The NBA Live franchise is still trying to gain ground on the massive success that is NBA 2K. EA Sports’ next entry, NBA Live 18, faces an uphill battle against its 2K Sports counterpart but one thing it can boast about is its soundtrack.
EA unveiled the musical lineup for this year’s iteration, which is stacked with some of the top names in Hip Hop. Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Lil Uzi Vert, 2 Chainz, Rick Ross and Kid Cudi are just a few of the prominent artists featured in the game. Emerging acts like Aminé, Kamaiyah, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and Kyle are also included.

LMAO, yet ANOTHER L for broke ass Nas. Doesn’t he know that the NBA 2K series are more popular than the NBA Live series now? It’s been that way for almost a decade. Even King HOV knows that, he was the producer for NBA 2K13. Ask Russell Simmons why broke ass Nas will forever stay behind on schedule?
Wow. U took the biggest L on this one
How does Nas take an L here? He also has a song on 2k18. Artists don’t lose by getting paid to have their music used in a game. Especially if they have a song on both games. It doesn’t matter which one sales better he already got paid just to use it. So u take this L… And STFU. Ignorant mfer.
*sells* better..
