Sealed 1988 original with hype sticker. Saw cut. Colors is the soundtrack album to the Dennis Hopper-directed 1988 action crime film. The album features an eclectic mix of original compositions and carefully curated tracks from acclaimed artists including Ice T, Salt 'N' Pepa, Big Daddy Kane and Rick James. The record mostly consisted of hip hop music. The album found success, peaking at number 31 on the Billboard charts and was certified gold on July 12, 1988, but it is best remembered for its title track performed by Ice-T. The single wasn't a huge success on the charts, only making it to #70 on the Billboard Hot 100, although it was later ranked the 19th best hip-hop song of all time by VH1 in 2008. The second song on the album, "Six Gun" by Decadent Dub Team was remixed for the album by Dr. Dre of NWA. For music lovers and audiophiles, this release stands as both a collector’s item and a sonic companion to the film, offering insight into how each musical selection underscores pivotal scenes and enhances the film’s exploration of identity, memory, and transformation. more
