It’s no secret that Marvel’s newest superhero movie, Black Panther, is a major box office success. This movie’s smashing the norms of who’s normally represented in Hollywood by featuring a mostly black cast and black production crew. But it doesn’t stop there- the Black Panther soundtrack is accompanying the movie in this social movement. The album’s some of Kendrick Lamar’s best work and features a number of talented rappers and hip-hop artists, like SZA, the Weeknd, Vince Staples and Khalid, among others. I would highly recommend listening to the entire soundtrack, but if you only have time to listen to a few tracks, here’s a highlighted list of the songs you don’t want to miss!

“All The Stars” (with SZA) 

 

“X” (with 2 Chainz and & Saudi) 

 

“The Ways” (with Swae Lee) 

 

“King’s Dead” (with Kendrick Lamar, Future & James Blake) 

 

“Pray For Me” (with Kendrick Lamar) 

 

Happy listening! You won’t be disappointed!
