Hit-Boy will be handling the soundtrack for Madden 23 and providing 33 exclusive beats for cinematics to be used in the game.

“Madden been one of my great loves since day one,” Hit-Boy said in a trailer for the game. “Like music, I just couldn’t escape my obsession for the game. The way it brought to life the sights and sounds and feelings of a Sunday. The unforgettable music the game gave us.”

He continued: “Even in the studio where I created Grammy-winning records, the game was never too far away. Now my worlds collide as I curate the sounds of Madden 23.”

Curating the soundtrack for Madden 23 continues a notable hot-streak for Hit-Boy, whose recently notched credits on Beyoncé’s Renaissance, Nas‘ King’s Disease 2, and more. He also just served as executive producer for The Game‘s new album, Drillmatic: Heart Vs. Mind.
