I stumbled across this link today:

The Force Awakens features cantina music from Hamilton’s Lin-Manuel Miranda

It's a short piece, with the crux of the article being "It seems [John] Williams wasn’t keen on contributing another song for another cantina band. So, after meeting Miranda at a showing of Hamilton, Abrams took the Tony winner (for In The Heights) up on his offer to write the music for the scene."

Cantina Battle #1, hm?

ETA: Check out the hashtag #Force4Ham! There are some choice listings here on Buzzfeed.

Twitter's take on this has been hilarious.

My favorite LMM tweet about Force4Ham:

"You know it's going to be a day when TOMMY KAIL calls and says,
"Have you been on Twitter yet?"
HE'S NOT ON TWITTER.
Gmorning!
#force4ham"

And Lacamoire's mash-up of Satisfied with The Force Theme.
