“I’m probably gonna get in trouble,” stated Jordan according to Complex. “Dreamville is executive producing this album.”
Creed II: The Album’s soundtrack received the Mike WiLL Made-It production treatment and featured artists like Lil Wayne, Crime Mob, Slim A$AP Rocky, Ari Lennox, J. Cole, Pharrell, Kendrick Lamar, and more. The compilation also featured frequent collaborator and composer Ludwig Göransson, who is currently gaining attention for “Con La Brisa” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever‘s soundtrack.
As of now, a release date or tracklist with featured artists for the Creed III soundtrack has not been revealed.
Reportedly, Creed III “follows the aftermath of Adonis’ success in both his career and family life. When his childhood friend and former boxing prodigy, Damian (Jonathan Majors) resurfaces after serving a long sentence in prison, he is eager to prove that he deserves his shot in the ring.”
The synopsis continues, “The former friends face off in the ring although there is more to their story than just a boxing match. Adonis Creed is then left with a hard decision to put his future on the line to battle Damian – a fighter who has nothing to lose.”

Excited to share the first trailer for Creed 3. To my cast & crew, thank you for working so hard to continue the legacy of the franchise.”
