06 Wayne Rooney

Rapper-singer Jim Legxacy and director Lauzza take us back to 2005, when Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho graced the cover of 'FIFA 06' in the UK. DAVID was a 'Pro Evolution Soccer' man, to be honest, but even he could appreciate what 'FIFA' brought to the table. Legxacy loved it, however—so much so that he's released a track called '06 Wayne Rooney'.

To say Lauzza's taken the title and run with it would be an understatement. The result is an ode to sixth-generation console graphics, menus, user interfaces, et cetera, like a fan remake in time for its twentieth anniversary. On top of that, Nike's Total 90 range—synonymous with players like Rooney, Ronaldinho, and Luis Figo—is a character in its own right.

There's also room for nods to 'Match of the Day', football stickers, and Legxacy's own mixtape, 'Black British Music'. The sunny, carefree rush of the chorus ("How'd I get here? Hey ya/Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya") complements a true nostalgia hit.
