context_page_description: "Across 110th Street" is a single by Bobby Womack, from the soundtrack and film of the same name that starred Anthony Quinn and Yaphet Kotto.
  50 Cent told NME that the song was the first with which he fell in love: "Because of how the situation was for black people in America at that time, there were a lot of struggle songs around. It seemed to be something that really moved the people around me. I felt the power of music to raise people up; to make them angry or proud."
context_section_description: The single was released in February 1973 on the United Artists label. Credited to Bobby Womack and Peace, who had a hit previously with "Harry Hippie", it was composed by B. Womack and J. J. Johnson. Its B-side was "Hang On In There", composed by B. Womack.
  The March 31 issue of Billboard reported that it was his fourth hit in a year. For the week ending May 5, 1973 with the single in its sixth week in the charts, the Billboard best selling soul singles chart showed the single was at position 24 with the previous week's position being 19. Meanwhile, the chart showed the album in its 14th week, maintaining its position at 15.
  The song was given a revival when it was prominently featured in Quentin Tarantino's 1997 film Jackie Brown. It was also featured in Ridley Scott's 2007 film American Gangster.
