Show Notes
LeBron James is one of the defining figures in modern sport, with a career that has shaped not just basketball but music, fashion, business, and popular culture more broadly. Across more than twenty years at the top, he’s become as recognizable for his longevity and influence off the court as for everything he’s achieved on it. On this episode of Track Star, LeBron talks through the songs that shaped his world - from Jay-Z, Nelly, Dr. Dre, and Nas to Whitney Houston and Outkast. He shares stories about being referenced in rap lyrics, appearing in a Tyler, The Creator video, helping bring Beats into locker rooms in its earliest days, and why music has always been part of his everyday life. We also get into family music taste, draft-day fashion, the soundtrack of his high school years, and the one song he instantly adds to his playlist after being stumped. Can he guess them all? Let’s find out.
