Drake x LeBron x Chris Bosh | WHO'S INTERVIEWING WHO
Drake's ties to basketball run deeper than courtside appearances
at Toronto Raptors games and wearing basketball jerseys at his
concerts, he's a fervent basketball fan who has developed
friendships with top-tier acts in the sports from LeBron James
to Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant. For the latest video on
LeBron's UNINTERRUPTED YouTube channel, Drake sits
down with James and former Raptor and Miami Heat all-star
Chris Bosh, as they discuss their admiration for one another
and former Raptor-turned-veteran journeyman Vince Carter's
influence on their lives.
In the clip, the trio reflected on their respective careers and
how they eventually met each other. Bosh took a moment to
praise Drake for his success and all he's done for Toronto,
saying that while being labeled a "Canadian artist" used to
have a "negative connotation at the time," Drake found a
way to step outside of that box and "do so many great things."
"It's been a journey and it's been incredible to do it this way,"
"It's been a journey and it's been incredible to do it this way,"
the rapper told Bosh, later adding that "there was a time
where it was really, it was really tough to feel like we could
ever transcend that actual literal border" but his hometown
has created a "monster" due to the passion and support
from fans.
The men then shifted their focus to discuss Carter and his
affect on each of their lives. James starts by reminiscing
about how impactful the eight-time all-star's athleticism was
to him as he developed his own craft.
"Vince was that guy where you're like if he gets one dribble
inside that three-point line, you better move," James said.
"For a kid like myself who started to find his way with some
athleticism, you looked at Vince like, 'Damn, I ain't gon be
able to get to that point but if I could get half [or] three-fourths
of it, then I'm doing something right.'"
Drake on the other hand, says that Carter's presence made
Toronto's nightlife feel "larger than life."
"We had celebrities coming to our city and performing that
would’ve never been here before. We had rappers and
people from here that were acting like we were in New York,
" Drizzy added. "People were driving different cars and
starting businesses, he created a culture for us that we had
only seen on television."
