Well before Kevin Durant and LeBron James made meeting in the NBA Finals an annual event, and even prior to the Oklahoma City Thunder taking on the Miami Heat for the Larry O’Brien Trophy, the game’s two biggest stars were spending plenty of time together.
With the NBA going through a lockout prior to the 2011-12 season, Durant and James worked out together, and from that came a rap song they collaborated one. The track remained under wraps until its release last month.
“We’re both hip-hop guys, we love hip-hop,” James explained of the song after a Lakers practice.
