The young prodigy from FC Barcelona recently revealed his love for Afrobeats music.
In an interview with TTV, the Spanish international shared that he listens to "a lot of African music," specifying that he is particularly a fan of two icons of the genre: Burna Boy and Rema.
When asked by the host about his musical preferences, Yamal responded without hesitation: "Burna [Boy] and Rema," thus highlighting his attachment to this booming musical movement on the global stage.
This revelation surprised some fans, especially since Lamine Yamal had recently been closely associated with Skales, another Nigerian artist, whose song "Shake Body," released in 2015, has recently regained popularity thanks to a viral dance by the young Barcelona star.
In tribute to this unexpected link between football and music, Skales recently released a new track titled "Dance Like Lamine Yamal." A musical nod that reflects Yamal's growing influence, far beyond the football field, reports Afrikmag.
