Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino's motion picture Django Unchained. It was originally released on December 18, 2012. The soundtrack uses a variety of music genres, relying heavily on spaghetti western soundtrack.
Tracks composed for the film are "100 Black Coffins" by Rick Ross and produced by and featuring Jamie Foxx, "Who Did That To You?" by John Legend, "Freedom" by Anthony Hamilton and Elayna Boynton, "Ancora Qui" by Ennio Morricone and Elisa. These three songs were all contenders for an Academy Award nomination in the Best Original Song category, but none of them were eventually nominated.[9]
The soundtrack also includes seven tracks that are dialogue excerpts from the film.
