Some sports games are not defined by their gameplay alone. Sometimes that's the culture they're selling. A good example of this is Jay-Z's soundtrack in NBA 2K13, which featured Mobb Deep's “Shook Ones” and Pheonix's “1901”, making the game much more enjoyable for music-loving basketball fans. Well, now is the time for them to judge the quality of the NBA 2K21 soundtrack.
In total, there are 52 confirmed songs coming to NBA 2K21. So far we know of 49 tracks with the other three confirmed to be unreleased songs by Damian Lillard.

Without a doubt, the soundtrack appears to be the most hip-pop heavy of all the games in the series. We know that the next gen edition of 2K21 will receive additional songs, but it is not known if the same can be said for the current gen edition. Players will be able to listen to the unreleased songs of Damian Lilliard when the latest installment launches on September 4 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch and PC.
