GTA 6 NEWS · EXTENDED LOOK SOUNDTRACK

Every Song in GTA 6’s Extended Look — from Phil Collins and Cliff Richard to Sexyy Red and Kodak Black

Grand Theft Auto has always been as much a radio station as a video game, and GTA 6’s 26-minute Extended Look made that literal. Within half an hour of the Netflix premiere, listeners had picked apart every licensed track Rockstar threaded through the footage — fourteen songs that swing from Miami rap and dembow to ’80s soft rock, synth-pop, and one unmistakable power ballad blaring in an elevator. If you missed a lyric in the gunfire, here’s the complete list, plus what the selection tells us about the radios of Leonida.

What Happened: 14 Songs, Identified in Under 30 Minutes

When Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look hit Netflix on August 26, the audio nerds went to work immediately. Culture site Modern Notoriety was among the first to post a full tracklist on X, and both IGN and Polygon have since confirmed the fourteen songs that appear across the 26 minutes of footage. Some play as obvious needle drops — Jason riding an elevator to Phil Collins, an extended Lucia segment scored by Cliff Richard — while others fight for space under shootouts, sirens and the general violence of a life of crime.

Rockstar hasn’t yet said which of these will land on actual in-game radio stations versus serving purely as trailer music, so treat this as the official marketing mixtape rather than a confirmed station lineup. But if GTA history is any guide, the curation is the message.

Here are all fourteen songs featured in the Extended Look, as catalogued by IGN and Polygon:

Phil Collins in an Elevator: How Rockstar Uses These Songs

The placements are doing quiet storytelling work. Phil Collins’ “Against All Odds” scores Jason in an elevator — the kind of wry, self-serious slow burn Rockstar has loved since Vice City made an art of it. Cliff Richard’s “Devil Woman” stretches across an extended Lucia sequence. The rap selections — Birdman and Lil Wayne’s “Pop Bottles,” Sexyy Red’s “Pound Town,” Kodak Black’s “Skrilla” — map directly onto the Florida the game is recreating: Pompano Beach-born Kodak and St. Louis-to-Miami energy Sexyy Red aren’t random picks, they’re geography.

And then there’s the curveball tier: Depeche Mode, Prefab Sprout, Captain & Tennille, The Bellamy Brothers, Def Leppard’s “Love Bites.” It’s an eclectic range that refuses to skew toward any single genre or generation — which Polygon notes is exactly how Rockstar has always treated its radio dial, now applied to pre-launch marketing. The message: whatever your taste, Leonida has a station for you. It’s the same inclusive instinct behind the game’s deep customization — letting you shape Lucia and Jason’s look, their romance, and how you spend your time. The radio is just one more way to make the world yours.

The Florida Rap Tier

The first bloc is pure geography. Birdman and Lil Wayne’s “Pop Bottles” carries the Cash Money DNA that soundtracked actual Miami club circuits for two decades. Sexyy Red and Tay Keith’s “Pound Town” is the current era’s charter — the St. Louis star has become one of Florida’s most-streamed imports, and reporting around Rockstar’s Dazed feature already name-checked her as part of the city’s living soundtrack. And Kodak Black’s “Skrilla” is the deepest cut of all: Pompano Beach is barely an hour up I-95 from Miami, making him about as Leonida as a licensed artist can get. When Rockstar says it researched the sound of modern South Florida, these three picks are the receipts.

The Soft-Rock Nostalgia Tier

Then the dial swings hard the other way. The Bellamy Brothers’ “Let Your Love Flow” (1976), Cliff Richard’s “Devil Woman” (1976), Captain & Tennille’s “But I Think It’s a Dream,” Def Leppard’s “Love Bites” (1987), and Phil Collins’ “Against All Odds” (1984) form a soft-rock and power-ballad bloc that could have aired on the original Vice City’s Flash FM without a single edit. That’s the point. Modern Leonida is a new city, but the GTA: Vice City lineage — where the ’80s dial was the personality — clearly still lives in Rockstar’s music supervision. Collins is practically series royalty at this point; the man has been the soundtrack of Florida melancholy since “In the Air Tonight.”

Synth-Pop, Dance and Dembow

The middle of the Venn diagram belongs to Depeche Mode’s “People Are People” (1984) and Prefab Sprout’s “Cars and Girls” — the synth-and-sophisti-pop lane that made Wave 103 a fan-favorite station in 2002. And the modern edge gets two very different answers: the dance-floor tier (Chk Chk Chk’s “Off the Grid,” Aluna and Jayda G’s “Mine O’ Mine,” Elderbrook and Bob Moses’ “Inner Light”) reflects the electronic-music ecosystem Miami actually runs on, while Chimbala and Omega’s “Se Me Nota” imports dembow — the Dominican sound that dominates Caribbean radio across South Florida. Fourteen songs, five genres, zero filler: it’s the widest-spectrum trailer mix Rockstar has ever cut.

The Lineage: From Flash FM to the Sound of Leonida

A tracklist like this is a direct callback to 2002, when Grand Theft Auto: Vice City shipped with one of the greatest licensed soundtracks ever assembled — Flash FM, Emotion 98.3, Fever 105, Wave 103 — and effectively taught a generation ’80s pop history. The Extended Look’s mix of Phil Collins and Cliff Richard sits deliberately in that lineage. If you want the full deep-dive, our Love Fist to Only Raw Records: Music in Vice City retrospective covers how the original handled its dial.

For GTA 6’s modern-day Leonida, the groundwork was already laid: reporting around Rockstar’s Dazed feature confirmed the studio embedded a research team in Miami, tracing the sound of the city from Miami bass and Overtown to Kodak Black and Sexyy Red — a geography lesson we covered in our couple-mode breakdown. Hearing two of those exact names in the Extended Look’s official mix suggests the radio dial will follow the same map. If you’d rather hear the modern Vice City sound the trailers are drawing from, Sexyy Red’s albums are on Amazon — a crash course in the exact energy Leonida is promising.

What This Means for GTA 6

Fourteen songs across 26 minutes is a density we’ve never seen from a Rockstar marketing beat, and it’s a safe bet the full game’s soundtrack will be the largest in the studio’s history. The spread — trap, dembow, dance, soft rock, synth-pop — also hints at how wide the station list will be, and how much of Florida’s real musical geography (Miami bass, Latin dembow via Chimbala and Omega) made it in. We’ll be tracking every confirmed station as Rockstar reveals them.
