AS LEBRON JAMES crept up on 50,000 points -- a scoring mark no one else in the NBA has ever achieved -- Vincent Jordan, who goes by the stage name of OkaySpade, knew it was time to get started.
The thought of creating a song to commemorate the occasion had already been swirling in Jordan's mind. He surfed YouTube for a beat before discovering one posted nearly two years ago that seemed perfect for the track he wanted to make.
Jordan listened to it twice and made up his mind.
"Finna make a LeBron James tribute [right now]," Jordan commented under the YouTube video of the beat.
