    ABOVE THE RIM WAS DEFINITELY MY FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK OF ALL TIME.MY SECOND WAS WAITING TO EXHALE BECAUSE I WOULD ALWAYS LISTEN TO IT WITH MY EX BACK IN THA DAY,KISS AND DO OTHER THINGS FROM IT WITH HER.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Poetic_Assasin/ Poetic_Assasin

    Best movie soudtracks ever:”why do fools fall in love,” “Waiting to exhale,” “The show,” “menace to society” “soul food,” “Hav plenty” “The bodygaurd,” “Romeo must die,” “Above the rim,” “Dave chapelle’s block party.” And i have to take it back to the seventies and say “Car wash,” because Rose Royce’s entire first classic album is that soundtrack; and also, the soundtrack to “Sparkle,” because curtis mayfield penned classic songs like “positive mind,” which was later covered by whitney houston, and “giving him something he can feel,” covered by Aretha for that soundtrack, but brought to my generation’s attention by the ladies on Envogue.

    Love Jones is my all time favorite film, with Casablanca in 2nd. With that said, that movie essentially brought me into adulthood… helped me get in touch with my sensuality and enhanced my poetry game severely… The soundtrack was the perfect album. Also Mo’ Better Blues….
