Halle Berry & Cardi B's Bruised Soundtrack Will Make You Want To Watch Even More

Halle Berry has made her directorial debut with Bruised, a sports drama following aging MMA fighter Jackie Justice (Berry), who quit years ago but decides to return to the ring after she's offered an unsanctioned match with top female fighter Lady Killer (Valentina Shevchenko).

But as she prepares for the fight, Jackie is faced with the surprise return of her 6-year-old son, who she gave up for adoption as a newborn. A story of strength and tenacity, Bruised hits Netflix on Nov. 24 along with a star-studded soundtrack, co-produced by Berry and Cardi B.

Lauded by Cardi B on Twitter as “the FIRST female rap movie soundtrack,” the set features the beloved artist’s brand-new, no-holds-barred song “Bet It” as well as 11 other tracks from prominent rappers and R&B and hip-hop musicians.

Fresh off her Oscar win for “Fight for You” from Judas and the Black Messiah, H.E.R. recorded a song titled “American Woman” for Bruised, which Berry said “she killed” and Variety heralded as “another awards-worthy entry for original song.”

JT and Yung Miami of the City Girls’ contribution to the soundtrack is an assertive, cutthroat trap song titled “Scared.” Netflix revealed the track is featured in a key sequence onscreen and will receive a promotional push as award season approaches.

Just a few weeks after she dressed up as Berry’s Catwoman for Halloween, Saweetie appears on the Bruised soundtrack with “Attitude,” which lives up to its title. “I've been working, I've been winning, you see Saweetie, she bad b*tching,” she raps.

“Latto don’t play ’bout that bag, and that’s facts,” spits rapper Latto on the menacing, high-energy “Tha F*ck.” Upon its release, she thanked Berry and Cardi B for the opportunity on Instagram.

The soundtrack’s only true newcomer, Big Bottle Wyanna, contributed her debut single, “Aye,” a party anthem with lyrics meant to be screamed: “I just wanna get drunk, scream ‘Aye’ with my b*tches!”

Cardi B’s longtime friend (and once-rumored enemy) Young M.A pops in for “No Mercy (Intro),” a self-assured piano-trap track featuring lyrics about her sexuality: “F*ckin’ with the same sex, they say it's a sin / But I'm a dyke and she a fem, it's a synonym.”

Rising artist Flo Milli makes an appearance with “Blast Off” alongside rapper and former Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta star Akbar V. “Excited to be apart of the first all female mc soundtrack,” Flo Milli wrote on Instagram.

Shortly after her first season on Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta, rapper Baby Tate is on the Bruised soundtrack with “Dungarees,” and she donned a baby blue dress inspired by Berry’s 2003 Golden Globes look for the film’s premiere.

Grammy-nominated musician Rapsody’s “She Bad” is featured on the album, which she praised on Instagram for its historic all-women lineup: “Love all the flavor! @halleberry and @iamcardib beautiful execution in bringin’ the homegirls together for this! History!”

DreamDoll, the soundtrack’s third Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta alum, provides the positive, empowering album closer “Chacin.” Following its release, she wrote about the project on Instagram: “It’s definitely a moment for the culture.”
