Yo, Wassup? This is THE best soundtrack available to buy right now, it's got great mix of dance and R&B etc You should also buy the video, thats even better than the soundtrack!

This is a great CD. Though I'm not really into Hip Hop Rap & R&B, the song goes well with the movie. I'm just disappointed that only one Mark Mancina score is included in this CD.

I've downloaded some Mark Mancina Bad Boys Score from an anonymous user on the internet. The album title is "Bad Boys Score Promo" which includes tracks like :
Car Jack 5:52
Heroin Robbery 5:48
JoJo Doesn't Know-Hello We're Negroes 6:01
A Favor for Mike Lowrey 0:55
Rich Cop, Poor Cop 1:08
Somebody's Upstairs 4:18
The Madam 1:10
A Mixed Conversation 2:00
Explosive Truck Chase 4:11
Thanks For Everything (Mike) 0:51
Lobby Shoot-Out & Foot Pursuit 4:17
Do You Remember Club Hell 1:37
Hangar 3, Bad Boys Arrive 8:02
High Speed Chase, Finale 4:40

The scores are really good! I hope an official Bad Boys Score CD will be released since a promo disc is made.

With some movie soundtrack albums, you don't necessarily need to have seen the movie to appreciate the music. "Bad Boys" is one of these.

"Shy Guy" by Diana King, for example, has gotten enough radio airplay that everyone knows it at least by its opening lines, "Oh lorda mercy mercy mer-cy....", etc. You can find other cool remixes of Juke Joint Jezebel inat least one or two other movie soundtracks.

Be careful: the recording of the "Bad Boys" theme featuring Tek is NOT the version heard in the movie (at the very end). That particular version is a remix that can be found on Inner Circle's famous "Bad Boys" album. Tek's recording is more like an answering call to that question: "Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?" But it does sample the main chorus of the Inner Circle song---about as much as we hear during an episode of "Cops"---and it *is* a cool recording.

But it is really the Boyz II Men-style, from-the-heart singing of Keith Martin on "I'll Never Find Someone Like You" that really tugs at me. It is so reminiscent of "The End of the Road"; I really feel that all of us men should learn at least one song like that and sing it to the women we love.

At the end of the album, we get a small sampling of Mark Mancina's theme for the movie, with a bass line and drum machine activity that seems to harken back to the first "Speed" movie. It's excellent.

This is one of the best soundtracks to have ever been composed. Hats off to this commercially vibrant soundtrack. The RNB & hip-hop tracks are great. But the track that overshadows them all is the main theme from Mark Mancina. This is his best film score composition ever. I wish the had released the bad boys score separately...

While this CD will not set new standards in Rap/R&B based soundtracks, it is nonetheless a fine assembly of talent worth listening and grooving to. For those if you craving your Hip Hop a little more "hardcore", the successor to this soundtrack "Bad Boys II" soundtrack certainly will not let you down as well.

I'm glad that so many of you don't like rap music but guess what? This is a rap/R&B CD so just because it does not feature the movie score, let's not be so quick to throw that one star. This is NOT the musical score to the movie. There is only one track featuring the Mark Mancina theme. If you are looking for the score, you will not find it here. You won't find it on a lot of other CD's either so let's review the album for what it is rather than what it isn't.

The soundtrack has a nice selection of tracks though many of them are not exclusive to this album such as 2Pac's "Me Against The World". An excellent track but if you own the album of the same name then you probably won't find this track as much of an incentive to buy this record. However, tracks such as the Notorious B.I.G. & Da Brat collabo, "Da B Side" are real good. Mancina's theme is real dope. KMFDM's "Juke Joint Jezebel" featured in the movie is a weird choice for an album that is mostly rap mixed with R&B but it is an excellent choice.

This is a decent purchase and if you liked the songs (not the score) featured in the "Bad Boys" film, go out and buy it.

This is a good soundtrack. I have used it in many of my films! Hans Magnus Kvåle.

this is anb awesome soundtrack everyuone how can u give it a 4 stars! well I never find someone like u is probably the best song ive ever heard!

This CD is full of Rap stuff. I just want to ask - Where the hell is Mark Mancina's score???!!! It was great, where is it?
Where are other his scores(Fair Game, Bait, Money Train, Speed 2)? There is only one Mancina's cue - "Theme from BAD BOYS" its brilliant, but 4 minutes is little to short to buy this album.

THE BLEND OF DIFFERENT MOODS SETS THIS SOUNDTRAK APART FROM ANY-OTHER YOU CAN FEEL THE ENERGY...
