As long as birds sing and fools fall in love, ballers will want to be musicians. In theory, there's nothing wrong with an athlete pursuing a music career, but more often than not, their efforts tend to end up producing albums that are, er, comical. Take a look at a few of the athletes who've dropped their pads and picked up mics to bust a flow.

Deion Sanders


In what can only be described as cheesy hip-hop mixed with new jack swing gone bad, Deion Sanders wants to let you know one thing: he's rich. Released on MC Hammer's Bust-It Records imprint, 1995's 'Prime Time' featured tracks such as 'Must Be the Money,' where Deion talks about, well, his money, 'Y U NV ME?' and '2 B Me.' (Someone loves himself waaaay too much.)
