2011 rap song featuring LeBron James, Kevin Durant released

It ain't easy to keep secrets hidden on the Internet, but the long-rumored, full-length rap track featuring LeBron James and Kevin Durant hadn't been available for public consumption until now.

The song, titled "It Ain't Easy," was recorded during the 2011 lockout and while snippets had been leaked, it wasn't until the track's producer, Franky Wahoo, put it on his SoundCloud page last week that the full 3:45 song was publicly available.

The song, which primarily focuses on the two former MVPs rapping about making it from humble beginnings to the NBA, came about when Durant, then a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder, and James, then a member of the Miami Heat, were just fooling around in a recording studio in Ohio.
