The tracklist for the Creed II soundtrack has been released and it features some homegrown talent. The sequel to the boxing drama will include tracks from Ella Mai and Ama Lou.
Ella Mai will provide the yet to be released track “Love Me Like That (Champion Love)” to the film’s star-studded soundtrack. This new track follows the release of her self-titled debut album in October which housed the smash hit “Boo’d Up” and the smooth follow up single “Trip”. Listen to Ella Mai’s album here.
Young artist Ama Lou will appear on the track “Bless Me”. The song is not out yet but based off of her “Tried Up” performance for Colors which you can watch here, “Bless Me” is sure to offer the artist’s soulful and unique vocals. Ama Lou was listed as one of Drake’s inspirations and influencers during his creative process for his recent solo album, Scorpion. The UK hailing artist is also making waves with her EP DDD that housed the songs “Tried Up”, “Wrong Lesson” and “Wire”.
Ella Mai and Ama Lou appear on the Creed II soundtrack alongside American Hip-Hop artists such as Lil Wayne, Nas, Rick Ross, J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar. The soundtrack will also be likely to include some trap influenced songs due to appearances from 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Young Thug and Juicy J. The soundtrack is executively produced by Mike Will Made-It.
