\n\tAt the turn of the century, it was Allen Iverson who served as the bridge between hip-hop and basketball while also boasting a massive amount of pop culture influence. Part of the influence came after he retired, when the Philadelphia 76ers icon inspired Post Malone\u2019s <\/a>breakout hit \u201cWhite Iverson\u201d in 2015. <\/p>\n

\n\tA decade later, Posty returned the favor and invited Iverson to join him on stage Saturday night (May 24) while performing a countrified version of \u201cWhite Iverson\u201d in Philly. Malone invaded Citizens Bank Park over the weekend as part of his The Big Ass Stadium Tour<\/a> with Jelly Roll, and gave the Philly faithful a fun surprise when Iverson hit the stage with Posty.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cALLEN IVERSON LADIES & GENTLEMEN!!!,\u201d Post captioned footage from the performance on Instagram, while Iverson wrote, \u201cBeing a inspiration is golden! Shout out to @postmalone and shout out to Philadelphia! Ain\u2019t nothing like Philly love!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFans agreed it was a beautiful sight to see Iverson get his flowers while he can still smell them from his second home. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cGave us some of the best years Philly has ever seen,\u201d one fan wrote. Another added, \u201cI\u2019m so glad you\u2019re getting your flowers while you\u2019re still here. The media always tried to portray you as a bad guy but we the people has and will always the love you!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOf course, it\u2019s not the first time A.I. and Post Malone<\/a> have linked up, as the superstar duo initially met back in 2017. \u201cI met the legend last night and there\u2019d be no \u2018White Iverson\u2019 without him,\u201d Malone told\u00a0Billboard\u00a0at the time. \u201cI\u2019m still tripping at how sick it was, and as A.I.\u00a0says, \u2018The culture has no boundaries.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhite Iverson\u201d arrived in 2015 and peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.<\/a> The track is now certified Diamond \u2014 giving Post eight Diamond plaques \u2014 by the RIAA.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for Iverson, The Answer spent 12 seasons with the 76ers after being drafted out of Georgetown in 1996. He led the Sixers to the NBA<\/a> Finals in 2001, the same season he won his first MVP trophy. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe Big Ass Stadium Tour remains in Pennsylvania this week with shows slated for Hershey and Pittsburgh before heading to Massachusetts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At the turn of the century, it was Allen Iverson who served as the bridge between hip-hop and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59836,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3769],"tags":[679,7,2995,808,6,678,207,3817,66],"class_list":{"0":"post-59835","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia-76ers","8":"tag-76ers","9":"tag-basketball","10":"tag-genre-hiphop","11":"tag-music-news","12":"tag-nba","13":"tag-philadelphia","14":"tag-philadelphia-76ers","15":"tag-philadelphia76ers","16":"tag-sports"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/114581164909226735","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59835","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59835"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59835\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59836"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59835"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59835"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59835"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
