Besides his alluring prowess in and out of the field, Kevin-Prince Boateng has teased his fans in regards to his new creative endeavor-music. The ex-Ghanan international took the liberty of releasing a teaser of his latest project by the name "Grown on Concrete" on his social media accounts. His fans sit on the edge of their seats.-literally.
A Glimpse into "Grown on Concrete"
The teaser serves as a small, yet enthralling glimpse of Boateng's musical style-a fusion of contemplative lyrics with a thumping beat. The phrase, "Grown on Concrete," encapsulates Boateng's rise from humble beginnings to a globally respected football star. Born in Berlin and raised in some of the toughest neighborhoods, the footballer is a portrait of strength, effort, and refusal to be limited by circumstance-themes his music will probably boast of.
A Multi-Talented Star
The athlete is no stranger to the music scene. Having attracted attention for his hyped personality, he often voices his passion for music as an outlet for creativity and artistic expression. "King" was a track released in 2018, which further exemplified his ability to hit the two worlds of football and hip-hop culture; with "Grown on Concrete," Boateng seems to be poised to step things up, with promises of something more personal and sophisticated.
