We know almost nothing about Marvel and Netflix's
Luke Cage outside of the main cast. News has recently been released that Ali Shaheed Muhammed, a member from the legendary rap trio
A Tribe Called Quest, would serve as a composer and score the series. This makes perfect sense seeing as how
Luke Cage and
A Tribe called Quest are both from New York City.
With songs like "Can I Kick It", "Award Tour", and "I Left My Wallet In El Segundo"
A Tribe Called Quest has delivered some of the greatest hip-hop hits of all time.
Luke Cage showrunner,
Cheo Hodari Coker, recently confirmed the news in an interview with
Entertainment Weekly:
"It's very sophisticated. I mean, it's got a '90s hip-hop vibe, but it's really forward-thinking. We have Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad doing the scoring for us,"
The two recently collaberated to produce the track "untitled 06" off of
Kendrick Lamar's new
untitled unmastered album.
What do you guys think about this news?
Luke Cages debuts on Netflix on September 30th starring Mike Colter as Luke Cage, Mahershala Ali as Cotton Mouth, Theo Rossi as Shades, Alfre Woodard as Mariah Dillard, and Simone Missick as Misty Knight.
