The NBA's Impact on Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole's Music
The interconnection between hip-hop culture and basketball is unmistakable, exemplified by frequent rapper sightings at NBA matches and basketball players venturing into rap studios.
This crossover is particularly apparent in Kendrick Lamar's music, where his lyrics frequently name-drop renowned basketball figures like Kobe Bryant.
