A number of big musical artists are set to contribute to the soundtrack of the upcoming animated film, Minions: Rise of Gru.

Several posters heavily influenced by ’70s design have been spotted across London, each bearing the names of Tame Impala, Diana Ross, RZA, BROCKHAMPTON, Phoebe Bridgers, St. Vincent, Thundercat, Caroline Polacheck,  Brittany Howard, Bleachers, Tierra Whack, Weyes Blood, Kali Uchis, H.E.R. and producer Jack Antonoff and a note that simply states “Coming Soon.” A source confirmed to Variety that the posters are, in fact, in support of Rise of Gru, which will serve as a prequel to Despicable Me that is set in the ’70s.
