The track list features everyone from R&B’s Usher to pop’s Kelly Clarkson to hip-hop’s The Roots. Even Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon is involved. Miranda clearly had no trouble finding talent and starpower interested in contributing.
In March, Miranda admitted as much, telling Vanity Fair, “People are coming out of the woodwork, knocking on the door.”
The variety of musicians he was able to attract should make for some interesting collaborations. For example, we’ll hear Sia join forces with Miguel and Queen Latifah on the song Satisfied. Another fun one will be Helpless, which reunites Ashanti and Ja Rule — remember their 2001 hit Always on Time? Other tracks ifeature such big names as John Legend and Wiz Khalifa.
After sharing the complete list, Miranda shared more insight on the project in a series of tweets, highlighting the hard work that went into it and sharing his excitement. “Each artist on here is a dream come true,” he wrote.
The Hamilton Mixtape will be available for pre-order Friday, November 4, so don’t expect Hamilton mania to die down anytime soon.
