The Golden State Warriors clearly like hip-hop. The worlds of hip-hop and basketball are so tightly intertwined that, at times, it seems as if one cannot exist without the other.
The art of hip-hop was born and developed by urban youth across the country–the same urban youth that gravitated towards basketball. Over the last several decades, few things have impacted pop culture and everyday life amongst young people in the country more than hip-hop and hoops.
From lingo to shoes and everything in between, the two outlets have found ways to become relevant even to those who don’t follow hip-hop or the NBA.
