Kawhi teases 'Culture Jam' music project
Kawhi Leonard is crossing over into the music industry.
The Los Angeles Clippers star appeared on Instagram Live for the first time Monday to chat with high school basketball player Mikey Williams about a new music project they're both involved in called "Culture Jam."
"We got a 'Culture Jam' project, it's just merging hip-hop and basketball together, you know what I mean? Pretty much, you know, coming from our background, it goes hand in hand," Leonard told Williams. "So May 7, we got NBA YoungBoy and Rod Wave dropping a single. It's fire. I appreciate you for being involved in it as well."
Leonard also previewed one of the tracks from the project.

The song, titled "Everything Different," will drop Friday along with a music video starring Williams, according to Abel Shifferaw of Complex. The full project is slated for release later in 2021.
