American Gangster

I just watched American Gangster, the Ridley Scott flick with Denzel Washington about Frank Lucas, the first black crime boss of Harlem.



Though the movie was more or less great, my one complaint (and a huge one) is that there was not a single Jay-Z song on the whole soundtrack. Is that not Heart of the City that we just heard in the trailer?




I went into this thing as I'm sure many others did, with the assumption that Hov did the entire thing. He did afterall release an entire album based on the film..what the fuck?

  1. Yes! That pissed the hell out of me. I didn't think he did the whole thing, but you gotta at least have a *few* Jay-Z shits in there, especially when they used one of his songs (and a really good one!) in the *trailer*.
