LeBron James’ life has been Hamilton-ified!
The online media company DOSE released a video this week titled LeBron: The Musical which parodies the opening number “Alexander Hamilton” of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s popular musical Hamilton and recounts James’ basketball career.
Actors portray James as well as Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Dwyane Wade of the Chicago Bulls, and Chris Bosh of the Miami Heat. Michael Jordan also makes a brief appearance in the video.
“How do you block him, stop him, run out the clock on this Sportsmen, four time MVP, with more time on the court as a freshmen the best of them get celebrated, then hated, then back home fully decorated,” the actor playing Curry sings to introduce James’ story.
“Small forward, father of three, without a father.Future looking brighter, St Vincent was much whiter, he felt like an outsider, he kept the D tighter. At fourteen, he’s getting watched by each team and every sports writer,” the actor playing Wade continues.
