(New York, New York and Santa Monica, California) – RCA Records teams up with global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF.A, LGF.B) to release the soundtrack for the highly anticipated feature film UNCLE DREW, which will be released on Lionsgate’s Summit Entertainment label on June 29, 2018. Some of the greatest rappers in the game today, A$AP Rocky, Gucci Mane and 21 Savage join forces to release “Cocky” featuring London On Da Track. The four artists are the first to sign onto the all-star line-up with additional artists to be announced soon.
“Cocky” was written by all four artists along with Hector Delgado and produced by London On Da Track. “Cocky” is available now at all digital providers via RCA Records.
After draining his life savings to enter a team in the Rucker Classic street ball tournament in Harlem, Dax (Lil Rel Howery) is dealt a series of unfortunate setbacks, including losing his team to his longtime rival (Nick Kroll). Desperate to win the tournament and the cash prize, Dax stumbles upon the man, the myth, the legend UNCLE DREW (NBA All-Star Kyrie Irving) and convinces him to return to the court one more time. The two men embark on a road trip to round up Drew’s old basketball squad (Shaquille O’Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller, Nate Robinson, and Lisa Leslie) and prove that a group of seniors can still win the big one.
After a successful five years as a fan-favorite digital episodic series, originally conceived by Pepsi, UNCLE DREW, will hit theaters June 29th. The digital series has garnered more than 150 million views on YouTube – the most watched basketball series in history.
UNCLE DREW from Lionsgate’s Summit Entertainment is also produced by Temple Hill in association with PepsiCo’s Creators League Studios.
