The Harder they fall has been a big hit on Netflix. It is a movie about the Wild West and a real gang that existed then. It also highlights something we don't see quite often, black Cowboys & Gals. I have half watched the movie, though it seems good, I just was too tired to focus on it. But it seemed like a good watch, I shall revisit over the holiday season.
What really caught my eyes or should I say ears, is the soundtrack which showcased top Reggae acts; more specifically Koffee and Barrington Levy. What I also find interesting is that the title carries on where "The harder they come" left off. The Harder They Come, The Harder They Fall.
The Harder they Come was a Jamaican film staring Jimmy cliff that was released in 1972. The lead song of the film was also done by Jimmy Cliff, titled "The harder they come". It is said that the song helped to spread wings for Reggae music and Jamaica in the 70s.
The Reggae artistes on the soundtrack really represented in my opinion, but obviously, not their best body of work. It is kind of strange to hear Koffee singing a "Shotta tune" for lack of better words, but in true empress style, she balances it with some consciousness.
Koffee's track brought the uptempo vibe and is the first song on the soundtrack. I like how they put Koffee in her element as these are the type of beats that she is known to ride. The song basically speaks for fighting for what you believe in though it me be a long and winding road. You only have one life to live, so go hard even though you may fall hard. well, that is my summary of this bouncing track. Listen to it below.
Koffee- The Harder They Fall
Barrington Levy's song really brought a dramatical vibe to the cinematics of the film the times it was used. The sound of the track with its roots reggae riddim matched the dusty rugged terrain and the fearless cowboys seeking riches, revenge and power. The sax in the beat really does give you that old western vibe. Listen for yourself below.

Hahahaha, you watch movies because of the soundtracks. Ok I'm joking, I get it, your attention was caught.
Seen it a couple of times on recommendations,but never seen it. I add it to my watch list now that you've spoken some good about it.
How is it going? When is holiday for you? Take care man!
HEhehe the soundtrack brought me back to it after seeing the Koffee song. I guess they do serve a purpose 😄
It is good, at first glance you would think Quinten Tarantino directed it, that kind of movie.
