The connection between hip-hop and hoops goes way back to the inception of the music style. Rappers want to be hoopers, and hoopers want to be rappers. Therefore, the two industries are intertwined. Since personalities from both backgrounds share the same neighborhoods and grow up listening and watching the OGs form both, it is almost like a blood connection. That’s why when Shaquille O’Neal released his debut album, he went platinum as Diesel. It is not just Shaq, many have tried their hand at the craft. Their deep love for this art means that they have the utmost respect for those who define the game.
LeBron James also shares his roots with the iconic rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony. As their member Krayzie Bone fights for his life, the Forward can’t pray enough.
