From ballers to... ballers.
We all know that there are some, okay, maybe few, athletes who have a nice, lyrical flow. But what about the other way around?

I’m talking so good, they were star players and even received full-blown scholarships to college. For most of them, their passion lay in music. So, instead of scoring high on the board, they’re now scoring high on the charts.
