helloyassine on “Why Allen Iverson’s rap career failed”

YouTuber helloyassine looks at “Why Allen Iverson’s rap career failed.” The summer of 2000 saw Iverson release his debut single “40 Bars” under the name Jewelz, and culminated with his album debut, Non Fiction, being blocked from release by NBA commissioner David Stern. Iverson was at risk of breaking the NBA rule which could “disqualify players who engage in offensive conduct including inappropriate speech.”
