An international player for the Dutch national team, footballer Noa Lang has taken up music in between matches. Born in Capelle aan den IJssel on June 17, 1999 to a Surinamese mother, he was raised by his stepfather, Ajax Amsterdam and Moroccan national team player Nourdin Boukhari, who coached him and turned him into a Dutch soccer hopeful. Having moved from Feyenoord Rotterdam to FC Nantes in France, then to Kasımpaşa Istanbul in Turkey, Noa Lang began his professional career in 2018 with Ajax Amsterdam, before transferring successively to FC Twente, Club Brugge (2020-2023) and PSV Eindhoven, who won the 2023-2024 championship. A member of the Dutch U16 youth team, the attacking midfielder began playing for the national team in 2021, and took part in the 2022 World Cup. The following year, under the name Noano, he embarked on a career as a rapper with the track "7K op je feestje", accompanied by Antybanty, which reached No. 7 on the Billboard Netherlands Singles chart. Building on this encouraging start, Noano continued in 2024 with Ronnie Flex for the hit "Damage", which this time reached No. 1.
