The backend never sleeps.

A metadata slip on Spotify’s pre-save page for Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album just revealed two of the remaining unannounced artists before Rockstar or Atlantic could say a word.

Track 10 is apparently Fuerza Regida. Track 19 is Cardi B.

The names showed up under the placeholder slots long enough for trackers to screenshot them before Spotify scrubbed the page and put the generic placeholders back. Classic streaming-service leak energy.

The current 34-track album picture

Here’s the current picture of the 34-track album with the new names slotted in:

  • Track 2: Yung Lean feat. Future & Metro Boomin – “That’s It”
  • Track 4: Travis Scott – “RHYNO” (prod. Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo)
  • Track 5: CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, PinkPantheress, Fred again.. & Étienne de Crécy – “Sexy Magic”
  • Track 8: Morgan Wallen – “Last Thing You Need”
  • Track 10: Fuerza Regida (leaked)
  • Track 11: Rauw Alejandro – “Macacoa 2000”
  • Track 19: Cardi B (leaked)
  • Track 32: Keith Richards – “Bright Lights, Big City”

Cardi B and Fuerza Regida landing on the same original album is a pretty clear signal. Rockstar is leaning hard into the Latin and urban sounds that actually define modern South Florida. Lucia’s background, the setting, the culture — it’s all reflected in the music choices. Pairing a global superstar like Cardi with one of the biggest regional Mexican acts right now feels intentional, not random.

Next singles wave ahead of schedule

Industry chatter is already saying this leak means the next wave of singles could drop later this week. Rockstar and Atlantic have been drip-feeding the album since mid-September. This looks like the next phase getting ahead of schedule thanks to a messy Spotify update.

Key Points

  • Spotify metadata leak names Cardi B and Fuerza Regida
  • They appear as Track 19 and Track 10 on the 34-song album
  • Strong continued focus on Latin and urban sounds
  • Next singles wave possibly coming soon
  • Six tracks already out, 28 still under wraps

Between Travis Scott bringing Daft Punk’s Guy-Man, Keith Richards showing up, and now Cardi B plus Fuerza Regida, this album is refusing to be normal. And we’re still more than a month from launch.

Cope Level for anyone who thought the soundtrack reveals were slowing down: ZERO.
