Dayo had dreams of becoming a music superstar. That dream was alive until he was struck with a condition called spasmodic dysphonia at an early stage — a cruel twist that stopped him from singing, as every attempt brought pain. But that didn’t stop Dayo. As he grew older, he found another way to connect with music, becoming a prominent music producer known globally for creating quality music.

Still, he never felt truly satisfied. Deep inside, the desire to sing burned. So he took the risk — singing through the pain — even after his doctor warned him he might lose the ability to speak if he pushed too far. And yet, he pushed. Finally, after three months, he recorded the single he had dreamed of.

That was when his life ended.

A gruesome accident… and then, opening his eyes, he found himself in a completely new world — one where all the art, music, and movies he knew had never existed. Excitement filled him… until the familiar dread struck. He still had the same condition that once robbed his  ability to sing.

He was devastated.

Then—

DING!
SYSTEM INITIALIZING

There was hope to sing again.

The world had been talking about Paris 2024 for months, but no amount of clips, trailers or rehearsals could prepare anyone—especially Dayo—for what it felt like to stand inside the Stade de France as the Olympic Opening Ceremony began.


A soft hum rose from the crowd—thousands of voices from every continent blending into one vibration in the air.


Fireworks cracked through the Parisian sky, splashing gold, red and blue across the roof of the stadium. The floor lit up with swirling graphics of rivers, stars and silhouettes of athletes. Music thundered from every corner, live orchestras mixing with modern drums.
