2K Games has found a way to get the name Pharrell Williams on the cover of 2K15.
The rapper and song writer has been signed up to curate the most extensive and unique soundtrack compilation in NBA 2K franchise history” for the game.
"It was a cool experience,” Williams said of his new job. I tried to curate songs that were diverse but yet still proved to be motivational to gamers. It was important to me that the music complemented the on-court action of NBA basketball in NBA 2K15. I hope everyone enjoys it."
NBA 2K’s VP or marketing Alfie Brody added: "Pharrell’s passion and reputation as a visionary producer and expertise from working with the NBA will be evident in the largest and most eclectic NBA 2K soundtrack ever.
We really listened to our fans’ feedback on how we could improve their experience from a music standpoint, and we’re confident Pharrell’s collaboration in NBA 2K15 will impress players as much as it’s impressed us."
Remember that hip-hop’s Jay Z was the ‘executive producer of NBA 2K13. We reckon the safe money is on Robin Thicke serving as dolly grip on NBA 2K17.
