It is common knowledge that the famous musician Jay-Z is a Lakers fan. So much so that, three years ago, Lakers fans were trolled by the Sacramento Kings. A particular fan gave his opinion about some new rookie players that don’t actually exist.

Jay-Z was one such “player” who the fan thought had a lot of potential. The fans fell for it because Jay-Z’s attendance was always highlighted during Lakers games.

In recent news, Jay-Z and Beyonce’s daughter Blue Ivy attended a Lakers game and became a fan immediately. Regardless of whether she understood the game, it was observed that the 8-year-old was completely immersed in the game.

We have a fan moment from Blue Ivy as a video shows her jumping up and down with excitement and hiding behind her father when Lebron walks up to them.

Now, ESPN tweeted a video of an 18-year-old LeBron James driving to school in a Hummer, listening to Jay-Z songs. The video has James talking about a lot.

He starts off by inviting the viewer into his Hummer H2. After putting on some music he says, ” This is Jay-Z right here. This right here is something y’all know nothing about. This is my man right here.”

The video goes to some of LeBron’s basketball highlights. LeBron then proceeds to sing the song lyric to lyric and lists the singers he is fond of listening to.

“We listening to Jay (Z), 50 (cents), Eminem,” young James says.

Further, James describes all the features the car offers. He also adds that it takes 40$ to fill up the tank of the car, which is killing him. Then he continues to rap another Jay-Z song.

LeBron’s mother, Gloria, took out a $50,000 loan to buy her son a Hummer H2 as a birthday gift in 2002. James put the vehicle up for auction in November 2018, with a minimum reserve price of $50,000.

That car brought a lot of controversy around James in high school in his senior year. Its price effectively circumvented Ohio High School Athletic Association’s rules that prohibit gifts of greater value than $100.

The OHSAA began an investigation into how James acquired a 2003 Hummer H2 vehicle.

State officials were concerned that James, a senior, might have violated his amateur status by accepting an improper gift.
