In 1995, Coolio made a song featuring R&B singer LV for the movie Dangerous Minds, titled “Gangsta’s Paradise”.

It was the No. 1 single of 1995 in the United States for all genres, and was a global hit reaching No. 1 in the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Austria, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand. Gangsta’s Paradise was the second-best selling single of 1995 in the UK.

At the 1996 Grammy Awards, the song won Coolio a Grammy for Best Rap Solo Performance.
