Rio Ferdinand, a former footballer for Manchester United, was delighted with Darren “IShowSpeed‘s” most recent song, World Cup. Over 11 million people have viewed the song since it was posted to his official channel on YouTube last week, which is less than a week after its debut.

Right now, Darren is in Manchester. He was present at Old Trafford for Manchester United’s 4-2 victory against Aston Villa in their EFL Cup match. Darren had the chance to meet Ferdinand while he was in town.

One of the most recognizable faces in the football world is IShowSpeed, who rose through the ranks swiftly. He frequently disparaged Lionel Messi in his most recent song because he is a fervent Cristiano Ronaldo follower.

Despite how absurd the lyrics may be, Rio Ferdinand was impressed by them. Some of the song’s prominent lines criticizing Messi were as follows: “Messi, he finna what? … Messi, you what to what? … Messi, you ’bout to huh, huh?”

Rio continued to be curious and enquired as to why the diss was made. ” You not feeling Messi?” Rio asked. In a flash, IShowSpeed answered, “No, hell naw! Never.”

Rio Ferdinand joked that he would contact FIFA to get the song made official as he ended the call. It should be noted that after their Facetime conversation, IShowSpeed’s tweet advertising his music received a response from FIFA’s official Twitter account, which read:
