My Updated Soundtrack Wish List (taking suggestions)

ok, so over the past year I have been constantly updating and changing my soundtrack wish list taking inspirations from other NFS soundtracks and listening to fan suggestions to see what would fit best with a street racing game like Payback. everything in my wishlist as far as I could find is no older than 7 years old. id describe my wish list as a combination of Undercover, The Run, Carbon, Most Wanted (2005), Underground 1, 2, NFS 2015, a splash of the Need for Speeds from the 90's, and a splash of its own uniqueness so, let's get this started, shall we?

the hardest one to do was definitely the rap and grime. id say the guitar based stuff was easier than I expected though. and the electronic and experimental stuff was harder than I expected it to be. it's not big deal if none of this makes it into the game, it's still a good listen. and maybe a good consideration for the next game. the hardest part was actually deciding what to genre them as since some of the songs are hybrid songs/ not really something I could genre easily, oh also I tried my best to tweak the list to fit the Las Vegas area and the story of revenge. I hope you like my choices. 

if you comment a song with why you think it would fit and if I think it fits the racing, the story, or the setting I might add it to the list with your name beside it. 

-- EDIT -- 

you all can still request what you want. it just wont go on my list if it doesnt meet the requirements that every NFS has set, those requirements being 

  • No songs older than 8 years of age (that is actually very liberal age acceptance in comparison to all other NFS games which for the most part only had songs from the last 3 years in the game), however remixes that are no older than 8 years old are OK. so if you want a song from the 90s in my list you can always just throw a remix of that song and it may get on my list. and in terms of covers of older songs those are OK as well, the only rule there is the covers must introduce something new to the original song.
  • the songs must fit the theme of the game. people get so mad when i tell them their song does not fit the game, but i must tell you, i am not denying the songs because i dislike them, some of them are really good songs. i just cant have an inconsistent tie between the soundtrack list and the actual game, if it does not work with the game, than it will make the experience worse.
  • songs must not use excessive amounts of cuss words, yes this includes "H E L L" a few cuss words here and there is fine, but excessive use of the words that would cause the censoring to censor every other word is when i have to say no to a song.
  • there should be next to no political commentary in songs you request. mild political commentary is OK, but extreme political commentary in a requested song will be denied from this list. 
  • preferably nothing extremely mainstream, of course there will be exceptions to that, but for the most part if the mainstream song you picked meets the upper criteria i will have no issue adding it to my wish list. 

you may think these guidelines are stupid, but trust me, these are not my guidelines, all of these "rules" are there to retain the tradition NFS has set for its self ever since the beginning. the rules are also set in place so that nothing extremely vulgar gets requested and to make sure that peoples beliefs are not attacked whether you believe one thing or the other.
