Public Enemy re-imagines classic song to honour female athletes
LIVIGNO, Italy, Feb 4 (Reuters) - Hip-hop group Public Enemy enlisted Olympians to help re-imagine one of its 1990s hits as a tribute to female athletes just as the Milano Cortina Winter Games get underway.
The group changed the title and lyrics of "He Got Game," a song written for a 1998 Spike Lee movie of the same name, to "She Got Game," and released the new track on Wednesday.
Public Enemy was co-founded by Flavor Flav, a supporter of the Olympics and women's sports. He sponsored the 2024 U.S. women's Olympic water polo team and the U.S. bobsled and skeleton teams that will compete at this month's Milano Cortina Games.
"I dedicate it to all the girls and women who play hard," Flavor Flav said about the song in a post on Instagram.
