The Premier League is abuzz with the emergence of a rap artist going by the name of Dide. Premier League fans have seen the masked performer capture minds with their popular tune “Thrill.” But the big question is, “Who is Dide?” Fans and bettors have their betting entertainment predictions to uncover the masked entertainer’s true identity.
Dide Premier League Phenomenon
Seemingly out of the blue, an unknown artist going by the name of Dide took the music world by storm with their rap-inspired theme known as “Thrill.” However, this artist’s masked persona has fueled speculation regarding their true identity. This speculation has led observers to believe Dide is actually a Premier League star.
The Dide Premier League phenomenon has caught on so much that those who bet on entertainment have produced odds and betting lines to determine Dide’s true identity. While there is no assurance that the Dide Premier League phenomenon truly refers to an athlete, the speculation is that fans are dealing with a Premier League player.
Dide’s True Identity
Here are the betting odds for the mysterious rapper’s true identity:
Eddie Nketiah (-300)
Betting entertainment predictions make the Arsenal star the likeliest candidate for Dide’s true persona. Two specific reasons stand out as the reasoning for this belief. First, “Dide” appears to be an anagram of the name “Eddie.” Second, Nketiah is 23 years old. The song “Thrill” has references to being 23 years old.
Also, the music video depicts areas of London that seem to coincide with Nketiah’s London upbringing. Lastly, observers believe that Nktekiah is the likeliest candidate by comparing his voice in interviews to the voice heard on the song’s recording.
Alex Iwobi (+400)
Everton star Alex Iwobi is also believed to be the person behind the mask. Like Nketiah, Iwobi also grew up in London though he was originally born in Lagos, Nigeria. However, most observers don’t believe Iwobi is as strong a bet as Nketiah.
Bukayo Saka (+700)
Another Arsenal star, Bukayo Saka, is believed to be behind the mask. Saka has emerged as one of England’s best players, especially after his showing in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
It may seem unlikely that such a rising star would be interested in a music career. Perhaps the biggest question mark is that Saka is not 23. But perhaps that reference is meant to throw listeners off the trail.
Ashley Young (+1,200)
Ashley Young has been a staple in Aston Villa. At 37, he seems ready to transition from his playing days into a new career field. Perhaps music is something that Young is interested in pursuing.
While he is certainly too old to fit the “23” reference, an individual such as Young could be referring to his younger days. He’s a long shot, albeit an interesting one.
Jacob Ramsey (+1,400)
The Dide Premier League phenomenon could also come from another Aston Villa big shot. Ramsey lacks a strong connection to South London. Additionally, listeners do not believe his voice matches the one in the song. Nevertheless, Ramsey could be an interesting long-shot pick to bet on entertainment props.
Some observers have speculated that Ramsey is looking to gain popularity off the pitch. While that idea seems unlikely, it’s still a possibility.
Ivan Toney (+2,500)
Another long-shot pick is Brentford forward, Ivan Toney. Toney is 27 and hails from England, though he was born in Northampton.
Still, some observers speculate that Dide is a relatively unknown Premier League player possibly looking to capture attention beyond the sports world. At +2,500, Toney is definitely a dark horse but could provide an interesting bit for bettors focused on long-shot picks.
