The Best Man by Original Soundtrack

Pros: I have to cut my Love Jones soundtrack listening time
Cons: I have to cut my Love Jones soundtrack listening time

We all know already what makes a mind blowing CD: a mixture of Maxwell, a touch Lauryn Hill, and a pinch of Kenny Lattimore stirred with Me'Shell N'degeocello's poetic prose. (If you don't know this by now, it's evident that you don't own the Love Jones...

Pros: Strong performances from unlikely sources
Cons: The tendency of some artists to provide lackluster contributions to soundtracks

Y'all know how most soundtracks are nowadays...they either go gather a bunch of hip-hop artists and rappers to throw together a mishmash of tracks that have little or nothing to do with the movie(HOW STELLA GOT HER GROOVE BACK)only for record sales or...

Pros: Wide variety of artists
Cons: "What You Want" divulges movie plot, "Hit It Up" is lame rap music at its worst

I say buy the Best Man Soundtrack. Why? Because it is one of the best soundtrack albums that I have heard in the last couple of years. It is one of those rare soundtracks where the songs on the album help to tell the story, not sell the album....

Pros: Wonderfully put together... great variety of fabulous musical genres
Cons: None

In addition to "The Best Man" being the 'bomb,' the soundtrack is the best music heard accompanying a movie in years! The movie was more than I expected, combining drama and comedy at its best, but the soundtrack is even better. Hard to...

Pros: music, insight, compliments movie
Cons: none

From the opening track to the concluding song, this soundtrack serves as a constant reminder and companion to the movie. In this day and time of "music inspired by the movie", the soundtrack actually serves as a secondary medium in which the...

Pros: Lots of artists
Cons: Sometimes to many styles of music after the other

The Best Man soundtrack is a perfect compliment to the beautifully romantic movie that debuted earlier in the fall. The Best Man soundtrack contains songs by a variety of artists and covers everything from hip-hop to reggae to the traditional love...

Pros: upbeat, good artists, romantic songs, mellow songs, has everything
Cons: no older artists

This album is overwhelmingly well constructed. The movie obviously was a winner, and when the soundtrack came out everyone knew it was going to be a hit, and everyone's intuition was correct. This album with its sexy, sensual, tunes was excellent. The...

Pros: Good mix of R&B and hip-hop
Cons: Some tracks aren't up to par with others

The best man soundtrack contains a pretty good mixture of R&B and hip-hop tracks that follow the theme of the movie pretty closely. Love, trust, and loyalty are the themes prevalent in all 14 songs sung by an all-star line-up of artists. Maxwell,...

Pros: Great R&B sound
Cons: Could have been better at intertwining songs

This is one of the best soundtracks that I have heard this year. It was a beautiful blend of Hiphop and R&B from some of the hottest artists around. I purchased it on a recommendation from a friend and found it to be a wonderful addition to my CD...

Pros: The whole album
Cons: None

Why buy the best man soundtrack? I say buy it because this is the best soundtrack to accompany a movie in a long time, that's why! From beginning to end this soundtrack was smoking with wonderful cuts. From Stevie Wonders "AS" To the...

Pros: Great CD to relax to. Flow of songs is great. Great love songs also.
Cons: One REALLY crappy Rap Song by Wannabe Rappers Sporty Thieves.

How many of your have been driving and you hear a song and think, "Man, I really love that song! I need to go buy that." ? Well i did that to the song "The Best Man I Can Be". That song just spoke to me. When i realized it was on...

Pros: Easy listening, Continuous Play
Cons: Formula R&B

"The Best Man" soundtrack was not a must for inclusion in my CD library. After a trip to my neighborhood music outlet,it had a home.Although I saw the movie during it's weekend premier, I was taken by the acting and not the music. The track,...

Pros: Nice variety of artists
Cons: Not every artist has a full CD

I purchased this soundtrack because the movie has gotten great reviews by critics and just talking to friends of mine. I haven't seen the movie as of yet but I like to match the music to the scene when I do see it. My favorite tracks are #12 by...

Pros: good variety of artists
Cons: no Stevie Wonder!

I agree with all of the other opinions about The Best Man soundtrack. I keep it here at work and the variety of songs are very conducive for a work-like atmosphere.

I really enjoy the two Maxwell songs. "As My Girl" is sort of...

Pros: A perfect mixture
Cons: Not a 2 CD set

Just as the movie had a wide range of characters, someone each of us could identify with, the same can be said for the soundtrack. A wide variety of musical flavors for all tastes. Blending together for a perfect mixture of ballads, up tempo, a little...
