Lebron James made the leap from a St. Vincent-St. High School in Ohio, to the NBA franchise Cleveland Cavaliers without missing a step. The talent and ferociousness that King James exudes on the hardwood is baffling. He is now a global superstar and has recently inspired the film "More Than A Game" about his career to this point. Just yesterday, Interscope Records released a soundtrack which features heavy weights in the hiphop game including up-and-comer, Drake, T.I., Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z, Chris Brown, Kanye West, Eminem, and many others. The album was released mainly by Interscopes' sub-label Zone 4 Inc/Productions headed by producer Polow Da Don. Singles on the album include "Stronger" by Mary J. Blige, "Drop It Low" by Ester Dean, and "Forever" a hard-hitting track by Drake featuring, Lil Wayne, Kanye, and Eminem, a rather tough track if you ask me.
I'm sure Interscope President Jimmy Iovine jumped at the opportunity to work with Lionsgate films and Harvey Mason Media on this project. Not only is this a great project to be a part of, but its bound to be a big seller in terms of albums. Welcome to the music business Lebron. To celebrate, Lebron hosted a star-studded album release party last Tuesday September 22nd, at Marquee here in NYC.
It seems like LBJ is becoming more and more comfortable here in NY, a la his Yankee cap obsession and palin' around with Jay-Z. As a hardcore New York Knick fan, I'm hoping Madison Square Garden becomes his permanent residence in 2010 as he will become an unrestricted free-agent. Let the bidding war begin!
