THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS is a film about L.A. street gangs who use souped-up hot rod races as a means of settling their rivalry. Accordingly, the movie's soundtrack is full of contemporary urban music that accurately reflects the relentless action and quick pace that define the film. Ja Rule, who even makes a brief onscreen appearance, offers "The Furious," which utilizes his trademark raw, gritty rapping style to good effect. No less esteemed a figure than Faith Evans drops in with the funky, melodic, pop-friendly "The Good Life." Along the way, everyone from R&B star R. Kelly to hard-hitting rapper Scarface drops in to add their signature sound to this soundtrack, which stands up as fine hip-hop/R&B album regardless of its connection to the film.
What the critics say...
Uncut (9/01, p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...[The album] revs up the racetrack blockbuster with few pit stops: clench your teeth and hold on for grim life as nu-metal and hip hop collide unflinchingly..."i
