One of the more controversial high-profile movies Chi-Raq is set to hit theaters tomorrow and in preparation of that the Spike Lee-directed film has unveiled the complete soundtrack tracklist. The official soundtrack will be released tomorrow, the same day as the film, and it will include tracks from the likes of R. Kelly, Nick Cannon, Jennifer Hudson, Tink and others.
The soundtrack features two individuals who act in the film including Jennifer Hudson, who has a small role and Nick Cannon is one of the main protagonists. He writes and raps the main introductory theme song "Pray 4 My City," of a total 13 tracks that make it onto the OST.
Though the film does not come out until tomorrow, many individuals already have opinions about Chi-Raq, which takes a unique approach to the crippling violence that has ravaged the Southside of Chicago. It takes a satirist approach to writing and is based on the ancient Greek play Lysistrata from Aristophanes where women attempt to end the Peloponnesian War by withholding sex from soldiers until their husbands stop fighting. This is applied to the gangs of Chicago, but with a satirist twist, focusing on city's story and individual struggles.
