’Creed II: The Album’ is out now via Interscope.
Ever since Bon Iver released 22, A Million in late 2016, fans have been clamoring for new music from Justin Vernon. Fortunately, he’s delivered on multiple occasions. Earlier this year, he debuted unreleased music live, and a few months ago, he released a joint project with The National’s Aaron Dessner under the name Big Red Machine. Now he’s released more new music, and this time, it comes via the Creed II: The Album, which was released today.
Bon Iver’s contribution to the record is an interlude-type track called “Do You Need Power? (Walk Out Music),” a soulful and short (it’s under two minutes) tune that, having not seen the movie, I imagine sets the mood for an emotionally intense moment.
Creed II: The Album, which was produced by Mike Will Made-It, has a lot to offer beyond Bon Iver, as it’s packed with new music from some big names. Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell collaborated on “ The Mantra,” and beyond that, there are also contributions from Lil Wayne, Vince Staples, Ella Mai, Schoolboy Q, Young Thug, Rae Sremmurd, Nas, and a whole bunch of others.
Mike Will previously said of the soundtrack:
