Winning artist SAMMY STANZA says, “I make music for the kid that feels like they never had a voice and are always living in the shadows, so having my track added to the NBA 2K22 soundtrack to be heard by gamers around the world is a dream come true. I hope my music inspires others to be themselves and express themselves creatively.”

SoundCloud and NBA 2K vetted over 15,000 artists before handpicking 20 winning artists to be featured on the NBA 2K soundtrack.
