez, Roger Bart, Common, TI, and RZA.

The soundtrack album gives you a diverse introspect on the film featuring artist such as Hank Shocklee, The Staple Singers, Public Enemy and Bobby Womack. The focus single (Do You Feel Me) on the album features platinum recording artist Anthony Hamilton. The song is also written by Diane Warren, one of the most successful and prolific songwriters to ever work in the music industry.

American Gangster Soundtrack

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 14, 2010

This was a great surprise to finally see this hit! Thank you Jay-Z for giving this to us. I'm not sure what I loved about this movie the music, the scenes or the story. I saw it on the big screen three times. For me that says a lot for a movie. I don't part with my money for movies I wait till they're on Netflix but Denzel Washington is one of my favorite actors. The movie gave me some great memories listening to some of the tunes that I listened to growing up and I knew that one No Shoes had to be the fabulous John Lee Hooker. It was killing me to figure out who that was cause you didn't see much on the music credits. I have been trying to find out who the acapella choir was that was singing when they hit the church to bust Frank Lucas. I'm not much for gospel but by golly they brought the house down. Any body out there in Amazon land know who this choir was? I wish those two songs were added to the soundtrack. When the music is great, you gotta give credit where its due no matter what the genre

I ORDERED THIS BECAUSE I REALLY LOVED THE MUSIC IN "AMERICAN GANSTER"
ESPECIALLY THE CLUB SCENE MUSIC ESPECIALLY "DO YOU FEEL ME" BY ANTHONY HAMILTON. THAT SAID, I DIDN'T THINK THAT IT SOUNDED THE SAME AS THE MOVIE SO IT WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTING. MAYBE THEY HAD HIM PERFORM IT LIVE? I DON'T KNOW. BUT I GUESS IF I WANT THE SONG IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH. EVERYTHING SOUNDED A LITTLE MORE SUBDUED THAN WHAT I EXPECTED - BUT JUST A LITTLE, I STILL ENJOY THE CD.

Great, But Needed More...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 12, 2007

I really love the new track from Anthony Hamilton. Also a nice put-together of the composer Streitenfeld, but I would have liked more sounds either from the movie or inspired by the movie. I already have half the soundtrack from other albums, so I felt a bit cheated. Almost like a soundtrack was needed to differentiate Jay-Z's "American Gangster" album...which I also have--and did have all new tracks. :-)

I'm sure if this movie continues to do well, another soundtrack or inspiration will be released.

Luv this!

Great move great soundtrack. Makes you love the bad guy and hate the cop. Makes you want to know more about the actual people. Steps you back in time to life in N.Y. in the early 70's. Little too much nudity though. And a little too fast at the end.

Great Movie - Even better soundtrack!

I love this CD. Do You Feel Me by Anthony Hamilton was my primary reason for buying it - that song wasn't available anywhere else. After listening to the CD though I was pleasantly surprised at all the classic rock as well as some R&B mixed in. GREAT CD!

ある曲を探そうとしていたのですが、まず曲名は分かっても誰が歌っていてジャンルも分からなかった為コレを買いました。110thstreetは最高です！！コレが欲しいが為に買ったものです。他の曲も良かったですよ。しかも値段が高いと思いきゃ、そうでもなかった。ワンコインで購入出来ました。もちろん映画の方も知っていますし、拝見致しました。非常に良い映画でした。よくできた作品だと思います。リドリー・スコットさんが作る作品では珍しいジャンルだと思いましたが、これまた曲の選択も同じくそう思いました。

La Cabane du Pêcheur - Bistrot am Hafen

Eine von dreien auf dem Markt

Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on January 1, 2010

Verified Purchase

Diese Platte ist neben dem Score von Marc Streitenfeld und Jay-z's Interpretation die dritte im Bunde; während für die einen Anthony Hamiltons Song im Vordergrund steht, denke ich, die Platte sollte man allein wegen der Verbindung der verschiedenen Stile von Blues haben, da wo es alles herkommt; und damit ist eine vorzügliche Zusammenstellung gelungen, selbst wenn es Old school ist; Lowell Fulson's Macca-Interpretation - Why don't we do it in the road - beweist einmal mehr, dass der Komponist nicht unbedingt der beste Interpret seiner eigenen Werke sein muß; schon deswegen kann man sich das Teil zu den derzeitigen Preisen bestens - anstatt Beatles Cover Bands zu hören - zulegen; Meantooth Grin aus Mississipi haben sich übrigens auch durch diese Version inspirieren lassen. Schade ist allerdings das Fehlen von Good Lovin' der Rascals, weil das zeitgeistmäßig in die beschriebene Epoche gehört.

Aprés avoir vu le film peu aprés sa sortie,il faut reconnaitre que la bande originale ne passe pas inaperçue ! En effet ,elle est merveilleusement en accord avec les images ! On se retrouve de suite dans les années 70 ! Pour l'anecdote , Bobby Womack doit etre heureux de la-haut ,son " Across 110th street "est de nouveau sollicité dans cette production ,aprés avoir fait les beaux jours de "Jackie Brown"! Si vous souhaitez passer un bon moment,avec de la bonne musique , n'hésitez pas , lancez vous! Salah.
