Bad Boys: Music From The Motion Picture is the soundtrack to the 1995 action-comedy film Bad Boys. It was released on March 21, 1995 through Sony Music Entertainment's sub-label Work Records. The album peaked at #26 on the Billboard 200 and #13 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.

The charting singles were "Never Find Someone Like You" by Keith Martin which peaked at #42 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks, "Someone to Love" by Jon B. featuring Babyface which peaked at #10 on the Hot 100 and #7 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and "Shy Guy" by Diana King which peaked at #13 on the Hot 100 and #21 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.

The album was well received by fans of the rap/R&B genres but disappointed fans of Mark Mancina's movie score as only one of up to fifteen tracks composed for the film by Mancina was featured on the album. Also, most of the industrial rock tracks which featured primarily in the "Club Hell" scene are also missing from the album. These include "Nothing" by Stabbing Westward, "Angels" by Dink and "Sweet Little Lass" by DAG.

The original score by Mark Mancina was released in September 2007 by La-La Land Records as a limited edition of 3000 copies.

Original score composed by Mark Mancina. Additional music by Nick Glennie-Smith

Total time of the La-La Land Records limited release is 70:32
