While Persona 5's Soundtrack has become a massively overplayed collection of songs in the years since its release, it shouldn't take away from what Shoji Meguro was able to accomplish here musically. Elements of jazz, R&B, lofi, rock, and more all shine throughout the game's OST, making an incredible listening experience for those playing the game themselves, and those listening to the music itself as a separate experience. While narrative context helps these songs shine even further beyond what they would as a listening experience on their own, there's no doubt that even those not interested in Persona 5 as a video game will find much to enjoy within this game's compositional work.
