Pharrell has quite the extensive resumé. After scoring movies like Despicable Me and The Amazing Spiderman 2, the mega producer is bringing his talents to the video game world. This morning 2K Sports announced that the “Happy” crooner will curate the soundtrack of their upcoming title, NBA 2K15. Following in the familiar footsteps of Jay Z and LeBron James, Skateboard P will hand-select a playlist, which he intends to cater to both girls and guys.

“You know what? There are girls that play the game and there’s a lot of girls that are around it because their boyfriends play it or their friends play it,” he told Complex. “So I thought it’d be such an interesting twist to have the girls weigh in on the song list, because they’re the ones that listen to it, they listen to it just as much. So I was just trying to pick like an alternative approach, you know, because how do you follow up like LeBron and Jay? You gotta take a different route.”

He couldn’t give the full details of the soundtrack yet – it will be unveiled later this summer – Pharrell did say that he’s picked songs from System of a Down and Strafe. NBA 2K15 hits shelves October 7 with MVP Kevin Durant gracing the cover.
