Burna Boy, Mr Eazi Join Global Stars on 'F1: The Movie – The Album' Soundtrack
Nigerian superstars Burna Boy and Mr Eazi continue their global dominance as they join a star-studded lineup on the official soundtrack for the upcoming blockbuster film, F1: The Movie – The Album. The announcement was made on Wednesday, April 29, 2025, with excitement building up ahead of the film's release on June 27, 2025.
Also flying the Nigerian flag on the album are British-Nigerian talents Darkoo and Obongjayar, showcasing yet again how Afro-influenced sounds are taking center stage in global pop culture.
The first single, ‘Lose My Mind’ by Don Toliver featuring Doja Cat, gives fans a taste of the sonic experience the album promises — one that mirrors the intensity, emotion, and adrenaline of Formula 1, even if the songs themselves don’t appear directly in the film.
💬 Opinion: A Cultural Overtake Worth Celebrating
The inclusion of multiple Nigerian artists in a high-profile international film project is no longer surprising — it's expected. But that doesn’t make it any less exciting. What we’re witnessing is a cultural overtake, where Afrobeat and Afro-fusion are no longer riding in the passenger seat; they’re steering the wheel.
From stadium tours to soundtrack credits, artists like Burna Boy and Mr Eazi are showing the world that African sound is not just trendy — it’s essential to the global music narrative. With Lewis Hamilton starring and the soundscape crafted to complement the high-speed drama of F1, this album promises to be as thrilling as a race-day finish line.
🎬 F1: The Movie, directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick), will speed into theatres on June 27, 2025, featuring a powerhouse cast led by Brad Pitt and Damson Idris.
🎧 Get ready to plug in your headphones and feel the rush — from Lagos to Monaco, the race is on.
