 Lovely.... December 11, 2009
Ms. Jap'88 (USA)
I really love the music on here especially Me'Shell NdegeOcello. The songs by Tori Amos, AMAZING!!! The movie is wonderful, it really shows the issues that are existing today.

Higher Learning Soundtrack is great because of three artist: Tori Amos, Liz Phair, and Eve's Plumb. I love Tori's song Butterfly and cover of R.E.M.'s Losing My Religion. This is the soundtrack where I was first introduced to Indie rock queen, Liz Phair - the song Don't Have Time is absolutely amazing and comical. Eve's Plumb was a good band - the song Eye is very strange but good. The rest of the tracks I don't care for, not my cup of tea. But worth purchasing for Tori, she's one of my favorite songwriters.

A double shot of pianist-siren Amos steals the show in what was a marketable mix of (mostly) boring rap, bland R&B, and serviceable rock with a few other worthwhile contributions (Outkast circa Atliens and Rage before Evil Empire dropped to name the obvious ones) made this album enticing when it was released.

I read all 13 reviews and I did not even see the work Outkast. This is by far one of the highlights of the album. The whole thing is good but if you are an Outkast fan this is a must have just for the one song by them.
A Soundtrack That Was Near Prophetic December 24, 2007

As one other reviewer said, this soundtrack (as well as the film that spawned it) was way ahead of its time and many of the topics covered in these songs are still relevant today!
The style of this film was also ahead of its time. It isn't pure R & B, rap, rock or any other style of music. Its all of these things. In truth, this soundtrack kind of represents what American means.....a melting pot. That's what makes this soundtrack so unique.
My favorites are "Higher" by Ice Cube and "All I Ask Of You" by Raphael Saddiq but nearly all of the tracks are worth a listen. Much like New Jack City, this soundtrack was spreading a message that is still just as relevant in 2007 as it was in 1995. Highly recommended.
