The soundtrack for “Sweet Sweetback’s Badass Revenge” matches the intensity of the controversial 70s film, which is one of the earliest examples of the “blaxploitation” genre. Unlike conventional soundtracks, this one incorporates not just music but also dissonant noises, fragments of dialogue, and tumultuous sounds directly from the movie. It presents an avant-garde and somewhat daunting musical experience with elements like gospel choirs, gunshots, sirens, and more, creating a disorienting urban atmosphere. Earth, Wind & Fire make an early appearance on side one, delivering a dose of old-school funk and soul. Side two includes some R&B tracks but then veers back into chaotic territory with layered dialogue and intense moments. This album isn’t for those seeking a conventional musical journey but rather for collectors who appreciate the extraordinary and unusual in music.
