'The Hamilton Mixtape' track list is here and it's glorious
Long before Hamilton was the biggest musical in the world, it started off as a mixtape concept. Now, finally, after years of promises, the Hamilton Mixtape is almost here.
This morning, while the world was still reeling from the Chicago Cubs' historic win (they're also the only city besides New York with a production of Hamilton), certified genius Lin-Manuel Miranda announced via Twitter that the mixtape will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow.
But thanks to globalization, we already know the track list.

Preorders are already available through Amazon UK, which lists the tracks on the mixtape, and they're unsurprisingly epic.
The Roots, who produced the show's Original Cast Recording, were already known to be part of this album. But it's artists like Sia, John Legend, Alicia Keys, and Kelly Clarkson whose covers of these beloved tracks are sure to break hearts and blow minds. Not to mention the disc also includes previously un-released songs "Valley Forge" and "Slavery Battle," both performed by Miranda.
According to Amazon UK, the Mixtape will be released on December 2nd. If you have a Hamilton fan in your life, looks like you've found the perfect Christmas gift.
