Interview With "Highest 2 Lowest" Composer Howard Drossin & Songwriter Aiyana-Lee

#Highest2Lowest is an American crime thriller film directed by Spike Lee from a screenplay by Alan Fox. It is an English-language remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1963 Japanese film "High and Low," itself based on Ed McBain's 1959 novel "King's Ransom." The film stars Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera, ASAP Rocky, John Douglas Thompson, Dean Winters, LaChanze, Princess Nokia, and Ice Spice (in her film debut). The film had its world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival out of competition, where it received positive reviews for its performances, music, and direction from Lee. Composer #HowardDrossin and songwriter/performer #AiyanaLee, who collaborated on the film's title track, were both kind enough to spend some time talking with #NextBestPicture contributor #DanielHowat about their work and experiences working on the film, which you can watch or listen to below.
