Suicide Squad: The Album will be celebrated throughout the week on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Show with a series of exclusive interviews and “World Record” worldwide premieres. The week kicked off yesterday with the premiere of Kehlani’s “Gangsta” alongside a special interview with SUICIDE SQUAD writer/director David Ayer; Grimes will introduce her contribution to the soundtrack tomorrow with “Medieval Warfare;” followed by Panic!

Suicide Squad: The Album is already proving to be a record-breaking soundtrack with its first two singles simultaneously reaching the top 5 on the US iTunes chart, a feat unachieved by any other soundtrack to date. The highly-anticipated collection of unprecedented artist collaborations and previously unreleased material also includes the new smash singles “Heathens” from Twenty One Pilots (which has already reached top 5 at alternative radio) and “Sucker for Pain” from Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa & Imagine Dragons with Logic and Ty Dolla $ign (feat. X Ambassadors). The music videos for “Heathens” and “Sucker for Pain” – which both include never-before-released film footage – have over 91 million combined views on YouTube. Both tracks are currently climbing sales, streaming and radio charts globally with over 98.5 million combined streams worldwide. “Purple Lamborghini” by Skrillex & Rick Ross had its world premiere on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Show last week earning immediate acclaim from a wide range of media outlets. “As dope as you could imagine,” exclaimed Billboard. “This track is a monster,” raved Stereogum. “Purple Lamborghini” will be joined this Friday by an explosive companion video of its own – highlighted by a special appearance from SUICIDE SQUAD star Jared Leto as The Joker.
