The Silver Arrows ace was also grateful to Aguilera for allowing him to showcase his talents. Talking about this, the seven-time world champion shared, “I had this incredibly beautiful and talented person reach out to me a while back asking for me to be on her album.”
“I was so blown away and I jumped at the opportunity. I had 2 hours to write the short verse and record. The goal was to have the music come out under a different name so that you could hear the music first and later know it was me,” further wrote the 37-year-old driver on his Instagram story.
