With the unwavering support and love of Cowboys Nation, the Dallas Cowboys are perennial Super Bowl hopefuls. The house DJ plays a significant role in making every home game at AT&T Stadium a memorable experience for the fans.

“I want to lead off with songs that I know will get people amped up, knowing that I'll need to save other ones for later in the game to ride that momentum,” says Erik Jorgensen, also known as DJ EJ, the Cowboys' music director. ”We'll add some more Latin flavor to the soundtrack this season, which I think will help bring an additional energy to the games, but just being able to capitalize on things the team does well to take that energy from a 9 to an 11 is what I look for.”

DJ EJ can pump up the audience's energy regardless of the team's performance. Win or lose, he wants to provide fans with an unforgettable experience. It's been a rollercoaster ride for him with the Cowboys.

“I always have the highest hopes for the team each and every season, but as we know, things can change in an instant," he says. "So I go into every season thinking we're going to build the perfect soundtrack for an NFC Championship game and adjust from that. There's a lot to be excited about with this year's team, but in my role, I can only plan for what I know and can control, so let's put a great energy out with the music, appeal to all Cowboys fans, and leave all fans with an awesome memory regardless of what happens on the field.”

As DFW hip-hop has grown with the team, the two have influenced on another. There's a rich history of Cowboys-inspired music by Dallas rappers.

Whether you're cheering on the Dem Boys with classics or team anthems, here's your ultimate playlist to get into the team spirit.

Preston Wayne & 13lackbeard, “Here We Gooo!” Featuring Dak Prescott

There is no better way to prepare for the road to the Super Bowl than with a motivational track led by the highest-paid player and team captain. Preston Wayne fires a few team-spirited verses for a victorious attitude alongside Cowboys resident DJ 13lackbeard on the production. When this song comes on in AT&T Stadium, fans will remember all the great Cowboys memories.

Big Tuck, "Welcome 2 Dallas"

The title alone says it all. The Queen City's Big Tuck 2006 anthem will have opponents quaking in fear as they experience the pure essence of what Cowboys football is all about. It's rowdy, rambunctious and hard-hitting, just like the defensive line. A triumphant introduction of The Boys as they explode out of the tunnel to the deafening roar inside Jerry's House.


Yella Beezy, “Hit” Featuring Lil Wayne
Yella Beezy has perfect timing returning to music with this hard-hitting new single assisted by the Best Rapper Alive, who is also a huge football fan. This song chants, "Hit a motherfucker," which perfectly reflects the defense's action on the field. This track is also a go-to after a big hit because of the Oak Cliff rap star's history with the Cowboys.

Post Malone, "Wow"

Grapevine native Post Malone's chart-topper is a high-flying groovy bass-bouncing hit, a perfect background track for the Cowboys' passing game. If you remember, upon the song's December 2018 release, Posty accompanied the song with an animated Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott cartoon. No one loves the Cowboys as much as Posty — have you been to his Cowboys-themed Raising Cane's?

BigXThaPlug, “Primetime”

With bars about swagger, gameplay and Southern charm, the Dallas rapper pays tribute to Coach Prime’s time with Dem Boys from 1995 to 1999. It's a football anthem for the new generation, sampling Primetime's 1994 hit "Must Be The Money." Expect Dak and the boys to run out of the tunnel to this one.


Deion Sanders, “Must Be The Money”

We can’t mention the remake by BigX and not remember the classic by arguably the best player ever. The '90s hit encapsulates everything that makes Primetime and his Hall of Fame career. The song was released while he was on his way to Dallas from San Francisco, where he won back-to-back Super Bowl rings.

Lil.Eaarl, “3 Point Stance” Featuring KBlast & Tay Money

This booty-bouncing track by the energetic youngsters will get fans pumped for the drive to the goal. This is always a fun one to twerk to, doogie or stanky leg when the team scores. Let’s see the Cowboys’ cheerleaders perform a routine to this one.

Dorrough Music, “Big Touchdown”


Dorrough’s partnership with the Cowboys spans decades. The “Get Big” hitmaker collaborated with the team on several anthems, including this one. As the song title suggests, the team that scored the most points in the league last season is known for compiling touchdowns with spectacular plays from Dak.

Fat Yunginn, “Mad Rich”

This a playmaker anthem. Fat Yunginn's new single matches the team’s lucrative lifestyle. The Cowboys have the highest-paid players in the league, and here’s a track that respects balling on and off the field.

Tay Money, “The Assignment”

Whether running routes, kicking field goals or getting Taylor Swift's attention, it's all about execution. For four-quarters of hard-nosed football, Big Tay's massive hit is always a good choice. The track and its visual are also football-inspired.

Zillionaire Doe, “Southside Still Da Realist”

A new era is upon us, and Zillionaire Doe is leading the charge. The song honors the past through innovative wordplay while preaching a new mindset. With this song, the team could connect with the new era of local music on the field.

Big Tuck, “Southside Da Realist”

This is another classic to remember while the new generation enjoys Zillionaire Doe's new version. Big Tuck and DSR's iconic hit will fill your heart with DFW pride, whether for a pick-me-up, a celebration after a tough drive or to get over a loss. Just hit play on this gem to show the opposing team not to mess with the Cowboys.

Rakim Al-Jabbaar, “Self Made”

This song by Dallas rapper Rakim Al-Jabbaar, from his new album La Farmacy Familia, conveys all the essentials needed to get into the focused state of mind of a playmaker, and its self-aware lyrics unlock an elevated level of gameplay.

GS Boys, “Stanky Legg”

Do you need a song to perform your touchdown dance? You can't go wrong with this quirky, one-legged classic cut. The move is simple and still one of the most popular in the end zone. You should represent your hometown heroes with this dance move whenever you have the opportunity — if you're an Aggie.

Dorrough Music, “It’s Our Time”

America's Team is always in the mix to win the Super Bowl this year. Dorrough’s Cowboys anthem captures the moment with his competitive lyricism draped over an inspiring theme. Now is the time to put yourself in a championship mindset.

Big Homie Sho, “Nah FR”

Big plays earn big money, right? Nah, for real. This song delivers aggressively and repeats from start to finish. Fans and players will be excited about Sundays when this song's impactful production. Super Bowl LIX will be held in New Orleans in February, and Sho's Louisiana roots add a deeper connection between the team and the song.

Dorrough Music, “Full Throttle”

Six3's adrenaline rush will help you push team spirit to the limit on and off the field. Despite the laid-back verses, this banger acknowledges Cowboys legends with Dallas swag. Ford Center, Cowboys apparel and America's Sweethearts all overtake the visual.

Charlie Boy, “I Look Good”

The song’s hook of “I look fly / I look good / Touch my swag, wish you could” matches every highlight play that will occur this season. You can never go wrong with this classic when you need a big play. We can only imagine this song was playing while Dak signed his massive contract.

Tay Money,“Tequila”

Here’s the song for a celebratory shot after a Cowboys touchdown. Big Tay’s intoxicating song is a fun introduction to her new moniker, Miss Casa Amigo. For a team that has passed down nicknames like “Mr. 88,” “Zeke-a-Virus” and “Man With The Bag,” it's only appropriate. Drink responsibly.
