take a look at this video — originally posted on Instagram with the aid of former large-leaguer and existing Cubs entrance workplace staffer Darnell McDonald — of Williamson shedding an striking freestyle to the beat of Drake's "0 to one hundred" with shoutouts to Wrigley field, Jason Heyward, Jon Lester and Dexter Fowler before a recent video game.

here are the lyrics, in case you are looking to keep up:

just wanna play, set the whatever straight, 'bout to win a a hundred video games. J-hi there 'bout to make a play, Lester get the k. We feeling fresh today, acquired the 'dub the previous day. New crew with the realm collection attitude. road to the 'chip, that's the area sequence avenue.

I'm feeling like the baddest dude, Fowler on the bases. Yeah, we winning pennant races that's a Wrigley renovation, like damn. Chi-city, what up? It's that boy J-Willy staying on the come up and that i do this day by day 'cause you already comprehend. It's that boy J-Willy, man the freestyle professional.

turns out Williamson is greater than a one-hit wonder. He released an album below his rap name Swilson on iTunes returned in February and there are extra videos of his freestyles on social media. do not get it twisted, even though. His intention continues to be extra Gold Glove than Grammys at this factor.

[Elsewhere: Some pitchers rake, but Jeff Samardzija breaks his bat]

stick with it and Williamson can be the primary participant to pitch for the Cubs and sing during the seventh inning stretch during his debut. It may not take tons to do more desirable at the latter than rapper Warren G, who totally butchered "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" final week at Wrigley.
