Yes, you read that headline correct. Former Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown is set to return to Pittsburgh on May 20th. But this time it's going to be as a rapper? Yes, as crazy as that sounds, it's true.
After flaming out in Tampa Bay last season, the former Steeler has turned his attention to rapping. And it isn't because he can't play football anymore because he clearly was still playing at a high-level last season until drama interrupted his season. Famously Brown quit in the middle of the third quarter for the Bucs' during a game against the Jets. He tore off his shoulder pads and sprinted across the back of the endzone to the excitement of the Jets fans.

Brown is going to be performing at Enclave on East Carson St on May 20. You can purchase tickets right now if you'd like to go see Brown.
Brown recently told TMZ that on his next album he's going to feature athletes. Maybe he can team back up with Le'Veon Bell for a new hit.
“We want to give every athlete a chance to be creative,” Brown said, noting that his next album will solely feature athletes and will be in stark contrast to Paradigm, which boasted a star-studded list of rap and R&B acts. “We just want to give premier athletes the opportunity to express themselves, be themselves. I know a lot of players that do it on their own that may not put it out.”
