IFWT_Tony Parker rapping

C’mon fam!  Tony Parker has quit rapping?!  Thank goodness he’s got basketball to fall back on (*Sarcasm*). Lol. Yes, late last week Tony announced that he has retired … from his rap career. The paparazzi caught up with Lakers’ baller Nick Young for his reaction. Must be a slow news day?!

…Arguably the goofiest turn in his public life came in 2007, when Parker released his debut album “TP,” an 11-track rap album in his native tongue of French.

This foray into music has been something of a punchline ever since, if only because the whole ordeal seemed decidedly un-Spurs. And while it was safe to predict that Parker would never rap again, he confirmed as much in a recent interview with Tele-Loisirs (via Project Spurs and EOB, translation via Google Translate and my own sense of what constitutes a real sentence):

In 2007, his music career was launched when he released his first album which featured guest appearances from Jamie Foxx and Booba Soprano. The single from this album sold nearly 50,000 copies. Despite this good result, after a time considering recording a second effort, he changed his mind and now he confirms that his career is over. “I’m retired from music.” What a pity …

 

Via TMZ:

Tony Parker inspired YouTube comments like, “Tony, what the f*ck is this?” and “Bad bad bad.”

Maybe it’s a good thing Tony decided to pull the plug … at least according to L.A. Lakers player Nick Young … because, as we said before, you were really, really bad.
