Crack: Vicio Mortal (1991)
Crack: Vicio Mortal is about the dangers of the notorious drug " crack cocaine" and it all takes place in the ghetto (Galveston, TX to be exact) and they make sure you know this by filming the opening credits in all-black neighborhood where things supposedly appear to be rough, but really everyone around the neighborhood is just chilling. This all goes on while Too Short’s “The Ghetto” plays. Let me be frank though, this opening credit scene was truly done in poor taste

Media Music and the Composers Who Shaped Mexico's Movie Soundtracks
If you’ve ever visited a repertoire theater in your city, chances are you’ve seen a film snipe of “OUR FEATURE PRESENTATION” right before the film unspooled on screen. And if you’ve seen that snipe, you’ve probably heard a funky tune playing with it. And if you’re anything like me the first time I heard it around 25 years ago, you’ve thought to yourself “what song is this?” There was a time when quick jingles like this were nameless and the composers were essentially ghosts.
