Bronny James was spotted backstage with one of today's hottest rappers.

Bronny James is big news right now. LeBron's eldest son recently headlined the Nike Basketball Summit. Meanwhile, the basketball world is waiting to head which, if any, college James is committing to. Despite not even being out of high school, Bronny already has multiple NIL deals and will likely be a sought-after prospect in the 2024 NBA draft. Bronny James is the star of pre-college basketball right now. Furthermore, no one comes even close to the level of hype surrounding Bronny.

However, with the famous father, a social following in the millions, and big-name brand deals, it's easy to forget that Bronny is only 18. And despite looking to follow in his father's footsteps, sometimes Bronny wants to do the things that every other 18-year-old is doing. That includes going to concerts and taking in some contemporary culture. That's what led to a picture now circulating on social media

Bronny Heads Backstage At Yeat Gig

Bronny was recently spotted backstage with Yeat at a recent gig. Bronny for his part was rocking for truly iconic hot pink sweats. But the bond between the basketball player and up-and-coming rapper goes deeper than a simple backstage selfie. In recent months, Bronny has been spotted warming up to Yeat's music, signaling an affinity for the mind behind Money So Big and Get Busy. Yeat's stock has been soaring in recent months, with fans going wild at every stop of his 2 Alivë tour. While TikTok helped kickstart his popularity, he's not looking back after three album drops in three years. Perhaps it was only a matter of time before these two respective stars met.

Maybe this was a link-up between two big-name stars and nothing more. Bronny clearly enjoys Yeat's music. And on Yeat's part, are you really going to pass up a chance to meet Bronny James? Or maybe this is the start of something bigger. Could Bronny be dropping a verse on an upcoming Yeat track? In recent weeks, we've seen rappers proposing collabs with basketball stars. However, for now, the story is as deep as a young basketball star getting to meet a rapper whose music he clearly enjoys.
