"Entourage 2015" Soundtrack Lyrics

“Entourage (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)” Soundtrack Description

Overview

How do you scale eight seasons of swagger to a two-hour victory lap? The film leans on a high/low collage: classic rock muscle, mid-2010s festival EDM, and hip-hop chest-thumps, bound by the show’s calling card—needle-drops that feel like punchlines. The album collects 14 cuts; the film itself uses several dozen, often as quick, editorial stingers.

Two anchors bookend the ride. Up front, Royal Blood’s “Figure It Out” and Jane’s Addiction’s “Superhero” return the franchise pulse. Over the end credits, a previously unreleased Tom Petty song, “Somewhere Under Heaven,” closes on a surprisingly warm note. Apple Music lists the compilation as a WaterTower Music release on June 2, 2015. WaterTower Music also publishes the official 14-song lineup.

Questions & Answers

Is there an official soundtrack album?

Yes. Entourage (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) released June 2, 2015 via WaterTower Music (digital/CD/vinyl). Apple Music confirms date and label.

Who supervised the music?

Scott Vener, the series’ longtime curator, returned as music supervisor for the feature.

What song plays over the end credits?

Tom Petty’s “Somewhere Under Heaven,” an unreleased Wildflowers-era track first issued the day of the film’s release.

What’s the opening one-two?

Royal Blood’s “Figure It Out” into Jane’s Addiction’s “Superhero” (series theme) across the opening and main titles.

Which track scores Ari’s Ferrari flex?

OB O’Brien’s “Schemin’ Up” (often misattributed to Drake) needle-drops when Ari celebrates with gifts.

Does the movie use any classic rock?

Yes—The Who’s “Eminence Front” (awards-entrance swagger) and The Rolling Stones’ “Beast of Burden” in a late-film car scene, among others.

Are all featured songs on the retail album?

No. The album is a 14-track snapshot; several placements (e.g., Petty’s closer) are used in the film but not on the retail disc.

Notes & Trivia

• WaterTower Music issued the album; a limited vinyl followed that summer.
• “Somewhere Under Heaven” premiered the same day as the U.S. release; the closing-credits use was locked via Rick Rubin’s circle.
• Marketing reused Yogi & Pusha T’s “Burial” in trailers for both Entourage and HBO’s Ballers.
• The film packs 50+ cues; the album trims to 14 for flow.
• Series DNA persists: end-credits picks and bravura needle-drops remain Scott Vener’s signature.

Genres & Themes

Hip-hop braggadocio — confidence, cash, and consequence. Hooks from Jim Jones and N.O.R.E. turn deal beats into crowd energy. When Ari storms a room, the drum programming tends to arrive first.

Festival-era electronic — Diplo/DJ Snake and A-Trak supply adrenaline for montages and party build-ups; four-on-the-floor becomes the film’s “go” signal.

Classic rock gravitas — The Who and the Stones sell legacy and spectacle, especially during red-carpet and late-film gut checks.

Indie/emotional ballast — The National’s “I Need My Girl” underlines family priorities; Tom Petty’s closer reframes the finale with reflective grace.

Music–Story Links

• Entrance grammar: Big scenes announce themselves—“Eminence Front” at awards night, “Schemin’ Up” for celebratory spending—so the audience “reads” power before anyone speaks.
• Panic vs. pose: “Darkness” rides the moment Vince blinks; synth moodiness punctures the film’s otherwise unflappable surface.
• Queens ballast: ’90s and 2000s rap cues (“Give Up the Goods,” “Superthug”) keep Turtle and Drama grounded when the plot goes Hollywood-surreal.
• Family reset: “I Need My Girl” shifts focus from fame to fatherhood, prepping the gentle Petty coda.

How It Was Made

Supervisor & brief: Scott Vener returned to balance discovery with iconography—festival EDM for propulsion, deep-cut rap for texture, heritage rock for spectacle. The FADER ran a contemporaneous Q&A with Vener and Doug Ellin about locking the Petty closer.

Album & formats: WaterTower Music issued digital/CD on June 2, 2015; vinyl followed that summer. Film Music Reporter previewed the lineup and release plan.

Marketing: GQ noted HBO used Yogi & Pusha T’s “Burial” across trailers—an unmistakable, heavy-hit ad signature.
