Steve Lacy may have just given LeBron James a new theme song. During his concert at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden, New Jersey, on Thursday night, Lacy performed a version of his song "Oh Yeah?" in which the chorus is replaced by "Le Bron, Le Bron, Le Bron." The crowd recognized the reference and sang along with delight.
The LeBron version of "Oh Yeah" went viral in September after TikTok artist "dentzilla" posted his rendition online. That version has racked up 4.7 million views on TikTok and more than 666,000 likes on Instagram, helping the remix spread well beyond the original fan base.
Lacy, a Los Angeles resident, is currently touring the United States and Canada in support of his latest album, which shares the title "Oh Yeah?" The tour has given fans a chance to hear the viral twist live, and the response in Camden suggests the bit is landing with audiences.
James is preparing to make his regular-season debut with the Philadelphia 76ers on Oct. 20, when they face the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Whether the new chorus follows him to the arena remains to be seen.
