Review
Think of the OC in the ghetto with guns, drugs and violence and you've pretty much got the Kidulthood soundtrack sussed. Just as the film represents the murky life of inner-city adolescence, the soundtrack is a who's who of the infamous and unsung hip-hop and grime heroes these troubled teens adore.
Dizzee Rascal's "Jus' A Rascal", and Lethal Bizzle's "Pow" deserve the major props on this generous, 25-track affair. From the more mature end of the spectrum its good to see Roots Manuva's "Witness" get another outing.
There are other five star offerings from The Streets, Klashnekoff and Skinnyman -though Shystie is the only female featured, and Kano is nowhere to be seen. Still, it's only a small complaint - this is a quality soundtrack, conveniently doubling as a useful primer to the contemporary UK Urban scene. --Matilda Egere-Cooper

Given that the film itself deals with youth culture of Britain, then the soundtrack had to deal with it too. So many great British artists with the likes of Skinnyman, Klashnekoff, Dizzee, Roots Manuva to name a few, and the choice of tracks make this a must have album for any HipHop fan in the UK. Even better then, that these all make a soundtrack too. Each of the artists involved have their own views on society, and each of them expresses them in their own manner without being interrupted by skits and clips every five seconds.
For me this soundtrack is brilliant, and anyone who knows the artists involved should already understand the quality of their rhymes, beats and so on. And if you've stumbled across it by accident, then you should buy it on purpose. A definate recommend.
A well compiled and very well considered soundtrack.

To be fairly honest, i havent seen the movie......yet. But when i saw all these great artists on just 1 CD, u can tell it is a must buy. Cinematic Orchestra, Roots Manuva, Klashnekoff. Great artists of the UK, especially Cinematic Orchestra, it doesnt matter what kind of music your into, this track "All Things To All Men" will change your mood instintly. And with Roots Manuva spitting his lyrics, you go into your own world.
