Listen: Pacers' Oladipo releases debut track, 'Song for You'
Victor Oladipo wants to share his singing voice with the world.
The Indiana Pacers guard recently uploaded his debut track, his own version of Donny Hathaway's "A Song for You."
"What inspired me to put out my own music now is that I believe it is a gift of mine and when God blesses you with a gift you should share it with others," Oladipo told Edwin Ortiz from Complex via email. "If not then you're doing yourself and Him a disservice.
"Donny Hathaway is one of my favorite artists and 'A Song for You' is one of the songs I could really relate to, so in honor of him I remixed his version of the song and flipped it into a modern day story of something someone might go through today in the second half."
Oladipo was shipped to Indiana this summer as part of a package that sent All-Star Paul George to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
