Former U.S. President Donald Trump has recently shown a surprising affection for Afrobeats, capturing the attention of music enthusiasts. In a viral video, Trump, who served as the 45th President of the United States, is seen enthusiastically enjoying Wizkid’s international hit “Essence,” featuring Tems. This development comes shortly after Trump, who is campaigning for a second term in the 2024 presidential race, was injured in a shooting incident at a rally in Pennsylvania in July.
The footage shows internet personality and streamer Adin Ross riding with Trump, during which Ross plays Wizkid’s “Essence.” Trump’s energetic response, including head-bobbing and visible enjoyment, highlights his appreciation for the track from Wizkid’s acclaimed Made in Lagos album.
