Joey Badas$$ will perform the song on the NBA All-Star Weekend

Who doesn’t like a Basketball-themed song; Joey Badas$$ will perform the song on the NBA All-Star Weekend.

Joey Bada$$ is a Brooklyn rapper who just unleashes a series of basketball-themed boasts on new single "Victory" – from laying down "triple-doubles" to calling himself a human "highlight reel."

Victory is backed by 90’s beats laced with snapping drums and blasting brass samples. The rapper even talks defensive strategy in the song, "I'm in a lane of my own / 2/3 when I get in the zone."

The rap song is part of Mountain Dew's new Courtside Project, which unites figures from basketball, music, style and art. "[These disciplines] are interconnected," the rapper told Billboard. "I always want to encourage the youth to be themselves and pursue their dreams, whether those are hoop dreams, Grammy dreams, or PhD dreams."


Listen to the song below.

Joey Bada$$ will perform "Victory" live for the first time at this year's NBA All-Star Weekend, which takes place February 17th-19th in New Orleans. Check that one out!
