The gritty drama Hustle & Flow has a southern-fried charm that captures the authenticity of hard-knock life in Memphis. That keep-it-real theme extends to the soundtrack, which spotlights many Dirty South rappers more than familiar with all things crunk. The underdog tale's plot revolves around Djay a broke pimp trying to escape the inner city by becoming an MC, so the images peppering his rhymes aren't pretty. His lyrics are the work of Memphis native Al Kapone, and his flow proves to be a neat fit for Howard, who convincingly steps to the mic as a part of his role. Elsewhere, the pros keep the bass-heavy vibe going, whether it's New Orleans' Juvenile teaming up with Skip & Wacko, Houston rapper Mike Jones hooking up with singer Nicole Wray or the aforementioned Al Kapone. With all of the talent assembled here, Hustle & Flow is one of the best hip-hop soundtracks to come down the pike since 8 Mile.
