Lonzo Ball Clarifies His Role in LiAngelo’s Viral Song “Tweaker”
Lonzo Ball recently addressed confusion surrounding his involvement in his younger brother LiAngelo Ball’s new hit song, “Tweaker”. The track, which gained massive attention after its release on January 3, 2025, had fans questioning Lonzo’s contribution after his name appeared as both a writer and vocal contributor on streaming platforms. However, the NBA star was quick to clarify the situation on X (formerly Twitter), humorously stating, “Only credit I deserve is the cover art lol G really that! #YearOfG.”
LiAngelo’s Growing Music Career
The song, which already boasts over 4 million views on YouTube, has sparked interest from fans due to its nostalgic sound, reminiscent of the Cash Money/Hot Boys era. Fans were introduced to the track when LiAngelo Ball played it during a stream on Neon, which quickly went viral. This is just the latest in LiAngelo’s burgeoning music career, which has seen increasing success and attention. Despite the initial confusion over his brother’s role, it’s clear that LiAngelo is now fully in the spotlight for his music.
Lonzo’s Humble Approach
Despite being credited for writing and providing vocals on the song, Lonzo Ball expressed that he did not deserve such recognition. In his post, he downplayed his role and expressed support for his brother’s success, suggesting that LiAngelo wanted to put him in the credits to perhaps provide extra financial benefit. Lonzo’s humility and support for his brother are evident as he continues to back LiAngelo in his music career, staying in the background while letting his younger brother shine.
Online Feud with Cam’ron
Meanwhile, LiAngelo has been involved in an ongoing online feud with Cam’ron, the rapper-turned-analyst, who mocked LiAngelo’s career path and his stints overseas. Cam’ron made a sarcastic remark about LiAngelo not being “NBA good,” which prompted a fiery response from LiAngelo on his own podcast, What an Experience. LiAngelo defended his skills, challenging Cam’ron’s comments and maintaining that he’s still “hooping” in the G League.
The Ball Brothers Support Each Other
Despite the criticism, Lonzo and his brothers, LiAngelo and LaMelo, continue to support each other. LiAngelo’s journey in music and basketball has been a topic of public interest, and the release of “Tweaker” proves that the Ball family is making waves in various fields beyond sports. As LiAngelo continues to break into the music scene, Lonzo’s support is invaluable in helping his brother take the next step.
Looking Ahead for LiAngelo Ball
With “Tweaker” already going viral, LiAngelo Ball has proven that he has more to offer than just basketball. His music career is gaining momentum, and with Lonzo by his side, fans can expect even more from the Ball brothers in 2025. Whether they’re on the court or in the studio, this family is determined to make their mark on the world.
