A look at the 19-song tracklisting below shows how Rihanna's "Lift Me Up" leads off the collection, which features work from Tems, Burna Boy, Future, Stormzy, PinkPantheress, E-40, Fireboy DML, Snow tha Product and more.

The Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack album was produced by Coogler, composer Ludwig Göransson and Def Jam chief creative officer Archie Davis.

"[Coogler] and I talked about the importance of creating an immersive journey of sound and voice," Göransson shared in a statement. "If we used a song in the film, we wanted it to be the entire song, and to be connected to the story. Thematically, we wanted to move the audience from grief to celebration. When you listen to the soundtrack, you can close your eyes and relive the experience of the movie. That was the intention."

Wakanda Forever is the sequel to Coogler's acclaimed 2018 film Black Pantherwhich had a soundtrack album produced and curated by Kendrick Lamar in addition to an original score by Göransson. Lamar's album featured the Weeknd, SZA, 2 Chainz, James Blake, Vince Staples and more.
