*French NBA star Tony Parker is hoping his budding rap career reaches the same heights as his day job as a point guard for the two-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs.
The 24-year-old athlete, the fiancé of “Desperate Housewives” star Eva Longoria, has just released his self-titled, debut rap album with producer Polygrafic of Sound Scientists.
The first single, “Balance-toi,” is an upbeat, dance track with such lyrics as: "What, you want to dance? No, it's not worth it. Me, I'll stay on the sofa enjoying the vibe by raising my arms."
