Paramount Pictures has announced the release of Run It, the official song for Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Performed by country-rock rapper Jelly Roll, the track is available today across major music streaming platforms, with an official music video set for release soon.
A Fresh Sonic Soundtrack
Run It continues the Sonic the Hedgehog movie franchise’s tradition of delivering energetic and mainstream hits. Fans may recognize its rap-dance fusion as reminiscent of earlier tracks like Wiz Khalifa’s Speed Me Up (Sonic 1) and Kid Cudi’s Stars in the Sky (Sonic 2). The upbeat melody and danceable rhythm are expected to perfectly complement the fast-paced energy of the upcoming movie.
Behind the Music
The song showcases Jelly Roll’s versatility, blending country, pop, hip-hop, and electronic sounds. Paramount’s press release highlights its lively, optimistic vibe:
“Anchored by breezy acoustic guitar and handclaps, the song climaxes with a bright, dancefloor-ready bridge and sunny refrain: ‘We gonna run it, run it, run it till we’re running out of road!’ It’s an upbeat and undeniable anthem that’s as energetic as Sonic himself.”
Co-written by Jelly Roll alongside acclaimed collaborators such as Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic), David Guetta, and Sean Cook, Run It features a production team of equal talent, ensuring it resonates with fans of all genres.
Availability
Fans can stream Run It on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Its infectious energy is expected to make it a highlight of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, possibly accompanying the end credits—though this is unconfirmed.
