"Cho Large" more or less repeats the formula, this time, however, the girly-girl chatter is replaced by a darker, sultrier vibe as the Boyz get down-n-dirty over a sleeper track that oozes ominous infractions of a nefarious order. The movie's theme song, "Tokyo Drift (Fast & Furious)" is punctuated by whiny girly-girl voices that intermingle with the TB's native tongue and a Pharrell/Neptunes ping-pong beat. Without a doubt it's the Teriyaki Boyz who dominate this disc (Don Omar comes in with a close second as both he and the Boyz deliver two tracks each on the album) with their brash Beastie Boys-from-the-land-of-the-rising-sun shtick.
Given the Japanese locale, it should come as no surprise that acts like the Teriyaki Boyz and 5.6.7.8's dot the soundtrack and other acts with names like Dragon Ash and Far*East Movement crop up in the mix. True to form, the soundtrack to The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift attempts to create an aural environment akin to the action taking place onscreen. Now the third installment brings a decidedly Eastern slant to the proceedings, still keeping the amplitude in the red, but this time with a louder, more neon sheen. 2 Fast 2 Furious upped the ante with a bevy of Ludacris tracks. The first entry in the franchise featured score by BT and songs by the likes of Ja Rule and Limp Bizkit. One could never accuse the makers of The Fast And The Furious films of skimping on high octane soniference when it comes to the accompanying soundtrack.
