We take a look at some of hip hop's biggest sport fanatics.

Sports and hip hop often go hand in hand. Rappers not only love to make sports analogies and references as frequently as possible, but they always show allegiance to their team/sport of choice often representing the city they are from. Some artists have even started blurring the lines of music and sports, with, for example, Jay Z taking Roc Nation into sports management, and with Drake putting in work for Toronto by being the Global Ambassador for The Raptors. Other rappers remain loyal fans, but choose to watch from their courtside seats.

Take a look at our list at some of the rappers who rep their team the hardest, and find out more about their affinity for a certain team.
