Miles Bridges dropped a new song this week, making a case for the title of the best rapper in the NBA. We’ve seen many players sharing their time between the court and the studio, and the Charlotte Hornets star has exceeded on both grounds.
Recently, he claimed he was the best rapper in the league, even better than Damian Lillard or Lonzo Ball, two players who have dropped singles and albums in recent years. 2022 has been very entertaining for Miles, as he’s dropped a couple of tracks and the most recent one drew a lot of comments.
Bridges, also known as RTB MB, recently released Her & Her, a song where he talks about women, using strong language to refer to them while rapping about a life very different from the one he has as an NBA player.
These lyrics raised a lot of eyebrows around the league, with many fans criticizing the player for talking about these things while being in a comfortable position.
Plenty of folks used this as an opportunity to troll Bridges, mostly because of the strong language he used in the song. They consider this would bother the NBA, and his boss, Michael Jordan. The song has strong words, as almost every rap in the world, and some think this could be a problem for the forward.
Miles Bridges rapping about scamming and hoes while still being a productive NBA player in a contract year is amazing I just hope MJ doesn't find out.

This has always been interesting to me. People of different professions do this all the time. Ex) Actors/Actresses display actions they don’t really live by everyday in their art and don’t get judged. Why can’t musicians do that too?

Just listened to the mixtape. By far the best nba rap I've heard in my life. Respect to Master P tho.

It looks like Miles is happy with what he’s doing. He dropped some good bars and most fans seem to like them. It’s not like he will get punished for this, as he’s not the first player to rap. Still, fire as this was, some think the league would look at him in a different way.
