Despite initially wanting several hip-hop songs, the only cleared track was a song by Lil Wayne.The difficulty stemmed from the complexities of obtaining rights not only from the current artists and publishers but also from those involved in any sampled music within the songs. Budget constraints further limited the soundtrack’s options. He wrote on X:"Clearing hip hop music was really tough. I had a Lil Wayne song I wanted on there as well as others. To clear a song what has sampled music, you have to get the rights to not only the current artist and publisher but also the rights of the sample (artist and publisher) Getting in contact and a response with all those people is one challenge. Working with a budget also made that a real challenge. Hope this helps. I know we can get a better balance. Hope to get to help with next years game and make that happen."The final playlist features a mix of genres including rap, rock, country, and some nostalgic tracks, aiming to reflect both the sport’s diverse fan base and the history of NASCAR games.
