A while back several big Black Panther Fans and I started a discussion about what we would like to see in and what we would like the highly anticipated movie to sound like. Our suggestion was that Ryan Coogler and Marvel hire Kanye West to create the soundtrack. This is what we imagined it would look like...
15 tracks (not in any particular order) Enjoy.
What I consider the T'Challa's anthem and a perfect track to open up the film on...
You've probably never heard of this guy but Burna Boy is a pretty big deal in Nigeria. This is the kind of beat I could imagine as we get a look at T'Challa's lavish and not so serious day to day lifestyle.
What better tune is there to introduce us to a villain like M'Baku aka Man Ape?
I'll be seriously disappointed if we don't see Monica Lynne in this movie. I picture her character and music to be deep and layered. Ryan Coogle is know for creating well developed characters so I'm excited.
Here's another song I could see Monica Lynne performing by an artist I personally love. Get a hold of them lyrics tho... #foreverrelevant
This is the music you want for that steamy sex scene! Oh wait, this is a Marvel movie lol almost forgot how
family friendly this probably going to be... How about a death then?
The enemy is plotting...
This is the part of the movie when we see T'Challa use his genius to uncover whatever plot the writers come up with.
The training montage or the brilliant action sequence where we see the king take on the Hatut Zeraze aka Wakandan Secret Police, you chose but this track by Stromae is what I would have playing in the background.
I'm hoping to get one of those James Bond/Fast & Furious type car chases somewhere in this movie. Maybe we even could get a look at Black Panther's custom built Jet Bike?
Now it would be really hard to imagine this soundtrack without This Is Africa by K'NAAN. The first time we see Wakanda in all of it's glory, this is what I want to hear.
The true mastermind is revealed and it's time to take him down with style. Everything has lead to this and T'Challa ain't playing... That sound about right? What do you see when you hear Kendrick's hit and think of the Black Panther?
A bit corny I'll admit but this is that victory song that we need after the Black Panther has saved his people and legacy.
It's the end of the movie and time to
Drop The Beat!
