Product Description

Amazon.ca

Given that the film is a western, admittedly a sci-fi comedy western, the tracks on this disc wouldn't really fit in the movie. Of course, Wild Wild West is also a Will Smith blockbuster, and this is where the album takes its lead, making this a slick and polished successor to the best-selling Men in Black song album. Will Smith opens with the title tune, a catchy and highly commercial chart-storming rap featuring Dru Hill and Kool Mo Dee. The remaining 14 tracks are mainly light pop-rap, though "Bailamos" by Enrique Iglesias adds an attractive Latin flavour and Faith Evans' "Mailman" and "Hero" by Breeze are both smooth soul ballads. It's difficult to see how some of the tracks are really inspired by the film, while others skilfully stir western ingredients into the mix--"Bad Guys Always Die" by Dr. Dre & Eminem adding six-gun samples to an outlaw odyssey. This is state-of-the-art radio friendly US rap, but just make sure you get the album you really want, because the orchestral soundtrack album by Elmer Bernstein (who composed the western classic The Magnificent Seven) has a virtually identical cover. --Gary S. Dalkin

3.0 out of 5 stars Hey Wild July 2 2003
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This c.d. is alright. I just love Eminem but I thought this song was one of his corniest songs he has ever done. I thought the theme song was really good but the rest of the c.d. kinda stinks. If anything I would just get the single.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hmm . . . Jun 3 2001
Format:Audio CD
I got pretty tired of this CD quickly, which isn't that unusual for me, but I am still very disapointed. The songs Wild Wild West and Bailamos are very good, and I can still listen to them, but most of this disc is forgettable R&B and rap songs with a pop side to them. Lil' Bow Wow had his debut song on this album, which is the horrible Stick Up with Jermaine Dupri. Artists like Faith Evans, Tatyana Ali and Blackstreet make up the majority of this disc. While their songs individually may sound good, all grouped together they sound boring and repetitive. The track by Common has nowhere near the depth and thoughtfullness his later work featured, even though it does give the talented Jill Scott a time to shine. Dr.Dre and Eminem's duet is interesting, and is completely profanity free (Oh my God) but the chorus gets on your nerves so quick. If you really like R&B pop, then this would be a good buy. But if you want some catchy music, or rap with depth, do not buy this. You will be really disapointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars GOOD INSPIRATIONAL SOUNDTRACK FOR THE FILM May 23 2001
Format:Audio CD
This soundtrack album is a well-balanced representation of songs inspired and heard in the film. The music is tantalizing. It is a well-executed and very refreshing CD. Smith's WILD WILD WEST is a very well thought out composition and is brilliantly delivered. It still sounds fresh.
