Created by Raamla Mohamed, Reasonable Doubt is about fearless defense attorney Jax Stewart (Emayatzy Corinealdi) who, with her questionable ethics, is always ready to manipulate the law. However, despite being judged for interpreting the law as it suits her, she’s always summoned when needed.
The show with its flawed but strong female protagonist, echos the vibe of some popular legal dramas like Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder. Along with great direction and editing, the Hulu series also boasts a great soundtrack.
The Reasonable Doubt soundtrack helps accurately depict the mood of the show. With the main theme music scored by Adrian Younge and Ai Shaheed Muhammad, the series has used a bunch of other songs from various sources.
