That is classic Redman, right there! Dopeness.

Pretty good soundtrack, although I can understand why people have complaints.

I thought it was doper when 2K had underground DJ's and their own people create the soundtrack. They had a good ear for music themselves, picked music that connected well with basketball/the game and overall just were excellent soundtracks, IMO. It would be nice for them to harken back to that stuff, but the series is way, way more mainstream than it was from 2K5 - 2K10 (the time that I thought the music was best).

I'm surprised that Future/Drake - Jumpman didn't make the cut. That song is a club record yet actually references something involving the sport. Plus, I love Santigold a lot (she is dope as a MF'er) but she has a other great songs than just Shove It and Creators, IMHO.

I'm surprised that people are complaining about "Hip Hoppers" and this soundtrack having "too much" rap music. From listening to the soundtrack thus far, I would argue the complete opposite.

No but you said too much hip hop in your opinion and I'm just stating which pretty much a fact that the hip hop community is more associated with basketball . So it shouldn't be alarming that this album has a lot of rap . I like diversity in songs too but if you're looking for less hip hop in a basketball game you're looking in the wrong place pal

Naw he's right because that basketball song from what 2k12 got on my nerves after a while . Don't have problem some songs that are basketball related if they're good . But not even in NBA promos are the songs really basketball related

Please don't tell me you're talking about the legend that is Kurtis Blow? Haha. I love that song.

Only 12 songs on this soundtrack out of what 39 are considered rap game so you have 27 songs of different types of music .

Lmaoo man " Basketball is my favorite sport " man it was like the game was purposely trying to play it every 4 mins it made me go crazy

I wish they brought back Electric Feel arguably the best 2k song or top 5 other than Creator

I like this song off the soundtrack and I mostly listen to rap and R&b
