The MJ Show #86 (Akon - Oh Africa - Fifa 2010 Song)
Just a little while ago a regular of The MJ Show, and a winner of one our contests here (@bonda0123) just tweeted a song and I loved it so much that I knew I had to make an entire show around it.
I've always like ads with footballers in it...and these ads are stunning and so is the song that Akon has made.
Have a look -
Messi Ad
Penalty Shoot Out
Kaka Vs Drogba
Those were the smaller ads. Here's how the entire song was used in an ad. This is what I first saw. All the others were just things I found while looking out for more on the song.
This here though, is something special. LOVED it and I hope you do too.
