Jay-Z may possibly be the second rap act after Three 6 Mafia to the win an Academy Award for music in a film. Jay is responsible for scoring the music for an upcoming adaptation of The Great Gatsby along with producer/singer/songwriter/filmmaker Jeymes Samuel of the Bullitts.
One hint of Jay’s involvement can be seen in the movie trailer below, where Hov and Kanye West’s “No Church In The Wild” backs the clip’s action. The song’s context rightfully fits the movie’s atmosphere of luxury and opulence.
Another inkling of Jay’s involvement in the film comes from comments from cast members like Isla Fischer back in April 2012, who said director Baz Luhrmann played Jay-Z music on the set. “On my first day he had Jay-Z pumped up full, and we did the entire scene with, you know, Jay-Z in our ear on full blast while acting, and it was just so liberating,” she told MTV.
Jay’s co-scorer Jeymes Samuel tweeted about the progress of the project on Sunday (Dec. 30): “Jay-Z and myself have been working tirelessly on the score for the upcoming #CLASSIC The Great Gatsby! It is too DOPE for words!” he exclaimed.
The Great Gatsby stars Leonardo DiCaprio and hits theaters on May 10, 2013.

Jay-Z is teaming up with director Baz Luhrmann to bring the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic novel, ‘The Great Gatsby’, to life on the big screen once again! Fans of Jay-Z and fans of the book alike will be excited for this adaptation that’s sure to captivate audiences worldwide. The rapper extraordinaire will also contribute his musical talent in helping score the film remake.

It has been nearly a century since Fitzgerald wrote one of America’s greatest pieces of literature in 1925, yet its relevance still stands strong today. Almost everyone knows about ‘The Great Gatsby’ even if they haven’t read it; its themes have influenced everything from fashion to music over the years. Now, with Jay-Z lending his name and talents to help create an incredible cinematic experience, this timeless story is sure to make an impact like no other movie before it.

Audiences can expect nothing less than great visuals, soundtracks, acting performances – all coming together under the direction of Baz Lurhmann along with Jay-Z’s production skills to deliver what promises to be an unforgettable viewing experience when ‘The Great Gatsby’ comes out later this year!

Overview Of The Film

The Great Gatsby is an iconic novel, written by F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1925 and adapted into film several times since its release. The latest adaptation of this classic story looks to be the most exciting yet – with Jay-Z on board as executive producer and composer for the soundtrack. This remake promises to bring a modern twist to the beloved tale of love, loss, and ambition during America’s Roaring Twenties.

From the moment it was announced that Jay-Z would be involved with The Great Gatsby, fans have been eagerly awaiting what he has in store for them musically. Not only does his addition promise some fresh new beats to accompany the film’s aesthetic; it also signals a departure from traditional orchestral soundtracks that often come along with period pieces like these. With Jay-Z behind the music, viewers can expect a dynamic range of sounds that make use of both old and new elements while capturing the mood and emotion of key scenes throughout the movie.

Given his impressive body of work over his two-decade long career, there’s no doubt that Jay-Z will produce something truly special when it comes time to score The Great Gatsby. It will certainly be interesting to see how he blends together different styles and genres in order to create a unique musical journey worthy of such an iconic story.

Jay-Z’s Involvement In Music Production

Jay-Z’s involvement in the production of The Great Gatsby is sure to make this remake stand out from its predecessors. As an acclaimed artist with a long history of working on movie soundtracks, Jay-Z has the experience and creative vision necessary for creating something truly unique for this highly anticipated film.

In addition to his musical prowess, Jay-Z brings another important element to the table: knowledge of modern technology. By taking advantage of new techniques such as sampling and live instrumentation, he will be able to create music that captures both the era of Fitzgerald’s story as well as today’s popular sounds. This combination should result in a soundtrack that adds another layer of sophistication and energy to the visuals created by director Baz Luhrmann.

It won’t be easy for Jay-Z to create a score worthy of The Great Gatsby’s legacy, but given his track record it seems likely that he’ll pull it off. From what we know so far, viewers can expect something special when they sit down in theaters next year – a mix of old and new styles crafted together by one of hip hop’s most iconic artists.

Conclusion

The remake of The Great Gatsby is sure to be an amazing piece of art. Jay-Z’s involvement in producing the music for the film will only make it even more special and unique. His creative touch and musical expertise are going to contribute so much to this already beloved story.

It’ll definitely be interesting to see how he brings his own style into the mix, as well as incorporating some elements from the original soundtrack from 1974. It has been said that there may also be collaborations with other artists involved in the project, which could add a whole new layer of creativity to the movie.

All things considered, I’m looking forward to seeing this highly anticipated adaptation come alive on screen thanks to Jay-Z’s work behind the scenes – it’s sure to bring something fresh and exciting! There’s no doubt that fans of both The Great Gatsby and hip hop music alike will love what they hear when they watch the movie later this year.
