Quentin Tarantino's western film, Django Unchained, stars Jamie Foxx, Christoph  Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kerry Washington and Samuel L. Jackson.

The soundtrack for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained film uses a variety  of music genres, relying heavily on spaghetti western soundtracks. "100 Black  Coffins" was composed for the film by Rick Ross and features Jamie Foxx. Also  composed for the film are "Who Did That To You" by John Legend, "Freedom" by  Anthony Hamilton and Elayna Boynton, "Ancora Qui" by Ennio Morricone and Elisa.  The latter three songs listed were contenders for an Academy Award nomination in  the Best Original Song category.

Seven of the tracks from the soundtrack are dialogue excerpts from the film.

Django (Jamie Foxx) is a slave living in the Deep South after having been  separated from his wife Broomhilda (Kerry Washington). When Django is held for a  slave auction, Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), a bounty hunter who poses as  a dentist, frees Django from his vicious masters, the Speck brothers (James  Remar and James Russo), and gives him the option of hunting down and killing the  Brittle Brothers, a ruthless gang of killers whom only Django has seen. In  return, Schultz will free Django from slavery completely and help rescue  Broomhilda from the plantation of the charming but ruthless owner, Calvin Candie  (Leonardo DiCaprio).

"If Quentin Tarantino's complete immersion in the schlock of the '60s and  '70s no longer seems as surprising as it did in the '90s, there is no denying  that his accomplishment at repurposing has only grown over the years. Take the  soundtrack for Django Unchained, his "Southern" about a slave out to rescue his  wife from an evil plantation owner. Tarantino relies on selections from  spaghetti Westerns, including the theme from 1966's exploitation classic Django  (quite explicitly the inspiration for QT's titular character), '70s funk and  pop, '60s exotica, heaps of quoted film scores, and a hefty dose of new songs  that deftly tweak these very sounds. Most previous Tarantino soundtracks relied  heavily on the past but here there is a strong dose of the present arriving in  the form of hip-hop and R&B, a tacit acknowledgment that he's dealing with  tricky racial issues in this film and it's best to cushion the blow with some  modern music. Of course, it helps that most of these new additions either  directly reference the film's plot -- Rick Ross' "100 Black Coffins" -- or blend  the past and the present in a fashion not dissimilar to Tarantino's filmmaking  (John Legend's "Who Did That to You?," Anthony Hamilton's "Freedom"). But the  true pleasure of Django Unchained is hearing how it swings from this retro-soul  to Jerry Goldsmith and Ennio Morricone scores to Jim Croce's "I Got a Name,"  stopping along the way for choice excerpts from the film's dialogue. It spans  decades and styles but it's held together by Tarantino's vision, not unlike the  film itself." - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic
