I sometimes sit back and laugh at how basketball used hip hop in all it's videos, arenas, highlight shows, etc...all through the 90s until about the early 00's. Then when they started making cats wear suits, they distanced themselves from it entirely all to please a segment of the population who believe NBA players are thugs but the statistics show otherwise.

Jew Silver loves the negro audience bringing in the ratings but doesn't want to acknowledge their existence, that's why they got fukking Stang performing

I thought they'd have Mariah singing to Kobe like she did for Mike at his last all-star game.

The hell are they doing that far they know the target audience for the game are blacks I guess they are pandering to get middle aged to old whites...

Not that sting is bad or anything I just don't think this is his target audience.

NAH ALL STAR WEEKEND HAVE ALWAYS HAD "URBAN" ACTS UP UNTIL LAST YEAR.

THIS SOME ADAM SILVER shyt.




​

true, I'm just speaking on the totality of the sport. No music genre & sport has ever been as intertwined as hip hop and basketball. I remember stuff like this

or using hip hop songs on shyt like NBA Inside Stuff jam sessions.....now they're too good for the genre

They need NaS

 

[GoldenGlove]

Why?

I guess people of all races like Sting and his music. But, I would have preferred maybe Drake or Fetty Wap.
