i like how they kept underground rappers for the soundtrack of the game. this time they actually got some notable names like common,redman and skillz. its weird how these soundtracks for both games fit the game itself. for example, nba live its the more famous "commercial" basketball game with up and coming big name artist while 2k6 is the lesser known game(underground) with artist from the undergroup rap game. anywas here is the track listing:
1. "Schoolyard Scrimage Intro" - RJD2
2. "Big Money Talk" - Lyrics Born
3. "That's Why I'm Here" - Redman
4. "Excellent" - Blackalicious
5. "Carolina Agents" - Little Brother
6. "Set 'Em On Fire" - The Roots
7. "Doin' My Job" - Aceyalone
8. "Throw It In Ya Grill" - Hieroglyphics
9. "The Movement" - Common
10. "The Jam" - Jean Grae
11. "Ride" - Zion I
12. "Junkyard" - Aesop Rock
13. "2K6" - Skillz
14. "Schoolyard Scrimage Outro" - RJD2
