"I've been convinced for a long time that music streaming platforms and Formula 1 racing share very similar audiences and that crossover between the two can genuinely be very engaging and fun for fans" This is just one reason Pierre Gasly is excited that Amazon Music and Nav have revealed a new On My Way 2 Rexdale custom helmet he will wear as the BWT Alpine F1 Team's driver at this week’s Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix! The helmet features artwork inspired by the platinum-selling rapper’s highly anticipated, upcoming album On My Way 2 Rexdale, which pays tribute to Nav’s Toronto neighborhood of Rexdale and is set for release this summer on XO and Republic Records. Ahead of the event, Pierre Gasly has curated the “Official BWT Alpine F1 Playlist” with his race music for the Canadian Grand Prix. The playlist is exclusively available on Amazon Music and features songs like Internet Money and Nav’s “Lemonade,” Jungle’s “MHD,” and 2Pac’s “Hail Mary.” Listen to the playlist here (https://amzn.to/3KxRRzy) Learn more here! https://amzn.to/3z31PWY
