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

Very Strong Soundtrack except...... May 7, 2002

....it was missing one very key song from the film. I couldn't believe Cypress Hill's "(Rock) Superstar" was excluded from the track list. Still a very powerful cd, but one of the film's integral pieces of music was missing. This song was used in every trailer for the film and should have been the first track on the soundtrack.

Usually when soundtracks come out, they are over-hyped so much, people tend not to buy them. Whatever you do, do not sleep on this album. This soundtrack is gem in a big stack of wackness. You can pop this soundtrack into your Cd player and listen to every single song. My personal favorites are the Dre and Quick, Pharoahe Monch, Gangstarr and the Roscoe. But honestly every song is good. What makes this album work is the fact that there is an underlying theme through out and every song touches on it. So it almost becomes like listneing to one of those reading tapes. If you are fan of good hip-hop definitely check the album out, it is worth the copt.

I rarely buy soundtracks anymore because the last one i bought was Above the Rim. However, i heard that Nelly song and liked it because it was a far cry from his usual "ice on my wrist" type of... . Then, i saw the video for Pharahoe Monch's "... You," and i really liked that song, so i figured i might as well give it a try. I really think this was a solid effort from the veterans like Gang Starr, Lox, and Dr. Dre with DJ Quik. However, it was the young guns like Krumbsnatcha, Roscoe, and King Jacob & the Professor that really impressed me. The only dislikes i had were "Watch the Police" and "American Dream." I'm kinda tired of people trying to re-make classics, like NWA's "..,. the Police." If you don't have the mental energy to strive on your own ideas, then what are you in the rap game for?Overall, this is worth a buy. Look for that new super-group of Defari, King Tee and Xzibit called Golden State on their song called "Bounce, Rock, Golden State." That's a tight one as well. Trust me, don't sleep on this soundtrack, and maybe peep the movie. It doesn't look half bad either.
Great Soundtrack November 3, 2004

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)
#14 - 5 (worst song on cd --- Professor & King Jacob)
#15 - 9.5 (roscoe - Kurupt's lil bro)
