But where soundtrack tunes so often indulge in the audio-production equivalent of pyrotechnics, some of Spider-Verse’s best songs triumph for the exact opposite reason-Vince Staples’ closer, “Home,” and Swae Lee and Post Malone’s “Sunflower” ride the lowest of lo-fi beats to really let their lyrics shine. And Nicki Minaj turns up the patois over Caribbean vibes on “Familia”-a rare song that directly references the film-alongside verses from Puerto Rican trap artist Anuel AA and Zimbabwean singer Bantu.
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. The soundtrack for the 2018 American animated superhero film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, based on the Miles Morales incarnation of the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man and produced by Sony Pictures Animation, consists of both an original score composed by Daniel Pemberton and a soundtrack featuring original songs written for and. 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. Composer John Paesano, who returns to score the game after delivering an epic soundtrack for the first installment, doesn’t disappoint in the second outing either, this time mixing hip hop beats. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse director reveals how Miles Morales influenced the soundtrack. There was nothing necessarily wrong with the soundtrack to 2002’s Tobey Maguire-starring Spider-Man.
