For a collaboration that will be included in the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse soundtrack, Metro Boomin has enlisted Don Toliver.
As part of a Hyundai and Spider-Verse animated commercial that released on Monday (May 15), a portion of Metro and Don’s hazy “Link Up” was featured.
“A new Hyundai commercial featuring “Link Up” with @DonToliver debuted today. On June 2, a soundtrack with entirely original songs drawn from the movie will be released. Metro posted a video and the hashtag #Metroverse on Twitter.
The hitmaker, who will also act as the project’s executive producer, believes it will be the “soundtrack of the year” for movies.
On June 2, when the eagerly anticipated animated Spider-Man movie hits theaters, fans can anticipate the Spider-Verse soundtrack to be released in its entirety.
It is a follow-up to the critically acclaimed Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse from 2018 and follows the saga of Miles Morales, a half-Black, half-Latino kid who has assumed the role of the fabled web-slinger.
Being the first Mother’s Day after his mother Leslie Wayne was fatally shot by her husband in June 2022, Metro had to endure the hardest Mother’s Day of his life throughout the weekend.
They had just recently celebrated Mother’s Day 2022 together when this happened, and in remembrance this year, Metro shared a picture of her from that day.
The producer wrote, “I recall Mother’s Day last year we rode together to go get some pizza and you really enjoyed the inside of this vehicle. “I felt your antennae rise when I told you I hadn’t truly driven it in years. You continued to talk about the truck, so I told you you could have it. When we returned, you were quite eager to snap a picture with it. I’m sure my youngest brother gets it from you because you were the QUEEN of photo ops.
“I know that’s where I get all of it from,” he said, “because you had so much personality and charisma, along with hustle and drive and humility and compassion. If only I had known that You would leave me a few weeks later. I hurt so terribly as I type this because I miss everything about you. For the past year, every morning I’ve woken up has felt like a nightmare that will never stop. With all in my heart and soul, I miss and love you.
Metro continued, “Going to do great things and dedicate it all back to You.” “Everyone, love your parents while they are here because they are the only ones we have. I can’t stress this enough. Happy Mother’s Day to all the Queens out there, and please know that you are not the only one experiencing this day without your Queen.
