People are already excited about Ken’s song. ![]() (L to R) Andrew Wyatt, Mark Ronson, and Ken himself-Ryan Gosling-at the glitzy Barbie premiere. “That’s some shit we couldn’t have dreamed or wished up,” he says. Cut to Minaj and Ice Spice's “Barbie World,” a remix of Aqua’s 1997 “Barbie Girl” anthem. Well, Ronson is a Grammy-winning producer-who’s worked with stars like Amy Winehouse, Lady Gaga, Adele, and Bruno Mars-so it wasn't a hard sell. Ronson wanted to include Nicki Minaj-she is the Barb, after all-he just wasn’t sure how to pull it off. “I was like, hell yeah.” There was only one issue. “She sent me some playlists for inspiration and asked if I wanted to make songs for the film,” Ronson, 47, tells me over Zoom. But the thing is, when Greta Gerwig asks for your help? You deliver. (That’s a lot of ears to impress.) In 2022, when Gerwig offered the gig to the legendary producer, he knew the music could easily make or break Barbie. In fact, the Greta Gerwig-directed feature is predicted to earn $110 million at the box office this weekend. How could he not? Everyone and their mother has plans to see the movie, which is out this Friday. Mark Ronson lost a lot of sleep while crafting the Barbie soundtrack.
