The Blaxploitation - merger of the two English words black (black) and exploitation (exploitation) - was a kind of film that was born in the United States in the early seventies, when many exploitation films were made at low cost as a result of having reference to African Americans. The films were mainly African-American actors, directors were directed by African Americans but also white, and were the first to have soundtracks of funk and soul music. Although criticized by civil rights activists because of their use of stereotypes, they pointed to the great and newfound demand for Afrocentric entertainment and were immensely popular among the black audience, but also among whites.The term blaxploitation was always contested by actors and directors who took part, because it was considered offensive and not very enriching. 1 Trouble Man (Radio Spot) 2 Gil Scott Heron - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised 3 James Brown - The Boss 4 The Temptations - Ball Of Confusion 5 Universals - New Generation 6 Bobby Byrd - I Know You Got Soul 7 The Mack (Radio Spot) 8 Don Julian - Shorty The Pimp 9 Earth, Wind & Fire - Fan The Fire 10 The O'Jays - Give The People What They Want 11 Wilson Pickett - Fire And Water 12 Black Gunn (Radio Spot) 13 Kool And The Gang - Funky Stuff 14 Brand New - Party Time 15 Exit 9 - Miss Funky Fox 16 Black Nasty - Getting Funky Around Here 17 Funkhouse Express - Music Makes You Move 18 Slaughter (Radio Spot) 19 The Isley Brothers - Get Into Something 20 Tina Turner - Whole Lotta Love
