Gangsta's Paradise (feat. L.V.)

Momentum

This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.

Why it's here

"Gangsta's Paradise" was the lead single from the soundtrack to the 1995 film Dangerous Minds, and its Antoine Fuqua-directed video featuring star Michelle Pfeiffer keeps the song tied to that movie. [1] The track topped the charts in 16 countries, was Billboard's best-selling single of 1995, and won the 1996 Grammy for Best Rap Solo Performance, making it Coolio's defining catalog hit. [2] Its hook is built on an interpolation of Stevie Wonder's 1976 "Pastime Paradise," which has kept the record in continuous circulation as a 1990s standard. [3]
