Earlier this week DMV Rapper Wale was named the Washington Wizards’ Creative Liaison via a press release on the NBA.com website.

The release reads:

Wale’s songs Ambition and The Work will be included in the team’s opening video throughout the season, and he will perform live on opening night as part of player pregame introductions. He will also partner with the Monumental Sports & Entertainment Foundation to participate and promote a charitable project in partnership with the Wizards.

Wale is a die-hard fan and is quoted in the release stating:

“I’m excited to start building as the creative liaison for the Washington Wizards,” said Wale. “As a D.C. native and lifelong Wizards fan, this is truly an exciting and organic relationship for me. We’ve got some exciting projects up our sleeve that will roll out throughout the season so be on the lookout.”
