Larry Drew II raps about his situation

While North Carolina is preparing for the ACC tournament, its former point guard, Larry Drew II, is apparently practicing for a rap career.

This twitvid of Drew rapping at his 21st birthday party has surfaced, and although all of the lyrics are difficult to make out, his rap seems to deal partially with his decision to leave UNC. "They tried to tell me just to play my role ... but who wants to stick with a script full of typos?" he raps at one point.

Also, he raps: "The media, they talk but they'll never confront you."

Drew, a junior who began the season as UNC's starting point guard, announced he was transferring in February, four games after he was replaced in the starting lineup by freshman Kendall Marshall. The Tar Heels, now ranked No. 6 in the nation, went on to win the regular-season ACC title without him, and are the top seed in this week's league tourney.

Drew, the son of Atlanta Hawks head coach Larry Drew, has not announced where he will transfer.

Also, for those on Twitter, check out the hashtag #LarryDrewLyrics for some fan-suggested lines for Drew's raps.


examples:

"U know when I ball, I ain't no John Wall, but can't be touched when it comes to going AWOL"

"Kbutter drops dimes, falcon drops bombs. But I'm the leagues top pick if you ask my moms."

"My parents think I'm bred for NBA Hoops. I can't throw an alley, but I'll sure say 'oops.'"

"One, two, three and to the four. I'll turn it over before my team gets down the floor."

"I rap about being lucky like a 4-leaf clover. Too bad my guard skills start and end with turnovers."

"I've got visions of being a leader like the man named Malcolm, but I'm the only one who could hold back the Black Falcon."

"It was all a dream. I used to read word-up magazine. then I quit because my mom was crazier than Charlie Sheen."

Observer sports, too classic!! And too true.
For some reason I feel we'll never see LDIII make an important contribution to any future basketball team.

It's a toss as to which he is worse at, playing point guard or rapping. I read on one message board that Drew2 should have gotten Player of the Year in the ACC or Co-Player of the Year Along with Sharon(his mom). Without their Play, UNC might have ended up with another mediocre year.

Looks like Anomyous 11:42 got one of those thin letters from UNC.

thank you for your interest, unfortunately...

Don't know what it says really. My letter from UNC had a lot of housing and registration info in it.

Isn't that true about all rap songs? Rememeber, you can't spell "crap" without "rap."
