In the NBA, arguments frequently swirl around who is the greatest of all time, or which team will win the championship. However, the topic recently took an unexpected turn due to none other than LeBron James. He was named the NBA’s best singer by the talented Diddy himself.
LeBron James, the basketball great recognized for his on-court talents, has recently made news for a completely other reason. It was his singing abilities, or we could say his, infamous blunders with song lyrics. This always takes the internet by storm, and fans leave no time in making memes about him.
On September 18th, LeBron James took to his Instagram stories showing himself singing along to the Jacquees and Fabolous song “Pick Up”. This is on Diddy’s newly released album “The Love Album: Off the Grid.” This video drew the attention of fans as well as Diddy himself.

Furthermore, Diddy praised LeBron’s performance and named him the NBA’s best singer, saying, “Nah, my brother [KingJames] got the best voice in the NBA!” “I adore you! I adore you!“. The Lakers star always made headlines with not only his basketball prowess but also his connection in the music industry.
Notably, Drake gave an attention-grabbing speech just before his concert to appreciate James. While some of the fans caught the part where he called the building James’s building, it did display the impact he has on even Drake himself. This exemplifies that James is truly a multifaceted personality.
LeBron James has made waves for getting lyrics wrong in the past
Given LeBron James’ previous musical mistakes, Diddy’s statement is an unexpected surprise. In one of the most noted instances, he misheard the words to Lil Durk’s “Stay Down,” singing “Yabadabadoo old damn navy” instead of “Hopping out the car, no photos, baby“.
With this lyrical mix-up, the internet had an eventful day as they posted about him and made engaging memes that are iconic. But despite the internet critics, LeBron James continued to post videos of himself singing along to music he likes.
In some ways, his most recent video singing to “Pick Up” has made up for his earlier bad performances by showcasing his singing growth. While fans might troll him about his, we can’t deny that James always showcases his real side.
This Instagram story has probably helped gain more attention to the album as the King himself was seen enjoying it. Undeniably, LeBron James always gives fans something to talk about, be it his on-court or off-court skills.
