Listen: Cadence Weapon drops rap tribute to Connor McDavid

Auston Matthews isn't the only young NHL star with his own theme song.

Cadence Weapon dropped a new track dedicated to Connor McDavid on Wednesday, and it also features plenty of nods to the phenom's teammates.

The Edmonton-based rapper, whose real name is Roland "Rollie" Pemberton, told CBC News' Wallis Snowdon that the inspiration to write about the Oilers captain came back in December.

"I felt the energy when I was in Edmonton over the holidays and it was like a fever pitch," he said. "People were going so crazy about Connor McDavid and the Oilers and I wanted to harness that energy in a song, and it feels like the timing is perfect now."

Edmonton clinched its first playoff berth in over a decade Wednesday night, and McDavid now leads the league in both assists (63) and points (91).

If that doesn't deserve a tribute, we don't know what does.
