EA FC 25 Soundtrack Takes a Global Tune with Rema and Shallipopi’s “Benin Boys – Newsad

In a thrilling announcement that’s sure to get gamers and music lovers buzzing, EA Sports has confirmed that the catchy Afro-fusion track “Benin Boys,” performed by Nigerian sensations Rema and Shallipopi, will feature in the official soundtrack of the much-anticipated video game, EA FC 25. Yes, that’s right! Your favorite football game, previously known as FIFA, is dropping the latest rendition of its pixelated pitch on September 27, and it’s packing some serious tunes!

Now, dear readers, if you were wondering why we’re celebrating a video game soundtrack like it’s the last day of school, let’s break it down a bit – because this isn’t just any soundtrack. The inclusion of “Benin Boys” signifies the swelling wave of Nigerian music that’s not just staying local but is bobbing up and down globally, catching the ears of listeners everywhere faster than a Ronaldo free-kick!

Let’s face it: if you were thinking that football and music are two worlds apart, think again! These genres are getting tighter than a goalkeeper’s gloves, especially with EA’s full playlist featuring a colorful mosaic of tunes from international artists. From pop to hip-hop, and now to Afrobeats, it’s a rhythm buffet that just might compel you to dance off the last two slices of pizza while trying not to mess up your game score. Have you ever tried dribbling and dancing at the same time? It’s practically an Olympic sport at this point.

For those who are not in the know, “Benin Boys” is more than just a song; it’s a cultural anthem that taps into Rema and Shallipopi’s roots in Benin City, Nigeria. The track has a beat so infectious that it’s been making waves on social media and playlists alike since day one. Just ask any college student pulling an all-nighter to finish that paper; there’s a good chance they’ve had it on repeat to keep the vibes in the room high. If only studying could be as fun as avoiding those tackles in EA FC!

Now, let’s talk about the power of music and how it can elevate your gaming experience. Picture this: you’re at home, controller in hand, adrenaline pumping as you set up your next strategic play. The pressure is boiling, the stakes are high, and then suddenly… the banger drops! “Benin Boys” starts playing, and before you know it, you’re not just playing football; you’re doing your best impression of a dance-off while trying to score that last-minute goal! Just watch out for your little brother; if your moves are too good, he might challenge you to a dance-off instead!

Additionally, the vibrancy of the EA FC 25 soundtrack complements the game beautifully. The developers at EA Sports have worked hard to curate a selection that reflects the diverse audience of gamers who also jive to the beat of cultural fusion. Who doesn’t want to feel good while playing? After all, life is just more bearable with a fantastic soundtrack playing in the background – even if it’s only to distract you from facing the fact that you’ve lost yet another match to a ten-year-old that swears they’re ‘just better’ than you.

Rema’s rise to fame has been nothing short of meteoric, and Shallipopi isn’t far behind, already establishing himself as a defining voice within the African music scene. The duo finding a place in EA FC 25’s storied history is a testament to their talent and the growing appreciation for Afrobeats worldwide. With “Benin Boys,” they’ve captured not just the essence of their hometown but also the hearts of fans around the globe.
