LeBron James previewed Kendrick Lamar’s album ‘DAMN’ on Instagram

The King got first dibs on Kendrick’s newest project.

LeBron James isn’t just a basketball player, he’s a music connoisseur. In the last week, he previewed new music from Meek Mill and Nipsey Hussle.

You can add West Coast rapper Kendrick Lamar to that list.

James took to Instagram Stories to listen to Kendrick’s new album, titled DAMN. You can see in the video, the four-time league MVP co-signs the project’s validity as he dances and bops his head from song to song.

The album hasn’t even been released to the public yet, but when you’re a three-time NBA champion, the world is your oyster.

James has been relatively vocal when it comes to his musical tastes. He curated the playlist for the NBA 2K14, and revealed his favorite song (at the time) was fittingly Future’s hit song “March Madness.”

It’s safe to say K-Dot ranks high on The King’s music hierarchy. And that ain’t a bad place to be, considering he’s the best basketball player in the world.
