Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy will not miss his third straight game by choice. The NFL put him on its exempt list last month while they were dealing with a swirl of controversy created when TMZ released the second Ray Rice video.
So while Hardy is making nearly $800,000 a week to be in limbo, he’s free to do whatever he wants. And that includes working on his aspiring rap career.
Ja Alan, a Memphis-based rapper, on Thursday posted a portion of a video shoot in Charlotte. In the snippet, Hardy, aka Mac Carl Jr., name drops NBA stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade.
Another possibly troublesome lyric is unclear. It sounds like Hardy may have said, “crack a b—–,” which would not be the best choice of words considering his current legal situation. But Hardy may have said, “Kraken b—–,” which would be a reference to the character he claims he turns into on the field.
