What could be

Naomi Osaka’s favorite downtime activity? If we had to guess, it might just involve a good pair of headphones and some tunes. To be precise, it might be listening to the songs of her boyfriend, the star rapper Cordae. As the Japanese tennis star prepares to shine at the Paris Olympics with her first match against Germany’s Angelique Kerber on Saturday, the spotlight seems to be shifting towards her boyfriend Cordae, especially with his latest song dropping.

Cordae released his latest single ‘Saturday Mornings,’ on July 25. Since then, the song has been amassing huge likes and views and listens on various social media platforms. The song also features Lil Wayne as the two can be seen in a lyrical exchange in the video that extends over four minutes. And Cordae could be more proud of his new release!

Taking to his Instagram story, the American rapper shared a picture of a huge billboard that advertises Saturday Mornings, with pictures of himself and Wayne. He captioned the image, “Big Billboard w my Brudda the 🐐” The collaboration builds on their previous work together in the 2021 track Sinister (Feat. Lil Wayne), and has sparked huge excitement among the fans. The track’s production by Boogz adds to the glamour of the music, who is equally proud of his production.

“Creating this track with Cordae and Lil Wayne was an incredible experience. Their chemistry in the studio is unmatched, and it shines through in the final product,” he said. And for Cordae’s star girlfriend Osaka, this is probably one of the proudest moments and a delightful beginning to her Olympic campaign.

Naomi shared a beautiful tribute for her boyfriend’s new album. “@cordae you’re a star and a light, quite literally brighten up every room you walk in (or maybe it’s your hair lol). Congratulations on your 2nd album, proud of you ❤️.” While the Japanese sensation has not been very vocal about her boyfriend, she has expressed her love for his songs on certain occasions.

In December last year, when Cordae released his track ‘Chronicles,’ Naomi Osaka heaped praise on him, sharing a glimpse of the song on her Instagram, “This song hits no matter the occasion.” The support the love birds have demonstrated for each other is indeed adorable. 

When Naomi Osaka revealed a special gesture from Cordae

Naomi Osaka and Cordae have been dating since 2019 and since then, they have captured headlines for sweet moments. One of the best moments for Osaka came ahead of her final match at the US Open in 2020.

Revealing the incident that took place, Naomi Osaka reportedly shared a cute moment in a now-deleted Instagram post. “He stopped everything he was doing because I FaceTimed him a couple days earlier and said I was feeling sad and lonely in the bubble,” Naomi wrote, per PEOPLE. “I later found out that he hopped on a plane shortly after that call and then quarantined himself for a couple days in a hotel to see me and support.” And this definitely helped the Japanese star who clinched her second US Open title that year.

As the ongoing Paris Olympics progresses, it would be interesting to see if the latest song can once again be a boost for Osaka’s campaign.
