Treachery In Beatdown City has the best theme song everBEATDOWN! (Beatdown)
BEATDOWN! (Beatdown)
I somehow missed the fact thatTreachery In Beatdown Cityhas its own full length theme, and it is the greatest thing that has ever happened.
I’d glimpsed the trailer, but I think I had my headphones off or skimmed it out of habit (most trailers are not very good or clear and after looking at hundreds every week, I mean, I’m not apologising). And it’s good. It’s really good. But that’s not all.

Consider this a formal announcement that henceforth, I will review no game that does not have a dedicated hip hop anthem with a title drop. Where to begin? Never mind the music: my words will sublimate in its shadow. Perhaps let’s start then with the opening lines, which include couplets that a better civilisation would engrave on monuments.
“They call me when ninja people attack the streetMy president’s black and y’all gon' give him back to meI spend half the week trainin' and doin' tournamentsI spar with gangbangers with janky shurikens”
I fight when gangs attack me , I fight to hail a taxi
I cannot stress enough how much I love this tune. It is perfect. If I ever marry, know that in my heart I am already wed to this glorious verse:
“I fight like big companies over business strugglesOr anime heroes do when they friends in troubleIt ain’t gotta be noble, I fight for stupid reasonsI’ll find a reason to fight against human breathin’If I’m on your block you need to tell a doctorI’m hella big and I’m about to punch a helicopter”
