However, a guest appearance by Ultimate Fighting Champion (UFC) star Kamaru Usman is one of the surprises from the video.

In the video, Usman, who is the reigning UFC welterweight champion, is seen holding his belt while Burna Boy and Wizkid perform. The UFC star was vibing to the song in several scenes in the video.

Usman, who is the first UFC Champion from Nigeria, is known to support Burna Boy and his music.

On several occasions, Usman has used Burna Boy's songs to walk out into the octagon before a fight.

The last time was in his victory against Colby Covington at Madison Square Garden in November last year.
