PictureThat Show Odell Beckham Jr is Becoming Hip-Hop’s New Favorite Athlete

Slowly but surely, Odell Beckham Jr. is undoubtedly morphing into hip-hop’s go-to athlete. Not only is the Giants wide receiver in national headlines constantly but he’s also reigning the rap world as well. His friendship with Drake has been especially profiled as Odell recently revealed he was staying with the Toronto rapper while he finished the now platinum album, Views From The 6. Aside from Drizzy though, OBJ has had many recent run in with hip-hop.
On May 2, the Giants player attended the 2016 Met Gala and hung out with a clique full of rappers. The photo of OBJ, Future, Nas, and Wiz Khalifa went viral with fans taking notice that hip-hop finally held some recognition at the coveted annual event. It wasn’t a coincidence that OBJ was right by their sides as he truly is becoming just as relevant in hip-hop as sports.
Let’s not forget Odell raps too. In January , he dropped a freestyle that had the internet ablaze. Backed by Young Dolph‘s “Preach” instrumental, OBJ went ham.
