Performer: Original Soundtrack
Producer: Mitchell Leib; Michael McQuarn Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: The soundtrack to the MTV flick Save the Last Dance features a wide array of music capturing the various settings of the film, which stars Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas in a conflict of black and white America. Artists contributing tracks to the movie include Lucy Pearl, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Q-Tip, and K-Ci & JoJo. ~ MacKenzie Wilson The film SAVE THE LAST DANCE features Julia Stiles as a young girl with dreams of dancing school and a love of ballet. When she meets a young man from the other side of the tracks, she discovers hip-hop and an entirely different style of dance. The freshness she feels in that sense of discovery is evoked by the cuts on the film's soundtrack, which sparkle with a cross-cultural appeal that mixes rap, R&B, and pop. The film's theme song is a perfect example of this cross-pollenization, as we hear interpolations of the chorus from Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors" set against an R&B track full of hip-hop beats. Rappers Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, and Mack 10 (among others) help to add street credibility to the album, but there's no lack of melodic pop appeal either.
