Steph Curry definitely isn't rapping in his new music video

As part of Steph Curry's all-out promotional blitz for his new documentary, the Warriors legend released a music video with rapper Tobe Nwigwe on Wednesday.

The music video for “Lil Fish, Big Pond” starts with rap lyrics playing while a man in a boat hangs his head. A long zoom-in eventually reveals the man in the bucket hat is Curry, who starts mouthing lyrics about his career. “Daddy taught me how to flick my wrist, I’m my father’s son. … They should put the basket in the casket after I am done,” some representative lyrics go.

Curry is clearly lip-syncing, a common practice in music videos. But the video is listed as “Tobe Nwigwe ft. Stephen Curry,” and a few breathless headlines credited Curry with the technically dexterous rapping that appears in the song. “Watch Steph amazingly drop bars in viral new rap song,” one headline from NBC Sports Bay Area read. “Warriors' Stephen Curry Raps in Tobe Nwigwe’s 'Lil' Fish, Big Pond' Music Video,” read another from Bleacher Report.
