The soundtrack to this intense coming-of-age film simmers like an endless summer day, with up-and-comers and hip-hop royalty rhyming over moody beats. Kanye West’s Auto-Tune-tweaked voice flutters out of the downtempo “Figure It Out,” while the determined monologue of Erykah Badu and Nas’ “This Bitter Land” builds over haunting strings.
