Marseille and Monaco both used Kofi Mole's Balotelli song in their videos this week
Marseille set a Mario Balotelli reel to the Ghanaian rapper's song, Monaco used it for Mohammed Salisu, and Kofi Mole could not hide his delight.
On Friday, both Olympique de Marseille and Monaco featured Kofi Mole's song in their Instagram videos, much to the rapper's delight. The Ghanaian artist promptly celebrated the posts, crediting himself as the source of the audio used. The club logos, alongside the Italian and Ghanaian flags, were displayed in Marseille's reel, which did not clarify the reason behind the choice. Born in Palermo to Ghanaian parents, Balotelli, a former Italy striker, had a stint at Marseille in 2019.
Reacting to the situation, Kofi Mole took to his verified X account, exclaiming, "BRO! BOTH MONACO AND MARSEILLE POSTING MY SONG ON THEIR INSTAGRAM PAGES RN!!! 😭❤️🔥🔥🔥". Monaco's reel, posted on the same day, attributed the song to a different player, accompanied by a Ghana flag and a music-note tag of @kofi_mole.
A day prior, Ligue 1's McDonald's McDonald's club posted its own Mario Balotelli video, dated November 12, once again crediting @kofi_mole for the audio. A day earlier, Kofi Mole's official audio on his channel was titled Balotelli (Supa). In September, 3News reported that Kofi Mole had announced his return to music after a hiatus. Salisu, a centre-back at Monaco, was sidelined from the World Cup in February due to an ACL tear, according to 3News.
