The Birds Of Prey hype just reached new heights, after two of hip hop current queens hit up an event for the film at Hollywood & Highland on Thursday night. The entertainment center was transformed into "Harleywood," to celebrate the film's main character, Harley Quinn, played by Margot Robbie. Megan and Doja, who both have tracks on the official Birds of Prey soundtrack, joined Margot and the cast of fellow bad b*tches, including Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Charlotte Lawrence, and Ella Jay Basco.

While the film doesn't hit theatres until February 7th, some of the badass bangers off the soundtrack have already been released, including Doja's "Boss B*tch" and Megan's collab with Normani, "Diamonds." The rest of the impending soundtrack features songs from the likes of Saweetie, Summer Walker, Halsey, cast member Charlotte Lawrence, and more. Atlantic Records President, Kevin Weaver, described the lineup of ladies as "the ultimate badass girl gang," full of "cutting-edge young female artists."

After sharing some footage of herself working with Pharrell in the studio, it was confirmed that Suga will feature some Neptunes-produced tracks, as well as a collab with SZA produced by Juicy J.

Featuring a loaded lineup of songs inspired by batshit baddie Harley Quinn.
With just a few weeks left until the premiere of DC Films’ Suicide Squad spinoff Birds Of Prey, Atlantic Records has now decided to give a preview into some of the girl power hits that will be featured on the movie’s soundtrack.
After already being treated to the soundtrack’s lead single “Diamonds” by Megan Thee Stallion and Normani, we’re now expected to also get hits from Doja Cat, a collaboration between Saweetie and electropop singer GALXARA, a rock-tinged cut from Halsey and Summer Walker amongst other female musicians. In a statement given to Complex, President of Atlantic Records’ West Coast operations Kevin Weaver describes the curated compliation as “a list of artists that [Atlantic] wanted to target based on the key music needs of the film, with the overall goal of creating an aesthetic that felt like Harley Quinn and the Birds of Prey.” Describing the album’s collective as “cutting-edge young female artists” and “the ultimate bad ass girl gang,” Weaver and the Atlantic crew definitely got it right with this head-thumping lineup of ladies.
