In the annals of NBA history, an all-time great duos list usually sees a few common names. Whether it be the Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls cohort Scottie Pippen duo or a certain Los Angeles Lakers pair. So, to make a song honoring Kobe Bryant and partner-in-crime Shaquille O’Neal needs an all-time great music pairing as well. As a result, a legendary hip-hop duo is making a comeback.

Sharing the cover art for the single, he had an interesting opportunity for fans of the duo.
