Title: Curtis Mayfield – Super Fly
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1972, Soul, Funk, Chicago, IL
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Political Science: Wrote it as a critique of the drug economy and the glamorization of hustling—using the film’s world to argue against it.

  2. Studio Lore: Mayfield ran his own operation (Curtom) and controlled the sessions, a rare level of Black artist ownership in early-’70s soundtrack culture.

  3. Media Narrative: The soundtrack often outshone the movie in public memory, becoming a reference point for how music can reframe a film’s meaning.
