EA Sports has always been a leader in sporting video games for years now. In fact, they seem to have a stranglehold on the genre. As a result, they are able to license songs that other companies just simply don't have the money (nor the time) to do. Take the latest NBA game; for the soundtrack, Mick Boogie (mixtape master) has compiled an album of talent that showcases rising stars (B.o.B., Mickey Factz), semi-old stars (Dead Prez, Xzibit), and old school stars (De La Soul, Pete Rock). Among the highs and lows (and insistent editing (seems as though half the words in the English language were deemed "dirty" when editing this thing)), are only a few tracks worth checking out. Kind of a letdown when one looks at the tracklist and thinks of what could have been.
