The NBA 2K23 Soundtrack includes music from Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Baby and Jack Harlow.
Ahead of the NBA 2K23 Game release on September 9, the Cover for the Dreamer Edition was unveiled today, which stars none other than J. Cole. The Dreamville boss will be in the MyCareer mode of the upcoming game’s Dreamer edition, which will be available exclusively at GameStop in the U.S. and Canada.
“NBA 2K has long been a place to discover new musical talent through their game and continues to be a gold standard for showcasing all things basketball culture,” J. Cole said in a statement. “It’s been an amazing journey to not only appear on a cover of this year’s game but to be part of the MyCAREER storyline, soundtrack and bring the Dreamer brand into NBA 2K.”
In a statement, Alfie Brody, Vice President of Global Marketing Strategy at NBA 2K, stated, “The sheer scale, depth and talent featured in this year’s MyCAREER creates an unparalleled experience within NBA 2K23,.” “At the top of that list of talent is our first cover star who truly sits at the intersection of basketball and music. Bringing a visionary like J. Cole and DREAMER into the creative process for both the game and the soundtrack showcases the pillar of culture that NBA 2K23 has become.”
The Edition will also feature Dreamville artists Bas and Elite, who will “help players befriend J. Cole and capture the hearts and minds of The City.”
