On one side, Cardi B's signature brash rap delivery; on the other, Fuerza Regida's experiment weaving Mexican folk into trap rhythms—two wildly different styles, added to the same album's tracklist on the same day. That's exactly what makes Grand Theft Auto 6: The Album so interesting right now.
Rockstar Games announced this self-titled album last month, with the official press release describing it as featuring "34 original songs" from "some of the most notable and genre-spanning artists," set to launch alongside the Vice City and Leonida worlds of GTA6. This Friday (October 9), two new tracks were released: Cardi B's "Don't Chart" and Fuerza Regida's "Suzuki." The former continues her signature bold rap style, while the latter has been described as a trap folk track with a strong groove.
Before these two songs, the album had already released six tracks, including Travis Scott's "RHYNO," Morgan Wallen's "Last Thing You Need," and Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards' "Bright Lights, Big City." With these two new additions, the confirmed tracklist now totals eight songs:
Yung Lean — "That's It (feat. Future & Metro Boomin)"
Travis Scott — "RHYNO"
CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, PinkPantheress, Fred again.. & Etienne de Crécy — "Sexy Magic"
Morgan Wallen — "Last Thing You Need"
Rauw Alejandro — "Macacoa 2000"
Keith Richards — "Bright Lights, Big City"
Cardi B — "Don't Chart"
Fuerza Regida — "Suzuki"
This lineup itself makes a statement about curation: from Swedish rapper Yung Lean and Argentine duo CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, to the Rolling Stones and reggaeton star Rauw Alejandro, almost no two songs follow the same market logic. The official press release positions this album as something that will launch alongside "a next-generation evolution of in-game radio stations, dynamic scoring, and interactive music mechanics."
Radio System Gets an Upgrade Too—Listen via Headphones or Phone
Just one day before the new tracks dropped (October 8), Rockstar Games revealed the first six in-game radio stations for GTA6, confirming that players will now be able to keep listening via headphones or phone even outside their vehicle. The official statement says the game will feature its "largest and most genre-diverse" music lineup to date, along with on-demand podcast content.
Both Grand Theft Auto 6 and Grand Theft Auto 6: The Album are set to launch simultaneously on November 19, with the tracklist expected to keep expanding ahead of release.
