Usain Bolt Wants a Collaboration With Drake, Jay Z, and DJ Khaled
While many sportspersons choose to look back on a long and tiresome career on retirement, believing that their best days are behind them, Usain Bolt seems to be living a new life even day. The eight-time Olympic Gold Medallist has moved far past just a name as an athlete and explores the different kinds of opportunities out there freely.
After his early retirement in 2017 at just about 31 years of age, Bolt decided to pursue a career in professional soccer. Although it could have gone a lot better, he did enjoy his hand in that endeavor and had a memorable experience.

Retiring from soccer, he has now decided to move into the world of music. While many athletes are known to have side-career aside from their sport, Bolt believes that he now has the time to dedicate more to his venture.
In fact, he has higher hopes than you may think. Speaking on a live Olympics interview, the Jamaican revealed his dream to work with three of the world’s most popular artists.
“For me, DJ Khaled is what I aim to be. I mean, I follow him and I see his energy and the work he puts in,” Bolt said. “Drake. Anything he touches is gold and for me, I enjoy listening to Jay Z. So for me, those three people together would be something big.”
“It’s all about networking right now. I just started out but we meet a lot of people who do different things. So for me we’ll see what happens. I feel it’s gonna be big. It’s just a matter of time,” he said.
