Lonzo Ball releases rap song dedicated to brother LaMelo image

The beginning of the 16th year of LaMelo Ball's life has been sweeter than almost any celebrity kid ever featured on MTV

The high school hoops phenom, ranked No.  7 overall in the class of 2019 by ESPN.com, was gifted a Lamborghini by his older brother, Lakers rookie point guard Lonzo Ball to celebrate his birthday in late August. Then, his family's independent Big Baller Brand made him the first prep player with his very own signature sneaker, releasing the 'Melo Ball 1."

Now, his big bro is extolling his youngest sibling's greatness on wax. "Zo," Lonzo's stage name, dropped his debut rap song "Melo Ball 1,": and ode to LaMelo Friday. The Balls teased a snippet of the song in the commercial, announcing the launch of LaMelo's $395 kicks. Now, you can hear the song, which features up-and-coming singer Kenneth Paige, in its entirety. 

Peep Zo's bars: 

"Born to ball. That's just what it is/I'mma a king. Lil bro a prince/Throwing racks and you throwing fits/How you hating and you bangin' this?" 

As long as Lonzo keeps dropping dimes the way he showed he's capable of in the NBA Summer League, who cares if he drops rhymes in his spare time?  LaMelo is just living it up.
