Motown Records reteams with Lions' Gate and groundbreaking director/actor/playwright Tyler Perry to release the soundtrack for his new movie, Madea's Family Reunion. Tyler Perry executive-produced the soundtrack, assuring that every song on the disc appears in the movie. The soundtrack features a sultry new single from Brian McKnight, "Find Myself in You," as well as 9 other new songs from talented artists such as LL Cool J featuring Mary Mary ("We're Gonna Make It"), Chaka Khan ("Keep Your Head Up"), Johnny Gill ("You for Me--The Wedding Song"), KEM ("Tonight"), and a rousing all-star ensemble comprised of Chaka Khan, Gerald Levert, Yolanda Adams, and Carl Thomas on "Everyday (Family Reunion)." Perry also tapped into soul classic favorites like Al Green's "Love and Happiness" and the O'Jays' "Family Reunion" to round out the soundtrack.The movie revolves around the 68-year old southern matriarch Mabel Simmons ("Madea") (played by Perry). Madea's Family Reunion finds her using every tactic in her arsenal to keep the peace and hold her family together for a reunion. The all-star cast includes Blair Underwood, Lynn Whitfield, Boris Kodjoe, Henry Simmons, Maya Angelou, Rochelle Ayers, Jenifer Lewis, Cicely Tyson and many other familiar faces.Last year, Perry took the entertainment industry by storm with the release of his #1 box-office hit Diary of a Mad Black Woman, which garnered over $22 million in its opening weekend.

Great listening!
Great music by various artists. A little R&B with a mix of Gospel tunes. Each song will take you back to scenes from the movie.

Wedding Song
Of course I loved the movie---have watched it several times. Each time I watched it, the wedding scene was so surreal, I was mezmerised by it all--flying angels and all. But, after watching it for the third or fourth time, I really listened to the words in "The Wedding Song" and since I was recently engaged, decided THAT would be the song I wanted played as I walked to meet my groom. Beautiful music!

Didn't really like the songs. Wasn't the right CD was looking for the original songs on the play Madea`s Neighbor From Hell also the original songs from the play that came out in 2006 the play Why Did I Get Married?

Madeas excellent soundtrack
I just heard the entire soundtrack, and overall, enjoyed it very much. The songs fit very well with the movie and certain songs, such as track 1, 3, 5, family reunion, and the wedding song really fits well with the movie. Love those tracks. If you want a soundtrack with up to date as well as good old school songs, this cd does not dissappoint. What i also like, especially with chakas keep your head up is that it uplifts and give a positive message to all going thru trying times. I loved how Tyler incorporated The Ojays family reunion to tie in and fit so well with the family in the movie. This song reminds me of the whole family gathered at the reunion in the movie and makes me remember my own family reunions and smile. 4stars for this cd. Highly recommend!!
