Controversial video game developer Rockstar has announced the availability of "The Music of Grand Theft Auto IV" soundtrack compilation and "The Evil Genius DJ Green Lantern:
Liberty City Invasion: Music From and Inspired by Grand Theft Auto IV" via the European iTunes Store. The latter contains eight new tracks made exclusively for DJ Green Lantern's radio show ("Liberty City Invasion") on the in-game radio station ("The Beat"). The other eight new songs are directly inspired by Rockstar's sandbox title.

iTunes Europe now lists the following tracks as included inside what is called "Special Edition The Music of Grand Theft Auto IV": Michael Hunter - Soviet Connection (theme from GTA IV); Mobb Deep Featuring Havoc & Prodigy from H.N.I.C. Part 2 Sessions - Dirty New Yorker; Busta Rhymes - Where's My Money; Bob Marley & The Wailers and Damian Marley - Stand Up Jamrock; Seryoga - Liberty City: The Invasion; Greenskeepers Vagabond.

As for the "Liberty City Invasion: Music From and Inspired by Grand Theft Auto IV" compilation, it includes the following tracks (full list):

1. Intro
2. Styles P - What's the Problem
3. Busta Rhymes - Where's My Money
4. Wyclef, Uncle Murda and Mavado - Informer
5. Joell Ortiz and Dante Hawkins - Alone
6. Jim Jones and Juelz Santana - Bustin Shots
7. Maino - Get Away Driver
8. Uncle Murda - Anybody Can Get It
9. Fabolous and Fat Joe - I'm So Fly
10. Qadir - Nickname
11. 38 Special, Fever and Dwayne - Streets Raised Me
12. Clipse feat. Re-Up Gang - 9mm
13. Heltah Skeltah feat. Buckshot - Cant Trust Em
14. Red Caf - Stickm
15. Immortal Technique - Parole
16. Tru Life - Wet Em Up
17. Johnny Polygon - Price On Your Head

Prior to their availability on iTunes Store, Europe, GTA IV soundtracks were only available with the purchase of a copy of Special Edition The Music of Grand Theft Auto IV.

GTA IV is one of the most controversial video game titles of all time, having brought Rockstar both fame and grief (more fame than grief, of course). The developers behind this successful franchise, available across the most popular platforms today (PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360), are also known for another controversial video game, called Manhunt. While that one too is popular, it's not half as acclaimed as the GTA series. So no iTunes Manhunt soundtracks for you! Not that it even had any (unless sticking a syringe in a man's neck sounds "like music to your ears").

The Music of Grand Theft Auto IV compilation is priced at 7.99 British Pounds. The same price tag is applied to Liberty City Invasion: Music From and Inspired by Grand Theft Auto IV. You can also grab one song at a time for 0.79.
