Lil Wayne and Juice WRLD each offer introspective tracks (the former featuring a surprise appearance from the late XXXTENTACION) that use literal darkness as a metaphor for emotional pain. LA MC DUCKWRTH’s “Start a Riot” is a jump-up-on-the-table party-rap rager. While these songs were written for the movie, they often don’t sound like movie songs in the conventional sense. So it makes sense that the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse-which features multiple cross-racial, cross-gender, cross-generational, cross-dimensional characters with Spidey powers-has a soundtrack that really upends the franchise’s own long-established aesthetic and cultural awareness. But surveying it 16 years later, there was something awfully homogenous about its lineup: Sum 41, Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger, Theory of a Deadman, Aerosmith, Pete Yorn. There was nothing necessarily wrong with the soundtrack to 2002’s Tobey Maguire-starring Spider-Man.
