Re-fetched and confirmed in full by this desk's editor at 2026-09-21T03:27:50Z, HTTP 200 at 44,943 bytes. The collection record gives trackCount 34, a releaseDate of 2026-11-19T08:00:00Z, primaryGenreName Soundtrack and a copyright line naming Atlantic Recording Corporation and Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., which independently confirms an attribution batch 49 could only reach through a YouTube channel, a storefront footer and a barcode range. Six slots carry real titles, artists, durations and isStreamable true; the other 28 come back named Track N with artist unknown, a null duration and isStreamable false. The same 34 slot structure with the same six positions was found in the GB, DE, JP, AU and BR storefronts. The limits are printed as limits: this is Apple's catalogue metadata and not a Rockstar announcement, a placeholder grid is a distributor scaffold, slot numbers can move before release and Rockstar has published no running order anywhere. Apple also writes PinkPantheress as one word where Rockstar's own page writes it as two, a live discrepancy that still holds on both surfaces.

Rockstar has published six songs and a number. The number is 34. It has published no track listing, no running order and no track numbers of any kind. Apple's catalogue has all 34 slots, in order, and it puts the Keith Richards song at track 32. That is the fourth slot from the end of the record. Rockstar's own music page lists Keith Richards sixth of six. What does Apple's catalogue say about Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album? CONFIRMED, re-fetched in full by this desk's editor after a researcher brought it in. The lookup at https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=6812476961&entity=song&limit=50&country=US answered HTTP 200 at 44,943 bytes at 2026-09-21T03:27:50Z.

The sound recording symbol is rendered by Apple as a circled P and is transcribed here as (P). CONFIRMED. Thirty four track slots came back. Six of them carry real titles, real artist credits, real durations and isStreamable true. The other twenty eight are placeholders: named Track 1, Track 3, Track 6 and so on, artist "unknown", trackTimeMillis null, isStreamable false. Which GTA 6 album tracks have numbers, and what are they? CONFIRMED, the editor's own transcription of the six named slots. TrackTitleArtist, as Apple prints itLength (ms) 2That's It (feat.

Five of the six sit inside the first eleven slots. The sixth sits at 32 of 34. Apple also carries a per track explicitness flag on each of the six, and it does not match the flag on the collection. CONFIRMED: That's It, RHYNO and Macacoa 2000 come back explicit; Sexy Magic, Last Thing You Need and Bright Lights, Big City come back notExplicit. The collection as a whole is flagged explicit, which on Apple's catalogue simply means at least one track on it is. Half the released singles are not. Where do the twenty eight unnamed slots sit? CONFIRMED, and the gaps are the interesting part. The placeholders returned are Track 1, Track 3, Track 6, Track 7, Track 9, Track 10, Track 12 through Track 31 inclusive, Track 33 and Track 34. Every one of them carries artist "unknown", a null trackTimeMillis and isStreamable false. Read the shape rather than the individual numbers. The singles are front loaded: six of the first eleven slots are already accounted for, then twenty one consecutive unnamed slots run from 12 to 31 without a break, then Keith Richards at 32, then two more unknowns to close the record. This desk's own arithmetic: the six released singles account for roughly 18 per cent of the slots on the album and a combined 18 minutes 38 seconds of running time, summed from the six durations in the table above. There is a straightforward reason not to build a theory on any of that. A placeholder row is a delivery artefact. It tells you that a distributor has reserved thirty four positions with a store, and it tells you which six have been cleared for release so far. It does not tell you that the running order is settled, and it certainly does not tell you what is in slots 12 to 31. Does the same order show up outside America? CONFIRMED across six national storefronts. A researcher ran the identical lookup against the GB, DE, JP, AU and BR country codes between 03:04:06Z and 03:04:08Z on 21 September. Every one returned HTTP 200, trackCount 34, a release date of 2026-11-19T08:00:00Z and streamable tracks at exactly positions 2, 4, 5, 8, 11 and 32. The response sizes differ slightly by territory, at 44,943 bytes for the United States, Britain and Australia, 45,427 for Germany, 45,626 for Japan and 45,214 for Brazil, which is what localised store URLs and territory specific fields do to a payload. The structure underneath is identical in all six. That consistency is worth something. A single storefront returning an odd running order would be a candidate for a regional data error. Six territories agreeing to the slot number is a distributor delivery, made once and replicated. Why does track 32 matter? Because this desk warned about precisely this three days ago, and the warning turns out to have been necessary. On 18 September we published our piece on the album announcement. It printed the six singles in the order Rockstar lists them on its own music page and attached an explicit warning, in bold, that page order is not album sequencing and the page gives no track numbers at all. Anyone presenting that table as a running order, we said, was inventing something Rockstar had not published. Here is the comparison.

The warning was correct. We are saying that once and moving on, because being right about a caveat is the minimum of the job rather than an achievement. Who is releasing the GTA 6 album? CONFIRMED, and this is an independent confirmation of something this desk could previously only infer. Batch 49 attributed the album to Atlantic Records through three indirect artefacts: the six official single uploads sitting on the Atlantic Records YouTube channel, a Warner-Elektra-Atlantic line in the storefront footer, and a barcode on the Warner 075678 prefix. Rockstar's own music page contains the string Atlantic zero times. Apple's copyright line now states it directly: (P) 2026 Atlantic Recording Corporation and Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. That is a fourth surface, independent of the other three, and it names Take-Two alongside the label. Is it PinkPantheress or Pink Pantheress? CONFIRMED as a live discrepancy, and it still holds. Apple writes PinkPantheress as one word. Rockstar's own music page writes Pink Pantheress as two. Batch 49 flagged that three days ago and both surfaces are unchanged. It is a small thing and it is the sort of small thing that propagates into a hundred write-ups without anyone checking which spelling came from where. If you are quoting the artist credit, say which surface you took it from. What this does not establish This is Apple's catalogue metadata, not a Rockstar announcement. Rockstar has published no running order anywhere, on any surface this desk has reached. A placeholder grid is a distributor scaffold. Twenty eight slots named Track N with a null artist and a null duration are a record of how a pre-order was delivered to a store, not a statement about the artwork. Slot numbers can move before release. There are fifty nine days until 19 November, by this desk's own arithmetic from today's date, and a re-sequence before then would not be unusual. Not established: any of the twenty eight unreleased titles or artists. Apple carries none, this desk has named none, and any list claiming otherwise is not coming from this endpoint. Not established: that any of these tracks appears in the game. Rockstar's own wording is official soundtrack album, and its Newswire copy treats in-game radio as a separate announcement still to come. Not established: the durations as final. 180000 and 196000 milliseconds are both suspiciously round, which is normal for pre-release delivery metadata and is worth nobody's time as a mystery. The album's commerce side, including the regional availability split on the official store, is covered at our vinyl piece, the wider soundtrack record is at the explainer, and the one previous occasion on which a Grand Theft Auto song's numbers were traced properly is here. The 15 September artist posts that preceded all of this are here. More on the news desk, background on the GTA 6 wiki, and the servers list and leaderboards are open.
