“Rest in peace to the Mamba and baby Gigi, still remember where I was standing after the three-peat,” raps Dame, in his opening bars. “Throwers lined up yelling Kobe but playing peewee, who you know that shoot the freebie right after they tear Achilles.” Rounding things out is Kobe’s fellow Los Angeles icon Snoop Dogg, whose presence never fails to make a track more enjoyable. “Five-time champion, the eighth wonder raining on em,” raps Snoop. “Take cover, switched up then changed numbers.”

QUOTABLE LYRICS

Rest in peace to the Mamba and baby Gigi,
Still remember where I was standing after the three-peat
Throwers lined up yelling Kobe but playing peewee
Who you know that shoot the freebie right after they tear Achilles
