During his involvement on Tobe Nwigwe’s new rap video, Steph Curry revealed a previously unseen side of himself.
The NBA great is revered by his teammates for his selfless attitude and humility, despite the fact that many would forgive him for being more conceited given his extraordinary talent.
A different side of the Golden State Warriors player was shown in an appearance on rap star Nwigwe’s rap video.
In the video, Curry is seen holding a fishing rod while dressed in cargo shorts, a button-down shirt, a vest, and a pair of white Salehe Bembury Crocs.
His father taught him to “flick my wrist,” and he is “my father’s son,” as he proclaims in one of his song lines.
Think I’m packing a pistol, the way that ratcheted up on me.
After I’m done with the basket, they should place it in a coffin.
‘Lil Fish, Big Pond’, a popular tune
Tobe Nwigwe, widely considered a top poet in the rap game, penned the song.
Tobe is a native Texan whose Houston Rockets have been swept by Curry and the Warriors in previous years. Despite this bitter rivalry, he managed to get Curry to appear on his new song.
Tobe has joined the chorus of people commenting on Curry’s modesty by saying he was surprised to find one of the NBA’s biggest stars “to be so genuinely nice.”
The two artists first crossed paths through the Apple+ documentary “Underrated,” and now Curry can be seen in Nwigwe’s “Lil Fish, Big Pond” music video, which premiered on Wednesday.
“This is the perfect medium to stretch into that kind of persona,” Curry told The Athletic of his confident demeanor in the clip.
It would have been helpful to have this video before Sacramento Game 7. That would have been a great talking point. It’s cool to take on the persona that fans have of my game.
