The Sounds of Wakanda

  • Four years after the groundbreaking superhero film Black Panther arrived, Disney has returned with its long-awaited sequel, Marvel Studios’ Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. For his highly anticipated follow-up, writer and director Ryan Coogler tapped Swedish composer Ludwig Göransson-who was also behind the first installment’s music-to score the film. The process began before the final script was even finished.
    With Black Panther: Wakanda Forever now playing in theaters everywhere, Coogler and Göransson stopped by the Genius studio to have an in-depth conversation about the score of the film. The longtime friends and collaborators discuss tapping into new thematic sounds; drawing inspiration from trips to Mexico and Nigeria; and bringing in strong female artists to help emphasize the movie’s theme of motherhood.
    All in all, the score wound up being an impressive unification of multiple cultures and genres. “It’s crazy that this music has been recorded on four continents,” Göransson says. “[We used] over 200 musicians, over 40 vocalists. Everyone comes from different cultures and everyone has unique, distinct sounds. But on this movie, we bring them all together.”

    The music in Wakanda Forever was much softer, more somber and used more silence than any MCU film, even with the added Mayan music with Namir and Talokan.

      A lot of the triumph elements that represented T'challa in the score are gone. I love both soundtracks. Maybe the first one more but Wakanda Forever the movie is a perfect film. I enjoy it better than the first film.

    Shuri's synth theme, the eerie 'Sirens' suite, 'Yibambe' and 'Namor's throne' was my absolute favs. All his themes told the story in its own ways. I already added them to my playlist. Ludwig is slowly becoming one of my all time fav composers!

      I would consider him a legend already. He's done music for Black Panther, Creed, The Mandolorian, Turning Red to name a few (we wont talk about all the works he's done with Childish Gambino) and he's done all this by age 38. Most major composers dont get credentials like this until their mid-late 40's.

      And now Oppenheimer too!!! The tension and depth of sound he built in that film were both absurd. He's an actual musical genius, and maybe (more simply) just a Genius in general.
      "A Beautiful Mind" is a phrase/title that seems pretty fitting for Luwig Göransson.

    it’s wild seeing Ludwig’s progression as an artist. those early Childish Gambino tapes were my first intro into Ludwig just as a producer. then realizing that he also did film and tv scores, i kept following his work. now he’s pretty much the John Williams of our generation. it’s nuts that this dude did Childish Gambino projects, New Girl, Marvel and Star Wars. that’s a huge breadth of work with so many differing thematic changes.
    Ludwig is a true artist. no wonder he’s paired with another genius like Coogler. Wakanda Forever was very well made and easily the best of Phase 4 Marvel.
    I do wish for another Donald Glover collab with Ludwig though: movie, show, album- anything! lol

      I'd say even being a bridge of John and Hans Zimmer as well, which is just amazing to say from me! Having a hand with the composition and the production side of things does make him quite an artist to say.
