The Nas trolling of NBA rookie Lonzo Ball won’t stop.
During Tuesday’s (December 12) game against the New York Knicks, the Los Angeles Lakers point guard showed up to the famed Madison Square Garden wearing a hoodie featuring an image of himself on Nas’ It Was Written cover.
The t-shirt trolling comes months after Ball declared that “nobody listen to Nas no more” and referred to the Queensbridge legend as being “outdated.”
The Illmatic creator may have had the last laugh though, given that Ball and the Lakers lost to the Knicks in overtime. Nasty Nas offered his congratulations to the Knicks in an upload made to Instagram.
Ball’s bold fashion choice was met with a great deal of commentary on social media. Check out a sample of the reactions below.
this dude is such a cornball, making a hoodie with his goofy ass drake looking self on Nas’ album cover. I hope he at least went and listened to Nas.
i bet it was Lavar’s idea….this family is mad dysfunctional
He should be focused on making shots instead of Nas
Hes a bust
Lakers wasted money on him smh
Hold this L, Nas. How you gonna let Lonzo keep styling on your broke ass? And Knicks suck, Nets are better. HOV!
You is one consistent dude
Na. He’s one scorned bum that had his heart broken when he found out Nas was out there dating, married etc.
Finaly figured it out “fuck queensbridge” is lonzo ball! Do the world a favor hang yourself
These you lil kids don’t know shit. Whether you like nas or not, he would crush any rapper that lonzo ball listens to. The lil kids of today have no respect for the golden era because they think their rap music is better than the golden era of hip hop. Look, the corporations control their rap music. Once the radio stops playing rappers like drake, lil wayne and gucci bag they will die because they have no talent. Hip-hop artist have talent and can survive without the radio. LONG LIVE HIP HOP MUSIC AND DEATH TO THE rap YEARS 2000- 2018.
Please. Even LL COOL J couldn’t live without his radio. Let’s see if you get it. I bet you not.
I come from the hip hop golden era. Of course, i get it. L.L. Cool J was my man but he lost his skills. When you have no more skills you die in hip-hop. Public enemy is still alive because they still have something left in the tank. I love public enemy’s new album, by the way. Today’s rapper have no skills and will die too without the radio. It’s all about the skills. Hip hop artists have talent and rappers do not. They will die like Cool J because they never had talent. Cool J at least had skills .The radio makes corny ass rappers hot but not good. Once the radio is done with them their careers are over. Hot doesn’t means anything unless you have skills. Lil wayne, Drake, Fetty Wap and others will die once the radio declares them not being so called hot anymore. Rap fans not hip-hop fans will move on to the next hottest trash and forget all about the corny corporate slaves. LONG LIVE HIP HOP MUSIC AND DEATH TO THE RAP YEARS
How is that trollin?? You copy him. You cant come up with something so special and long lasting yourself. You basically admitting Nas is better than you. FACTS.
Lonzo ball better concentrate on basketball rather than corny ass rap comparisons. He comes from the weak ass rap years and knows nothing about hip hop music. Whether you like nas or not, nas would kill all of his favorite no talented rappers. Lonzo ball is just a lil kid that is failing at basketball. I didn’t think he was going to be this bad. A no talented basketball player hyping up no talented rappers, swish. LONG LIVE HIP HOP MUSIC AND DEATH TO THE YEARS.
who?
That’s a homo move, he from the suburbs with palm trees and sunshine, why would you want your face super imposed over projects? You not cut from that cloth, trolling marketing tactics is mad whack. These hurry come-up microwave rappers wouldn’t have lasted a second in the golden-era, they do and sound like the corporate A&R’s tell them to sound, no message, no hot 16’s, just mumbling and no food for thought, killing the art form. We need to big up the new breed of emcees that’s carrying on tradition, not these Mickey mouse say anything for a buck ? balls who can’t even write the wack shit they spit, they all have teams in the booth with them reciting lyrics the next man wrote. FOH
Bum ass Ball is a dumbass white boy…
dumbass racist
Just stop. You’re an idiot.
FactsOnly has no facts…the definition of whack!
Hopefully this kid can rebound and play to his potential. I don’t see him in a laker uniform in the next couple of years. I see him in a Bulls uniform. Prediction: Breaking News: Lonzo Ball traded to Bulls for two players plus a 2022 draft pick.
Bulls 2022 Lineup:
Lonzo Ball – Guard
Bobby Portis- Forward
Kristaps Porziņģis- Power Forward/Center
Lebron James- Power Forward/Guard
Kyrie Irving- Guard
Bulls 2022 NBA World Champions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the end, Nas will go down as one of the best rappers to ever live. Lonzo Ball will likely be a bench player in a few years.
Hopefully Nas doesn’t even bother. This family is just trying to keep their name out there. If Nas mentions Lonzo’s name on a song, it’s just free publicity
Herman Munster in a hoodie!
Good Grief… Nas G.O.A.T all day everyday!
Lonzo “Pimple, zits or spots” Ball
Disrespecting the Goat Nas is like disrespecting me.
