“@NBA: Wing$ by @Macklemore & @RyanLewis – the 2013 @NBAAllStar anthem! http://t.co/tDhlyZgZ“
The NBA has apparently officially endorsed a song about Nike shoes that includes these lyrics:
“But see I look inside the mirror and think Phil Knight tricked us all
Will I stand for change or stay in my box
These Nikes help me define me, but I’m trying to take mine off”
I note the original is titled “Wings” (no dollar sign). I don’t know what the lyrical changes are yet, but it’s clear the artists have self-designated their own revamp as The Sellout Version. Messrs. Macklemore & Lewis obviously know what they’re doing.
As for the NBA…
