Iverson's ‘Practice?!' rant now in ‘disco-funk' song form

Share

Forget Will Smith's "Summertime." Skylar Spence's "Practice" is the new Philly summer jam.

Okay, maybe not, but it does incorporate Allen Iverson's legendary practice rant into a fun summery jam. Here's how Stereogum describes it, "Skylar Spence aka Ryan DeRobertis fka SAINT PEPSI is among the many admirers of this speech, so when he was asked to come up with a basketball-themed song for Carpark Records’ 16th-anniversary picture disc, he turned to Iverson for inspiration. “Practice” incorporates Iverson’s famous retorts into his signature disco-funk, and the results are as fun and fizzy as summertime."

I'm hoping Spence turns Sam Hinkie's "Optionality" into the jam of next winter.
