2 Chainz Enlists LeBron James to A&R New Album
2 Chainz is calling on an MVP to assist with his fifth studio album, Rap or Go to the League.
LeBron James will A&R the long-awaited project, which is set for a March 1 release via Def Jam.
The rap and NBA titans sit down for an in-depth interview, which will be released by Apple Music. “I think it would be shocking for people to know how much impact you had on it,” 2 Chainz tells LeBron in the trailer, while LeBron adds, “You got a lot on there. You got a ton of substance.”
