Activision has released a remix of Wu-Tang Clan's "C.R.E.A.M." for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. Lee Young-ji participated in the recording and music video, and the game officially launches on all platforms on October 23.
Where the song is used in the game depends on the version. The original track plays during the opening cinematic, while the remix is featured in the end credits sequence. The remixed audio track has been released on major music streaming platforms worldwide via Epic Records.
This collaboration was inspired by Korea, the game's new setting. Korean hip-hop artists participated to deliver rap verses in both English and Korean, with co-production handled by Wu-Tang Clan leader RZA and Martin Wave of Parasol Music.
The music video alternates between gameplay footage and Lee Young-ji's rap performance filmed in various locations across Seoul. Lee Young-ji performs against everyday backdrops, including convenience stores.
Director Gustavo, who handled the live-action filming, is affiliated with Third Eye Video. He has previously directed music videos for artists such as Jaurim, HANRORO, and XLOV, as well as live performance clips for SEVENTEEN's BSS, &TEAM, and NCT U.
