Kanye West may be soundtracking the NBA’s playoffs campaign, but the NFL has Canadian hip-hopper K’naan in its corner.

“Dreamer,” a track from K’naan’s recently-released ”Troubadour,” is being used in a 2009 NFL draft commercial, which also features an appearance by the performer himself.

Also featured in the ad – a number of the NFL’s top prospects for the draft that goes down April 25 and 26, including University of Georgia’s Matt Stafford and Texas Tech’s Michael Crabtree.

K’naan is currently on tour in the U.S. and plays the Coachella festival today (Sunday) in Indio, Calif. Following that gig, he joins up with Snoop Dogg for a run of dates beginning May 4 in Little Rock, AK and wrapping up May 17 in Hilton Head, SC.
