The Producers Sure Know Their Onions!
Wakanda Forever is unarguably the most talked-about franchise at the moment. Ahead of its release, there was a premier and now, an official release of a soundtrack that we can only describe as an alignment of stars.
From the idea of pre-releasing the soundtrack to the choice of artists, you can just tell that the producer, Ludwig Goransson is not here to play.
Let’s get down to the specifics of this statement, shall we?
Rihanna’s Comeback
It has been six years and five months of us expecting Rihanna to drop something. Something. Anything. Then, she comes leading the Wakanda soundtrack with Lift Me Up which is also like a tribute to the great Chadwick Boseman.
This one is grandiose, no doubt!
Big ‘Big Tems’!
For Big Tems, it was her covering Bob Marley’s No Woman No cry then going on to be one of the writers of Lift Me Up.
One piece of advice for those of us who are yet to listen to it? Get a good earpiece because this one is For Broken Ears Pro max.
Rema’s part
From the fly, Rema has always tasked us with having to catch up with his lyrics–things are no different in this soundtrack. His fast-paced raps roam free in his performance with Pantera, the American metal band from Texas while his panty-dropping melodies dominate Wake Up with Bloody civilian.
What You Will Hear…
Five of our bestsellers (Tems, Rema, Burna Boy, Fireboy, and CKay) are in this soundtrack that was created in over six studios in 5 countries. There were 2 orchestras, about 250 musicians, 2 choirs and over 40 vocalists throughout the film.
Even if you didn’t want to watch, the curiosity about where CKay’s African Magic Igbo track plays out will get the better of you.
