It’s clear the direction that EA wants to take their soundtrack music choices for the Madden franchise. Forget hip-hop…it’s all about the rock anthem. EA has officially announced their Madden 2011 soundtrack which features 23 tracks that recreate the ultimate live gameday experience via a collection of crowd favorites, stadium classics, and official NFL team fight songs. Kevin Rudolf and Lil’ Wayne’s “Let It Rock” and the Yin Yang Twins “Halftime” are the only two hip-hop tracks to make the cut as the rest of the soundtrack leans towards classic anthem hits like Guns N Roses “Welcome to the Jungle” and AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck.” But no worries hip-hop fans….EA has big plans for their revamped “NBA Elite” franchise and the respective soundtrack.
