Last week, Spotify and FC Barcelona brought the worlds of music and football together once again to kick off the club's preseason tour in the U.S. To celebrate the tour-which saw the team travel to Orlando and New York for matches, practice sessions, listening parties, and studio visits-we collaborated with global superstar Rema and reggaeton hitmaker Blessd, two massive artists who are loved by fans and Bar a players alike.
Rema soundtracks the FC Barcelona preseason tour Rema became the first artist to take over the Bar a on Tour playlist on Spotify, soundtracking Bar a's preseason tour with some of his favorite hits from his new album HEIS, as well as tracks from Tems, Burna Boy, Camilla Cabello, and Gunna.
Rema's meteoric success is a testament to his unique sound and artistic excellence. Not only did the Nigerian artist have Spotify's most-streamed Afrobeats album of 2023, but his collaboration with Selena Gomez on Calm Down was the most-streamed Afrobeats track of 2023 and the first single led by an African artist to join Spotify's Billions Club.
Blessd welcomes Bar a in Orlando When FC Barcelona touched down in Orlando, Blessd joined up with the squad on the training field and competed with the Bar a players in a unique challenge featuring his new song Mirame.

The group dueled it out to see who could be the quickest to get the first touch on the ball, and afterward, FC Barcelona stars Alejandro Balde, Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Ronald Ara jo presented Blessd with a personalized jersey.
The following day, the team arrived at Camping World Stadium for its first friendly match of the tour with the support of Blessd, who cheered the team on while showing off his new shirt.
