It's no 'Indestrucible', but then nothing isMusic has always been an important part of fighting games ? from setting the tone, to providing the backbeat of the fight, to being dynamically controlled by the in-game action, perhaps best realized in the excellent 2012 fighter, Killer Instinct. And so, the reveal of a new fighting title's theme song is something of a big deal, as it often reflects the entire vibe and aesthetic that will form the core of the game's mood.
Capcom has partnered with legendary music mag Rolling Stone (https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/twitch-street-fighter-6-music-video-1364740/) to debut the full version of the official theme song to Street Fighter 6. "Not On The Sidelines" performed by artists Rocco808 and Randy Marx, is an aggressive hip-hop track that reflects not only Street Fighter 6's "back to the streets" approach to the franchise, but also emphasizes both the competition and the strive to push past boundaries and self-doubt to become the best on the block, reminiscent of the halcyon days of arcade centers and queues of quarters.
It's music, and as such it will not be for everyone. Y'all know how old yer boy is, and back in my day musicians didn't have numbers in their names... Maybe 808 State... oh, and Jurassic 5... oh, and Level 42... and Haircut 100. But I digress, you can check out Not On The Sidelines right now over on the official Rolling Stone page (https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/twitch-street-fighter-6-music-video-1364740/). (The video was also unofficially reupped to YouTube by user Sakura buff when.)
