Lin-Manuel Miranda Teams with Ben Platt for the Next #Hamildrop!

What's the next #Hamildrop? Lin-Manuel Miranda just announced via Twitter that the March installment will feature fellow Tony winner Ben Platt!

"The Hamilton Polka", featuring Weird Al Yankovic, was the latest installment in the HAMILDROP series. Lin-Manuel Miranda took to Twitter in December 2017 to announce that he will be dropping new Hamilton music every month until December 2018. Miranda explained that this is in place of a volume two of The Hamilton Mixtape, which was released last year and features a collection of remixes, covers, and tracks inspired by the multi-Tony Award winning Broadway musical.

HAMILTON is the story of America's Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant from the West Indies who became George Washington's right-hand man during the Revolutionary War and was the new nation's first Treasury Secretary. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, blues, rap, R&B, and Broadway, Hamilton is the story of America then, as told by America now.
