2K Sports Announces Jay-Z as NBA 2K13 Executive Producer, 24 Song Soundtrack Included

[Jimbo614]

To tell the truth, I've never been a big Jay-Z fan of his music;
That being said, I was just knocked out by his imput of the new Brooklyn Nets look.
So I have to respect his Artistic talents on some level.
I just hope his imput on 2K is more in line with his Nets, and less with some of his songwriting.

Looks like I will be going through the menus on mute, they should have kept the underground tracks. Jay is awful.

If you don't want to hear the music, just turn on your ipod and listen to those songs that you like.

I honestly hope that 2k releases more details on 2k13 soon, because the game is already coming out in 2 months and it seems they didn't release that many details about the game yet. They've only shown 1 video of gameplay for 2k13. Ea released Madden 13 details all the way back in April, 4 months before release. 2k still hasn't released that many details about the game and it's coming out in 2 months.

All you guys gotta do is think about what you want for .. I mean tons of people were complaining about how all 2k's music is terrible and they gave us better music .. The announcement was not at all what we were expecting but I mean just watch what we all ask for another example is last year with 2k11 we had all the current free agents then we complained about it and 2k removed all of them ..
I can tell 2k13 should be a good game they realized what they did wrong with 2k12 and the 2k13 gameplay trailer wasn't perfect but it looked nice and playable.

I agree with you on everything you said. But I wish 2k never removed all of those free agents because they would've helped us make more accurate classic roster because we could have cyberfaces instead of created players. 2k should of hid them because in 2k10 when they removed Rasheed Wallace, Brent Barry, Steve Francis, Etc. they were still in the disk but hidden. In 2k12, the players removed from 2k11, weren't on the disk at all. People complain too much. 2k gives them what they ask for and they still complain.

This would be a really cool announcement, if they hadn't built up our hopes for some kind of earth-shattering, gameplay innovation over the last few weeks.

I expect this kind of stuff from EA, but not you 2K. I'm going to let this one slide, but don't let it happen again guys. lol

I'm starting to think this is going to have to do with more than music. A lot of us maybe jumped the gun on this one thinking it was strictly about music. I'll wait until I see the actual game before making any more assumptions.
