Athlete made music you've heard

[Lowerdeck]

So yeah, there's been athletes in the past who have tempted to make music. Some of it has to be decent. Some of it, we question why they bothered.

Allen Iverson's raps wasn't too terrible. Lastings Milledge on the other hand... :blink:

Few years back Bronson Arroyo did a covers album, people here went nuts cause he was on the Sox. Did anyone actually hear it, was it any good?

Apparently Bernie Williams had a latin smooth jazz album that was really good.

Well, share stories. And recommendations.

[OGpistolpete]

I heard Kobe Bryant's K.O.B.E.

The lines were really bad, but he sounds a little like Tupac live.

[The Hardcore Canuck]

For the love of god, never listen to Shaq rap.

[Hobo]

Hoddle and Waddle FTW

[Toe]

Chorus

We are the Bears Shufflin' Crew

Shufflin' on down, doin' it for you.

We're so bad we know we're good.

Blowin' your mind like we knew we would.

You know we're just struttin' for fun

Struttin' our stuff for everyone.

We're not here to start not trouble.

We're just here to do the Super Bowl Shuffle.

Walter Payton

Well, they call me Sweetness,

And I like to dance.

Runnin' the ball is like makin' romance.

We've had the goal since training camp

To give Chicago a Super Bowl Champ.

And we're not doin' this

Because we're greedy.

The Bears are doin' it to feed the needy.

We didn't come here to look for trouble,

We just came here to do

The Super Bowl Shuffle.

Willie Gault

This is Speedy Willie, and I'm world class.

I like runnin' but i love to get the pass.

I practice all day and dance all night,

I got to get ready for the Sunday fight.

Now I'm as smooth as a chocolate swirl,

I dance a little funky, so watch me girl.

There's not one here that does it like me,

My Super Bowl Shuffle will set you free.

Mike Singletary

I'm Samurai Mike I stop'em cold.

Part of the defense, big and bold,

I've been jammin' for quite a while,

Doin' what's right and settin' the style,

Give me a chance, I'll rock you good,

Nobody messin' in my neighborhood.

I didn't come here lookin' for trouble,

I just came to do The Super Bowl Shuffle

(Repeat Chorus)

Jim McMahon

I'm the punky QB, known as McMahon.

When I hit the turf, I've got no plan.

I just throw my body all over the field.

I can't dance, but I can throw the pill.

I motivate the cats, I like to tease.

I play so cool, I aim to please.

That's why you all got here on the double

To catch me doin' the Super Bowl Shuffle.

Otis Wilson

I'm mama's boy Otis, one of a kind.

The ladies all love me

For my body and my mind.

I'm slick on the floor as I can be

But ain't no sucker gonna get past me.

Some guys are jealous

Of my style and class,

That's why some end up on their -,

I didn't come here lookin' for trouble,

I just get down to The Super Bowl Shuffle.

Steve Fuller

They say Jimbo is our man.

If Jimmy can't do it, I sure can.

This is Steve, and it's no wonder

I run like lightnin', pass like thunder.

So bring on Atlanta, bring on Dallas,

This is for Mike and Papa Bear Halas.

I'm not here to feather his ruffle,

I just came here to do

The Super Bowl Shuffle.

Mike Richardson

I'm L.A. Mike, and I play it cool.

They don't sneak by me 'cause I'm no fool.

I fly on the field and get on down.

Everybody knows I don't mess around.

I can break'em, shake'em,

Any time of day.

I like to steal it and make 'em pay,

So please don't cry to beat my hustle

'Cause I'm just here to do

The Super Bowl Shuffle.

(Repeat Chorus)

Richard Dent

The sackman's comin', I'm your man Dent.

if the quarterback's slow,

He's gonna get bent.

We stop the run, we stop the pass,

I like to dump guys on their -.

We love to play for the world's best fans,

You better start makin'

Your Super Bowl plans.

But don't get ready or go to any trouble

Unless you practice

The Super Bowl Shuffle.

Gary Fencik

It's Gary here, and I'm Mr.Clean.

They call me "hit man,"

Don't know what they mean.

They throw it long and watch me run,

I'm on my man, one-on-one.

Buddy's guys cover it down to the bone,

That's why they call us the 46 zone.

Come on everybody let's scream and yell,

We're goin' to do the Shuffle,

Then ring your bell.

William Perry

You're lookin' at the Fridge,

I'm the rookie.

I may be large, but I'm no dumb cookie.

You've seen me hit, you've seen me run,

When I kick and pass, we'll have more fun.

I can dance, you will see

The others, they all learn from me.

I don't come here lookin' for trouble,

I just came here to do

The Super Bowl Shuffle.

(Repeat Chorus)

Do wrestlers count? Because I have a theme song sung by the Florida Brothers that is absolutely hysterical and holds a treasured place in my music folder.

[Reflecto Is My Favorite Poster]

That is easily the best song made by an athlete. Closely followed by most of Tony Parker's rap songs.

[C-MIL]

For the love of god, never listen to Shaq rap.

"Biological Didn't Bother" actually helped me through some tough and confusing times as a kid.

[Benji]

John Barnes FTW.

[METALMAN]

Most definitely. You can't beat these gems:

World In Motion

[YI]

John Barnes FTW.

[Hobo]

John Barnes FTW.

Was just about to say the exact same thing.

I totally forgot about his wonderful rap career!

I actually sent a friend of mine World In Motion once and he asked me where he could get any of John Barnes rap albums....

And supposedly he's a football fan

[Cactus Drags]

Pfft, lock the thread, the Superbowl Shuffle already won.

[New Damage]

Greatest. 'Athelete'. Song. Ever.

John Cena's album wasn't too terrible at all, a couple of the tracks are actually pretty freakin' awesome, in my eyes. However, his cousin Trademarc seems to be a better rapper than Cena is.

[JoeMimic]

Chris Webber has put out a few albums. He usually gets a lot of other people on the records to make them sound somewhat decent. Gangsta Gangsta is the one song name I remember the most but he's put out 2 or 3 full albums if I recall.

[New Damage]

Yeah, Trademarc is better than Cena. His voice sounds better and doesn't seem to have to swear to try to be 'cool' like Cena does on the album.

However. WWE Originals. That was awful, save for Basic Thuganomics. That song is the best on that piece of shit album, and probably the best Cena song. It wouldn't have been quite as tooth-grindingly annoying if during Cena's 2 year title run he had Basic Thuganomics instead of My Time Is Now. With music like that, he was never gonna lose it was he?.

Anywho, end rant. Summary: Trademarc > Cena, WWE Originals-Basic Thuganomics = Shit, Basic Thuganomics > all other Cena songs.

[MalaCloudy Black]

I liked Cena's guest appearance on MURS' "H-U-S-T-L-E" remix.
