Notorious Cavs Rap Song and Video Illustrates New Cleveland Mentality

When I was first sent the link to the Notorious Cavs rap song on Monday, I felt the way Turtle had to feel in that Entourage episode where he found the demo CD Saigon left in E’s Maserati. I knew a hit when I heard one. What else do you call a song that drops lyrical gems like “we got more James than Worthy” and has a chorus that rings out, “you better run and tell the Celtics, tell the Celtics“.

But the Notorious Cavs song, set to the tune of the Notorious B.I.G. and Bone Thugs and Harmony callabo-classic Notorious Thugs, is more than just a catchy tune. While the lyrical content is deep, the delivery is on point, and the video coincides verbatim with the words. This song is something bigger. While it is certainly hilarious in addition to all those aforementioned things, this song is also inspiring a movement amongst Cleveland fans. No more loser mentality. “Even on the road we are getting standing ovations“.

Take a listen and watch the Notorious Cavs video for yourself:

With this group, these Notorious Cavs, its going to be different this time, and this song speaks to that.

That’s why I like Mo Williams jumping in and saying he does think the Cavaliers are going to win it all. Its about time we get our swagger back around here, and nothing helps a city’s swagger more than a rap song about their pro basketball team…sorta.

Its about time we say yeah, we are going for the whole thing, and the rappers that brought you the Notorious Cavs, did just that. Great work fellas.
