How come we don't get more rap/hip hop inspired game soundtracks? I mean, it's usually just limited to licensed songs and original stuff like the Mad World/Anarchy Reigns soundtracks are the big exception. Hell, even fighting games don't go for an urban sound (aside from Third Strike) despite the huge black audience fighting games have.

Nigger noise is too polarising. Hearing Tyrone and Jamal making monkey noises as soon as a game boots up will alienate users.

Let's just ignore the fact that it's one of the most, if not the most, streamed music genre (at least on Spotify)
The soundtrack was too good. I don't like Anarchy Reigns, but man the soundtrack is some of the best.
I've rather have J-rock play while I slay dragons and fuck duchesses and busty merchants.
Or hell, J-pop while I fight off a little girl in a mech armed with a nuke.
Holy shit, I got in before someone started posting the lyrics to every Knuckles song from SA2

And American Country music is the most popular FM radio format (besides talk); in both cases it says more about the userbase of the listening format than the music's overall popularity.

Yes, let's.

Two different demographics.

Real talk, Knuckles songs are better without the lyrics.

Because the only good hip-hop artist (Nujabes) died a long time ago.

Fuck yeah, meteor heard is terminally chilled without lyrics.
