Maybe they wound up paying through the nose for Vice City, because that game had lots of big name artists.

Scarface also had over 100 licensed tracks but I don't know of its development budget.

I don't think the music impacts the development budget. Usually royalties are paid out based on sales. So for each song, a certain amount must be paid per unit sale.
