New Ice Cube BIG3 Rap Song Plus List of All 13 Players, Coaches He References

The BIG3 is as official as it gets, there’s no denying that at this point. The second-year league has big-time partnerships with Adidas and Fox Sports, as well as a 2018 roster featuring several new and exciting players. In addition to all those factors, they also have a hip-hop icon in their front office — Ice Cube. On Thursday, Cube dropped the second version of the official BIG3 theme song. Essentially, it’s the same as the first one only with updated players and coaches.

Check it out below:

Players and coaches referenced:
(in order of appearance)

  • Julius Erving – Head Coach, Tri-State
  • Baron Davis – Guard, 3’s Company
  • Nate Robinson – Guard, Tri-State
  • Nancy LiebermanHead Coach, Power
  • Kenyon MartinForward, Trilogy
  • Chauncey BillupsGuard, Killer 3’s

  • Charles OakleyHead Coach, Killer 3’s
  • George GervinHead Coach, Ghost Ballers
  • Rick MahornHead Coach, Trilogy
  • Rick BarryHead Coach, Ball Hogs
  • Jermaine O’NealCenter, Tri-State

That’s a pretty impressive list, although I think Amare Stoudemire, Metta World Peace, Stephen JacksonMike Bibby, and Chris “Birdman” Andersen probably have enough cache to have deserved a shout-out.

It should be noted that although he appears in the video for Ice Cube’s new BIG3 theme song, Allen Iverson will not be a part of the league in 2018.
