Samara Cyn & DJ Premier Kick Down Doors with “Can I Kick It?” Cover for Major League Soccer

Samara Cyn and legendary producer DJ Premier have teamed up for a fresh take on A Tribe Called Quest’s timeless classic “Can I Kick It?“, and this isn’t just any cover. The Amazon Music Original was created exclusively for Major League Soccer’s “Thanks World, We’ll Take It From Here” campaign, the largest coordinated marketing push in the league’s history. Premier’s masterful production gets the modern, high-energy treatment, while Samara Cyn brings her signature lyricism and singular style to bridge generations of Hip-Hop.
The legendary producer even reached out to Q-Tip himself to pay proper respect before crafting this reimagining. With the track serving as the sonic backbone of MLS’s massive campaign, featuring everyone from Lionel Messi to David Beckham to Kevin Durant, this cover lands with serious weight. It’s a bold, stadium-ready anthem that honors the original while carving out its own lane for 2026.
