'KICKS' Original Motion Picture Soundtrack To Feature Wu-Tang-Clan, Marc E. Bassy and More

Back Lot Music will release the soundtrack album for Focus World's Kicks - the debut feature film from director Justin Tipping - on September 9, according to Billboard.

The Kicks Original Motion Picture Soundtrack features artists such as Wu-Tang Clan, Mac Dre, RJD2, Charles Bradley, Iamsu!, Marc E. Bassy and Brian Reitzell.

The soundtrack will release day and date with the film's theatrical release on September 9 both digitally and physically. A vinyl version of the album is planned for release later this year.

The music of the film Kicks acts almost as another lead character in Tipping's urban coming-of-age tale set in the San Francisco Bay Area.

It was important to have the film be reflective of a place and time, and local Bay Area artists like Mac Dre, Iamsu!, Roach Gigz, Dave Steezy and NanosauR help to do just that.

Almost every song heard in the film is available as part of the soundtrack album.

The songs in the movie are held together by composer Reitzell's score, which often acts as the music bed for some of lead actor Jahking Guillory's moments of spoken rap. Creating his own unique method of scoring films, Reitzell draws equally from his experience as a recording and touring musician.

His vision for this film score was to create a seamless landscape of songs, score and source music. It also helps that Reitzell himself is from the East Bay area, where the film takes place.

"I have always wanted to score a film based there," says Reitzell.

"Justin [Tipping] captured the look and feel of the place in such a real way. It was a very natural process for me because I felt so connected to it.

The people, the streets, BART trains, the music... it's under my skin."
