This performance celebrated the 10th anniversary of "Hamilton," which opened on Broadway in August 2015. The musical's blend of hip-hop, jazz, and Broadway styles has made a profound impact on theater and culture.

In 2025, "Hamilton" was selected for preservation in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress. As of July 2024, the album was the most-streamed Broadway musical on Spotify, with over 6.4 billion streams.

The 2025 Tony Awards performance highlighted the musical's continued relevance. The album averages approximately 145 million plays per song.
