As long as I can remove Bugatti from the soundtrack, I think I'll be pretty happy with this.

Edit: Listening to the playlist on shuffle and the Hogni song came on (Bow Down)... Love when they go back to some of the old 2K songs.

Updated the OP with the official tracklist for the NBA 2K16 soundtrack.

So is DJ Premier a CM Punk fan?

If you're on PS4 I'm sure someone will throw up an unedited version of the soundtrack on Spotify. I actually have three different soundtracks that I listen alternate back and fourth between when I play.
1) NBA 2K9-2K15
2) An NBA Live & NBA 2K mix
3) An Old School Hip Hop mix - there's nothing better than backing someone down in the post while Ice Cube's "You Can Do It" is playing
All of them have explicit lyrics.

I'll probably add a 4th soundtrack of 80's music which would be a collection of 80's Hip Hop, also some Bon Jovi, Journey and even Madonna... This is inspired by the Pelicans 80's night game that I went to last year.

I wish that we could add custom stadium sounds so I could get the Mario Bros and Pac Man sound effects that they played during the game.

I like it, just would have preferred a bit more indie rock. Oh well.

# 66 Ownal0t @ 07/24/15 11:23 AM

No sideways? Come on 2k : /

# 67 Hassan Darkside @ 07/24/15 11:29 AM

I was hoping for some RedLand.

More like.... CM Punk is a 'Living Colour' Fan.

# 69 Snrubby @ 07/24/15 01:13 PM

Pretty solid playlist.

Really surprised Cult of Personality is in, was hoping some Kanye was included (maybe some Yeezus instrumentals) as well as some Kendrick Lamar.

# 70 Hustle Westbrook @ 07/24/15 05:34 PM

I'm glad to see Little By Little back on the soundtrack. Probably my favorite song from 2K11.

# 71 Mauer4MVP @ 07/24/15 06:29 PM

No Allan Kingdom either?!

# 72 MoneyOvaHuds @ 07/24/15 07:44 PM

Why is 2K Classics not the entire 2K11 soundtrack?!

In all seriousness, we really need Sirius by The Allan Parsons Project in there. That's the GOAT's theme song, after all.

# 76 MoneyOvaHuds @ 07/24/15 11:21 PM

Really missing Electric Feel and Symphonies

Yea i think you get the idea. It's not for all color obviously. As a non-white and non-black, I said the same thing....what the heck are those songs? And you think someone that created the game know better how to appeal to the masses with their songs. But i guess they have no choice (or do they) because obviously they're letting someone else select the songs for them...and that someone else is NOT representing the masses i can assure you that. Every freaking year, they're doing the same thing. They don't care if the songs appear to the masses or not. Last year, i like about 3 songs out of what? 20-30? The same thing this year lol.

# 78 philliesfan136 @ 07/25/15 02:44 AM

super happy with Blitzkrieg Bop, Cult of Personality, 0 to 100, and The W.A.N.D off the bat. the rest, not too familiar with (well besides All I Do is Win & We Dem Boyz, ugh).

# 79 Sports fanantic @ 07/25/15 04:24 AM

i'm really liking this list, some good diversity of music that I can see myself not going to the music menu and checking off their song.

# 80 Optik @ 07/25/15 09:12 AM

LOL the Tony Hawk's "Hi Ho let's go" 3 song is in this? LMAO!!!
