Phoenix Suns power forward Kevin Durant seems to be expanding his career portfolio after reports claimed he's releasing a rap song with Stalley soon.

A video recently obtained by TMZ showed the NBA star flaunting his rap skills while vibing and spitting bars with rapper Stalley. The two appeared to be performing a new rap song together while watching basketball highlights on television.

After the Ohio-born rapper opened the track with his lines, Durant jumped in with lyrics that seemed to be a eulogy to his late grandmother, Barbara Davis.

"Ayo, look, rest in peace to Barbara Davis / We hit another layup / When she speak[s] to me, it's like she's saying prayers," Durant rapped in the video. "I feel like Randy Moss when he was on the Raiders / Man, they love the haters."

TMZ speculated that KD and Stalley could be filming a music video for the track. Unfortunately, other details about the collaboration, including its release date, are still unconfirmed.

However, netizens already praised the NBA star's bars and flow based on the snippet.

"How is KD better than Drake and Ye in 2024?" tweeted one netizen.

"KD low-key has bars!" Complex Sports' official X account commented.

"[He is a] better rapper than Dame," stated a third user.

"A KD x Stalley song would've sent 11th-grade me to the moon," quipped someone else.

Another netizen wrote, "Okay now. You all got the rest of it? KD spittin.' Is there a longer version somewhere?"

Amid the discussion over the new collab, a netizen brought up a rap song Tsu Surf dropped with Durant several years ago.

Another quickly pointed out that real fans should have known that Durant "could rap from the Surf feature."

Durant was featured in Tsu Surf's song "Want It," released in May 2014.

A part of KD's verse in the track read, "A quiet youngin' man, I never lived the fast life / But seen some of my homies carry steel to get there, cash right / Matter fact I got a call, I lost a homie last night..."

"Want It" was among the 10 tracks on the battle rapper's 2014 mixtape "A New Mood."
