Earlier tonight, a new TV spot for Creed debuted during The Voice, featuring the song “Last Breath,” from Future and produced by Metro Boomin and Creed composer Ludwig Goransson.

Right around that same time, the Creed social media pages shared the song, available to stream on Soundcloud.
The song incorporates Bill Conti’s iconic Rocky score, threaded behind the melody throughout the track. It’s fairly indicative of the way Goransson handles the use of recognizable elements of the Rocky music throughout Creed.
You can check it out below.

Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, who died before he was born. Still, there’s no denying that boxing is in his blood, so Adonis heads to Philadelphia, the site of Apollo Creed’s legendary match with a tough upstart named Rocky Balboa. Once in the City of Brotherly Love, Adonis tracks Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) down and asks him to be his trainer. Despite his insistence that he is out of the fight game for good, Rocky sees in Adonis the strength and determination he had known in Apollo—the fierce rival who became his closest friend. Agreeing to take him on, Rocky trains the young fighter, even as the former champ is battling an opponent more deadly than any he faced in the ring. With Rocky in his corner, it isn’t long before Adonis gets his own shot at the title…but can he develop not only the drive but also the heart of a true fighter, in time to get into the ring?
Creed is in theaters on November 25.
