Basketball has a big impact on the music industry. One can often hear the names of top NBA players being mentioned in rap songs. Many a time, top rappers and pop stars are spotted on front row seats at NBA games.
One of the rappers in particular, who has been associated with the league and its players for a long time is Drake. Being from Canada, he has established his love for the Toronto Raptors and was visible at the NBA Finals Games back in 2019. Recently, the 34-year-old icon dropped his extended playlist ‘Scary Hours 2’. One of the tracks included in the EP was ‘Lemon Pepper Freestyle’.
Initially, Kyle Kuzma compared the duo to the likes of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. LeBron James didn’t agree with the comparison and gave his take. King James probably had one of the most accurate comparisons for the rapping duo. The Lakers megastar compared Drake and Rick Ross to Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant. LeBron tweeted replying to Kuzma:
“Nah bro they more like Steph and KD!! They don’t miss! EVER!!!”
