The ears of Tony Parker had to whistle after Booba's appearance on the show CKO (Culture Knockout) this weekend. The rapper spoke of his collaboration with the former leader of the France team and the Spurs in 2005, for the songs “Top of the Game” (see below) with Fabolous and “Welcome to Texas” (ah, steaks as big as Croatia…). The least we can say is that he does not necessarily proudly claim this artistic connection…
“I'm a fan, I went there because there was Fabolous, the NBA, the Spurs… They were bars with Tony Parker and the TP Family. Eva Longoria, she loved me, she called his dog Booba. Was Tony Parker serious about rap? He was serious, brother. At the time I was recording with Kore and he was the one who took this banana in hand.
Me, that made me happy to make a Music video with Fabolous. At the time it was a top 5 artist, in style, in everything… I found myself in San Antonio with Tim Duncan, a music video with Fablous… I knew very well that it was a big mistake. sea. Tony Parker, bro, he's busted through the wall. Outside of basketball, it is of no use to culture. […] Phew player, but you have to know your place.”
Tony Parker once explained that he was really hesitant about launching a musical career. In the opinion of professionals and for basketball fans, it is still excellent news that he has focused fully on the NBA, where he won four titles and built an anthology career.
