Older fans probably remember at least one or two songs from the original Space Jam soundtrack, which featured Bugs Bunny spitting bars written by JAY-Z, a stacked posse cut featuring Method Man, Busta Rhymes, Coolio, LL Cool J, and B Real, and the hilarious and emotional masterpiece that is “Basketball Jones.”
Suffice it to say, the upcoming Space Jam: A New Legacy soundtrack has big, toon-sized, shoes to fill. Having officially kicked things off to a good start with the Lil Baby and Kirk Franklin-assisted “We Win,” the upcoming soundtrack has been unveiled in full, complete with a stacked starting roster of hip-hop talent. In fact, the lineup was revealed in a rather entertaining fashion, with a playful basketball-themed announcement trailer you can peep right here.
On paper, the project is certainly solid, with appearances from Lil Wayne, Chance The Rapper, John Legend, Saweetie, Salt-N-Pepa, Kash Doll, Lil Uzi Vert, SAINt JHN, SZA, Jonas Brothers, John Legend, Lil Tecca, Aminé, Dame D.O.L.L.A, G-Eazy, BROCKHAMPTON, Cordae, Joyner Lucas, and more.
