Suicide Squad. Suicide Squad. Suicide Squad. Those are the two words on everyoneâs minds right now. After so many posters, clips, and dead pigs sent via Jared Leto, the much-hyped film finally arrives on Friday. In anticipation of all the entertaining supervillain debauchery in store, the Suicide Squad team revealed a track from its upcoming soundtrack. As NME reports, this one’s a heavy-hitting collaboration between The Black Keysâ Dan Auerbach and surname rhyme buddies, Mark Ronson and Action Bronson.
The track, which debuted today on Zane Loweâs Beats 1 radio show, features samples from Oran âJuiceâ Jonesâ 1986 hit, âThe Rain.â Atop those old school beats are Bronsonâs incisive verse, Auerbachâs bluesy voice, Ronsonâs pop sensibilities, and a smooth Danger Mouse-esque production.
Ronson appeared on the show to talk about how the track ended up in the film. âIt just never had a home. We didnât finish it in time for Bronsonâs record, it really wasnât right for mine, and then they heard it for the movie,â he explained. âThey dug it and they put it in this great scene with Will Smith and his character [Deadshot].â
The producer didnât actually get to see the film, or even the âgreat sceneâ with Deadshot, but heâs as pumped about Suicide Squad as the rest of the world. âItâs obviously one of the movies Iâm most psyched about seeing.â
The new track appears fourth on a soundtrack (full tracklist below) that features a ton of big names. Skrillex. Eminem. Even CCR makes an appearance. Check out the new track above, let us know your thoughts in the comments, and weâll see you at the theater on Friday!
