“Balotelli (Supa)” is one of the songs on Kofi Mole’s EP “4 Da Poppin’”, which was released on September 4, 2026. Music recognition platform Shazam lists the record as an Afrobeat song, released under the No Gentlemen Allowed label.
The song was written by Edward Amoah, Kofi Mole’s real name, while production and mixing were handled by Pee Gh.

Who Is Kofi Mole?
Kofi Mole is a Ghanaian rapper and singer known for blending rap with Afrobeat and street-style melodies. He has stayed busy in 2026, appearing on several collaborations, including Essumann’s “On My Mind” alongside Quamina MP.
The Marseille video now gives his music an audience far beyond Ghana, among football fans who follow the French club.
Mario Balotelli’s Time at Marseille
Balotelli, a former Italy international, joined Marseille on January 23, 2019, after ending his contract with fellow Ligue 1 side OGC Nice. He signed a deal that ran until the end of that season.
Although his stay was short, he made a strong impression. He scored eight goals in 15 Ligue 1 matches, and he became the first Marseille player since Josip Skoblar in the late 1960s to score in each of his first five home league games for the club.
His goals and celebrations, including one in which he filmed himself on Instagram after scoring, made him a fan favourite at the Vélodrome. He left at the end of the season and later joined Italian side Brescia in August 2019.
The striker, now in the later stages of his career, has played for clubs including Inter Milan, Manchester City, AC Milan and Liverpool.
Ghanaian Music and European Football
Kofi Mole’s moment adds to a growing list of Ghanaian songs linked to big football brands. Recently, King Promise teamed up with Chelsea on the “Can’t Tame Us” anthem, with a video shot in Accra.
For Ghanaian artistes, such placements offer exposure to fans who may never have come across their music otherwise.
Whether Kofi Mole responds to the video or uses the moment to push the song further remains to be seen. For now, a Ghanaian record named after an Italian football star is playing over his goals in one of France’s most famous club colours.
