Fiona Campbell, controller of BBC Three, said of the recent documentary: “This film explores the idea of cultural and national identity through music and sport – all of which is at the heart of what’s important to our audience.

“Krept and Konan have been fundamental to the success of The Rap Game and we’re really excited for BBC Three viewers to get an exclusive preview into the making of the track as well as exclusive access to football talent at the top of their game.”

The new track comes after U2‘s Bono and The Edge recently collaborated with Martin Garrix for ‘We Are The People’, the official song of Euro 2020.

Written over the course of the past three years, the song includes lyrics written by Bono and guitar from The Edge.
