We’ve all witnessed NBA players entering the arena wearing headphones and listening to music. While everyone focuses on their pre-game outfits, there’s little or no information on what players actually listen to. Lakers star LeBron James loves listening to songs, and it’s evident through his social media activities. In fact, the music industry is something he has been fond of for quite some time now.

A few years ago, King James shared his exclusive playlist on Apple Music, also dubbed as the ‘LeBron’s Unbreakable‘ playlist. However, it has been four years since then and we don’t know anything about his updated playlist. He has showered his love for some of the best rappers in the world through his social media.
