Mohammed Kudus Names Stonebwoy As His Favourite Artist

Stonebwoy and Mohammed Kudus 

In a recent Q&A session with West Ham United's media, rising football star Mohammed Kudus let fans in on a personal secret: his favorite artiste is none other than Ghana's afrobeat and dancehall sensation, Stonebwoy.

Kudus, the 23-year-old midfield dynamo who joined West Ham from Ajax Amsterdam in August, didn't hesitate to declare his admiration for Stonebwoy. When asked about his favorite artiste, he enthusiastically named the singer and even singled out Stonebwoy's track "Life is a journey," revealing that he could listen to it for the rest of his life.

Kudus' journey at West Ham began with a promising start, making his debut as a substitute during the team's 2-1 Premier League victory against Luton Town. He continued to make an impact, even scoring two goals in their Europa League opener against Backa Topola.

Interestingly, West Ham United has strategically incorporated Ghanaian music into Kudus' introduction to the club. His unveiling featured a track composed and performed by UK-based Ghanaian rapper Guvna B. Moreover, the Hammers' TikTok page has been buzzing with songs by Stonebwoy and King Promise, further cementing the connection between Kudus and his musical preferences. King Promise's global hit "Terminator" set the tone for Kudus' arrival, while Stonebwoy's "Into the future" served as the soundtrack to his initial photoshoot in a West Ham shirt.

This isn't the first time Stonebwoy and Kudus have crossed paths. Back in April, the musician paid a visit to Kudus when he was still with Ajax. During this visit, Stonebwoy gave Kudus an exclusive preview of some tracks from his 5th Dimension album before its official release.

As Kudus continues to make his mark on the football pitch for West Ham, his passion for Stonebwoy's music adds an intriguing layer to his public persona, blending sports and the rhythm of Ghana's music scene in a unique and harmonious way.
