To start, I like to go with a classic pump-up song, Eminem’s Till I Collapse. It starts off pretty soft and then slowly builds up, bringing you along with it as you go from resting state to being ready to kick somebody’s ass. Second is Kevin Rudolf and Lil Wayne’s Let It Rock. Great way to get the adrenaline flowing for the game. Sometimes I like to go with just the instrumental version if I’m looking to get really ready. Another good hype song to get you in the mood to play is KJ-52’s Gameface featuring Kb and Soul Glow Activator. For hype songs, I think that loud electronic music works really well, with a strong beat to get you into it. Fourth song on my list is Big K.R.I.T.’s See Me On Top, which I found from a Jon Bois video. It’s fun to listen to and really gets you in the mood to do something impressive. Finally, my all-time favorite pump-up song. It comes from my childhood, when I would go to Nationals games with my father. This song would play before every game right before they announced the game’s lineup. They played the same song at my university before football games, and it’s very popular so I guess that’s no surprise. The song is Thunderstruck by AC/DC. No other song has the ability to get me as pumped up to knock somebody out as this one. Perfection.
