Music of Fame (2009 film)

Fame is a 2009 American musical drama film and a loose remake of the 1980 film of the same name. The film's music accompanied American standards and new pieces, written specifically for the film.[1] The original soundtrack to the film was first released for promoting the film, along with an extended play of remixes of the title track. An additional soundtrack which features dialogs, karaoke versions of selected tracks and performances that were not included in the first soundtrack music followed the film, along with two solo albums from Naturi Naughton and Collins Pennie.[2]

Fame (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the film, released by Lakeshore Records on September 7, 2009. It featured vocal performances from the cast members, notably Raney Shockne, Naturi Naughton, Anjulie, Asher Book, Collins Pennie, Kay Panabaker, Megan Mullally, Rachael Sage amongst several others.[1]

Heather Phares of AllMusic wrote "the soundtrack to the 2009 remake of Fame isn't a strict reworking of the 1980 musical's songs — along with adding new songs and standards, it also includes pop songs, making it a strange hybrid of musical soundtrack, Broadway revue, and a soundtrack to films like Step Up and Stomp the Yard. Only a few of the original musical's songs survived the retooling."[3] He concluded "At times, this Fame feels like it's trying to be all things to all audiences, but it still manages to be a crowd-pleaser."[3]
