Sonic the Hedgehog movie - Speed Me Up - Theme Song | General News | NintendoReporters

 [![Sonic the Hedgehog movie – Speed Me Up – Theme Song](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/sonic-the-hedgehog-movie-speed-me-up-theme-song.jpg "Sonic the Hedgehog movie – Speed Me Up – Theme Song")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/sonic-the-hedgehog-movie-speed-me-up-theme-song.jpg)The official theme song for the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog Movie is out and it is probably not what you where expecting.

Gone are series stalwarts Crush40 and in come a rappers like WizKhalifa, TyDollaSign. Yeah what can I say … except I would have let Crush40 at least be involved.

The theme song is titled Speed me Up which makes sense, but have a listen to the song below to make your own minds up. Really be your own judge;

I liked the Gangsta’s Paradise trailer a bit more … but well I am not the biggest fan of this theme. Maybe they should have even gone with good old Pumpkin Hill;
