Though EA Sports has yet to release a detailed track list for NBA Elite 11 they have now announced the details behind the soundtrack for the game having gone away from the norm of featuring a number of artists. We’ve known for quite some time that 9th Wonder was composing the soundtrack but he, along with J. Cole, delivered every song that will be featured in the game.

Grammy Award Winning Producer and DJ, 9th Wonder, and Roc Nation star MC, J. Cole, have created the soundtrack for NBA Elite 11. The game will include a full soundtrack designed by 9th Wonder and title track “The Plan” by J. Cole. This is the first EA Sports NBA title to have a custom soundtrack that has been created solely by two artists.

“Being the first artist to throw down the full soundtrack for NBA Elite 11was pretty amazing,” says 9th Wonder. “I was able to mesh together the two things that I love in life, basketball and music.”

J. Cole, the first MC to be signed onto JAY-Z’s Roc Nation label, is on a path to becoming the next big name in the Hip Hop industry. Embarking on his passion for music at age 12, J. Cole draws inspiration from some of the biggest names in Hip Hop to create his own signature style. Currently recording and producing his first album under the Roc Nation label, the critically acclaimed Cole has already appeared on JAY-Z’s “The Blueprint 3” on the song fittingly titled “A Star is Born”.

“As a big sports video game fan, it’s an honor to be a part of EA SPORTS NBA ELITE 2011. I thank EA for trusting in me to create the game’s main song. I truly enjoyed the experience.”

Thanks for the heads up. I guess some folks won't be too pleased with that news, frankly it doesn't bother me as the soundtrack always fades into the background after a while and there's usually at least a couple of tracks I like well enough.

hopefully we get a taste of it in the demo, but I can't say I'm that pleased with having them do the entire soundtrack. I like to collect all of the songs in NBA games and listen to them while I mod and I usually branch off of the soundtracks to find new artists each year.

I do really like the song The Plan. I want this as an .mp3 and for phone ringtine.
