Amiko expressed her gratitude, "It's an honor to have the lead vocals and a co-write on Reckless with Carlos Battey (Jackie’s Boy), and I am thrilled to have a global audience for my original music because of this collaboration!"

She knows her commitment, as a former player and current coach, set the table and inspired her to pursue her goal of performing her original music live at the FIFA World Cup in 2026-27 at Dallas Cowboys, AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, aiming high to combine two of her favorite things—music and soccer---and dedicate her achievements to all those who have lived a life of ignited passion for the love of the beautiful game.
