Ladies and gentlemen, this music is crap.
I'd really like to write culturally, and respect other people's tastes. But no. Listening to the playlist of tracks from this piece, I realised. This is the real ♥♥♥♥. Who the ♥♥♥♥ was in charge of the music? Where's the rock? Where's Metal? Where's adequate dubstep? Why not add the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ phonk that was on the hype? What are they looking at?

Lmao, ♥♥♥♥ people's tastes, if music composition was subjective then every high school band would be Van Halen.

The soundtrack in Unbound is garbage because it sounds like the type of thing you'd hear in every post-9/11 teenager's playlist. It was not curated at all, nobody cared about choosing a soundtrack that actually gives the game some identity, they just grabbed whatever trending songs they could find on Spotify that would also fit into their game budget.

The same is true for the last 5 or so games, though exactly why the soundtrack has been getting worse each time I'm not entirely sure. I guess music in general is just getting worse.

It's a great soundtrack. It's made for hip hop heads ouch, it must hurt you. I whole heartedly love the music and the vibe.

i don't like EVERY song but i think it SORT of fits within what they made, less so than Heat's Coast vibe, but it doesn't drive me insane like some other soundtracks i have had to listen to

Nice cope, but Most Wanted had hip hop as well and people loved it, all 16 million of them.

I can't believe there are people defending the sound track. I cannot think of a worse soundtrack in any game or movie.

This is the feedback link to the EA Games page, if you can improve it, I would be grateful. Thank you very much in advance.

And Underground 1, which to me is still the best NFS soundtrack that I've ever heard.

You forgot to mention the dialogue, the story, the characters, and the cardboard physics...

It's like they took a bunch of trendy phrases people say and spliced some conversation around, mention a wrench and a screw every once in awhile because "like cars n stuff, so lit".

The phrases aren't even used correctly. You can tell this game was made for Americans but the problem is the developers are from the middle east and they have little to no context about how teenagers live and talk. The music choices were because they couldn't afford licenses to real artists or songs. There's a lot of things they either couldn't afford or were too lazy to put in and it shows at every corner in the game. Hell, the American flag is the very last flag option to choose from and the first 3 pages are "who I like to bang" flags. The dialogue is so boring and cringey, it's mostly about feelings and arguing in a game that really doesn't need any dialogue. It makes you feel like you're listening to bad live action Nickelodeon show while you're driving.
