After a long career of taking heads (and the occasional ear) off in the ring, former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson has tried his hand at a lot of new things, including poetry.
This week, Iron Mike has dropped the kind of lyrics we’d have expected of him back in the 1990s when he was still beating people to a pulp for a living.
Of course, it’s all because he’s back in fight mode right now, coaching Chris Brown for his upcoming fight with rapper Soulja Boy — which we still can’t fully believe is going down.
Tyson is coaching Brown while the undefeated Floyd Mayweather coaches Soulja Boy, though we doubt Floyd is going to spend any time penning verses for Breezy.
So far, Tyson has only dropped the hook, but TMZ has reported that Chris Brown will be recording his verse later in the week and there will be a music video made once it’s done. Say what you will about this fight, but the fighters certainly aren’t shying away from the promo…
Listen to the hook for “If You Show Up” below to get a sense for what the main theme of the track is.
Anyone know what’s at stake? Money? Or bragging rights?
Stake is a percentage I think. If you own a stake in a company you own a percentage of the company.
Stake is a broad word.
You a broad.
Lol u mad because you don’t know the different meanings of the word, broad? Hahahaha dummy
You a broad
“After a long career of taking heads (and the occasional ear) of in the ring” lmao
Soulja Boy is a legend. His life, his story and what he’s been through since his childhood until he created the empire Stacks on Deck Entertainment make him an unpaired genius non-lyrical rapper. skkrt
mike tyson greates rapper alive.
platinum status.
f*uck Jay -Z
I’m really surprised that the majority hasnt realized how ridiculous the whole thing is and actually getting hyped for this. This is definitely a candidate for the biggest L for Hip Hop in 2017
Definitely not Hip Hop but still an L.
better than anything soulja is capable off
Is it wrong that I actually kinda enjoyed this, big Tyson fan here.
Tyson looks like he would make Soulja and Chris wear belly shirts if they was cellies.
50 Tyson and 50 Cent should feature on this so we can get all of the rappers with speech impediments on one track…or make a whole album and call themselves “The Firmly”
My nigga Mike Tyson teaching Breezy to knock his ass out LMAO
Tyson is an American icon, I was so glad to be able to see him do that hangover movie stuff and other things to get back on his feet.
Isn’t he a convicted rapist?
He was set up for that bullshit by some gold digger bitch and her goons.
Source?
The reality is all 3 of those black men have sexually assaulted women before, c’mon dude look at them lol
Hope come back feet knock those hate down
Yesterday I saw the video of Soulja Boy training, what a fucking pussy! There’s women and boys in middle school that are stronger than him. I won’t be surprised if the boxing gloves are too heavy for him. Chris Brown a bitch too, but I’ll assume he has more strength than Soulja “little girl arms” Boy….
Chris Brown scumbag that he is, is way bigger then this dude and actually pretty damn athletic. The guy can literally do backflips and shit like that, his dancing footwork is very advanced stuff.
Anybody read the “battle royale” sequence in Ellison’s “Invisible Man?” Or recall the slave fights that were dramatized in “Django Unchained?” Art imitates life imitates art imitates life. US culture so desperate.
this is hilarious.. still sounds better than yachty uzi and Kodak
Not bad from the champ Iron Mike Tyson and the beat is nice
Will Soulja Boy do a Superman punch like those MMA fighters? Hmm lol
If Tyson made a rap album I would buy it, not like it could ever be worse then all the mumble hipster crappers, at least he is a legit champ.
Smh….
Mike tyson probbly better lyricist than soulja boy
Better than anything Drake has ever put out
Soulja boi on that richards simmons training/ youtube boxing tutorials
Nooooooooooooooo!
