Another thing to mention, this is when Wu Tang was at their peak. This was in between the first Wu tang LP (Enter the Wu: 36 Chambers) and their second album, you know the double disc LP (Wu Tang Forever). Well, Wu tang managed to get a song on just about every soundtrack of that era. So it was like they'd have a new song out every month and then somebody in the clan would drop a solo album every 6 months or so. Since this was before the internet, it's pretty remarkable how Wu Tang stayed on their grind using soundtracks as a medium to get their music out there.

Somebody should go through all of those soundtracks and make a list of all of the Wu tang songs and see if they're on a Wu tang album or if that's the only place you can get it. For example, I'm pretty sure that "Heaven or Hell" is on the Fresh Soundtrack but its also on Raekwon's OB4CL LP. So that's a song you can get on one of the Wu albums. But some of those soundtracks have songs that aren't on any Wu albums.
 
Can anybody think of any soundtracks I left out?

Strictly 90s soundtracks. Nothing in the 80s or 00s.

Also, if you want to know the tracklisting for any of these soundtracks, all you gotta do is go to discogs.com and type the name of the movie and then the word "soundtrack". Like "Juice Soundtrack" and then click on the link and the tracklisting will show up.

GZA's "I gotcha back" and the Wu-tang clan's "can it all be so simple was on the fresh soundtrack as well. "I gotcha back" is also on the liquid swords album and "can it be all so simple" is on the 36 chambers album.

I was just thinking this same thing the other day.

Dungeon Family members also dropped some tight work on soundtracks.
 
Nutty professor joint was off the fuckin chain you'd be hard pressed to find one better

also i remember when Colombia house didn't have any more juice soundtracks i was so mad back in the day.. and why wasn't kill a man on that soundtrack

It would be great if somebody could take the time out to go through all of these soundtracks and try to make sense of them i.e. break them down by East Coast/West Coast and see if there's any patterns and/or crews that are represented more significantly than others.

I'm sure there's at least 5 Wu tang joints, maybe 10. I'd be interested if you could make an entire Wu tang CD-R of songs from soundtracks.

Also, there's a lot of West Coast stuff on those soundtracks. You could probably make a West Coast compilation of songs from 90s soundtracks that aren't on any albums. Hell, you could proabably do the same with East Coast songs.
 
Not really a soundtrack that has hip hop on it but dead presidents was a dope soundtrack I remember growing up that n the nutty professor
 
Yeah, there's a few like that

Crooklyn is another soundtrack that I didn't include for the same reason. Fuck it, I'll add them both.

Good call on Mo Money. I knew I forgot some of the Wayans brothers movies. So far we got 55 90s soundtracks. Who can add on? And does anybody have time to sort through these and try to categorize them ?

I know I'm missing some stuff from the late 90s.

Hmmm. Now we have a dilemma. "The Riddler" by Method Man was most definitely on the Batman Forever Soundtrack. However, its not really a Hip Hop/R&B sound track. So does that count? There's probably hundreds of movies that had one rap song, or one R&B song on the soundtrack.
 
Judgement Night SDTK was dope too. Rappers collaborating with Rock bands.

Helmet + House Of Pain - Just Another Victim


Biohazard + Onyx - Judgement Night


Teenage Fanclub + De La Soul - Fallin


Helmet + House Of Pain - Just Another Victim (T-Ray Devil Worship Mix)
