I swear sports and music are so synonymous, cause we want to be them, and they want to be us..
Drake said it best on his, “Thank Me Now” track. Athletes and rappers have pure admiration and respect for each other. From NBA stars LeBron James and Dwayne Wade, to hip-hop leaders Rick Ross and The Game, we have seen countless examples of rappers showing much love to athletes and vice versa. The respect goes a little too far when rappers take to the playing field, but it gets ugly once athletes decide to take their talents to a studio near them. We’re looking at you, NBA players.
Rappers know their limits and are barred from competing on big stages unless they participate in charity or Celebrity All-Star games. If a professional basketball player wants to hop in a booth to drop some bars with hopes of making a hit, they know who to contact and there is no stopping them from releasing it to the masses.
Here are the 7 worst cases of NBA players attempting to be rappers.
