Kendrick Lamar Teams Up With Tame Impala

Kendrick Lamar
Arts Editor and Senior Writer (many years until 2012)

Kendrick Lamar and Tame Impala will rework Tame's 'Feels Like We Only Go Backwards' for the 'Divergent' soundtrack.


Up until now, my interest in the young-adult film 'Divergent' lay somewhere in between 'Nope, never heard of it' and 'Oh, no, wait a sec, I think I've heard of that one — it's the poor man's 'Hunger Games', yeah?' But that's all changed with the announcement of the film's soundtrack.

The film's photogenic teens/30-year-olds-pretending-to-be-teens will be fighting the power in a dystopian future Chicago to the sound of these tunes:

Zedd — 'Find You' [feat. Matthew Koma & Miriam Bryant]
Ellie Goulding — 'Beating Heart'
Pia Mia — 'Fight For You' [feat. Chance The Rapper]
Ellie Goulding — 'Hanging On' [I See MONSTAS remix]
Snow Patrol — 'I Won't Let You Go'
Woodkid — 'Run Boy Run'
Tame Impala & Kendrick Lamar — 'Backwards'
M83 — 'I Need You'
A$AP Rocky — 'In Distress' [feat. Gesaffelstein]
Pretty Lights — 'Lost And Found' [ODESZA remix]
Skrillex — 'Stranger' [feat. KillaGraham From Milo & Otis & Sam Dew]
Big Deal — 'Dream Machines'
Ellie Goulding — 'Dead In The Water'

With deluxe exclusives:

Woodkid — 'I Love You'
BANKS — 'Waiting Game'
Ellie Goulding — 'My Blood'

The soundtrack's out on March 11; the film itself won't be released in Australia until April 10.
