Kevin Durant Links Up With Hit-Boy

Kevin Durant is currently enjoying the NBA offseason. Despite being traded to the Phoenix Suns mid-season as part of an all-in plan from new Suns owner Mat Ishiba, the Suns were eliminated in the second round of the playoffs. While Durant's position on the team is locked in, the organization as a whole has a lot of questions that need answering. Namely - what do they do about Chris Paul and how do they achieve that final step towards an NBA Championship?




Meanwhile, iconic music producer HitBoy is coming off a studio album release, Surf or Drown, from March of this year. He has also produced a number of singles this year, collaborating with the likes of Offset, Don Tolliver, and The Alchemist. Furthermore, a video has emerged of him running into Durant. While it could have been just a chance meeting on the street, it could have been a planned link up.

In the clip, reshared by 2cool2bl0g, Hit-Boy is seen riding up to Durant on a scooter. He hops off and greets Durant, who also greets Hit-Boy's entourage. Both men are dressed casually and each sports a bucket hat. It's unclear where the film was taken and what the two of them say to each other. However, Hit-Boy appears to say "it's my birthday", which makes sense given that the rapper and producer turned 35 on May 21.

Online commentators took the video positively. "Bro got a scooter holder " one person wrote.

"Looking forward to hearing what beats they cook up together," wrote another, suggesting that Durant could potentially be Hit-Boy's next collaboration. A number of people also poked some gentle fun at the bright pink bag that Durant can be seen holding in the video. Do you think this was just a social link? Or do you think that it was more about business? Let us know in the comments. Follow all the latest sports and music news here at HotNewHipHop.
