Rapper Flavor Flav Gives National Anthem Performance To Remember At Bucks Game

Rapper Flavor Flav may be public enemy no. 1 after delivering his rendition of the national anthem at the Milwaukee Bucks home game on Sunday. Nothing treasonous ... it just wasn't one of Flav's finest performances.

The 64-year-old rap legend kicked off the homestand against the Atlanta Hawks with a performance of the anthem that made fellow tone-deaf singers proud.

Flava Flav, to his credit, injected the scene with his signature flair. Sideways cap on; custom Bucks jersey worn; big clock on the neck; and sunglasses on in a dimly lit arena.

To Flav, the rendition probably sounded soulful. But to the rest of us, the singing was flatter than a year-old can of Coke.

And listen, it's not a crime to call this performance "bad." Only the honest truth, ya dig?

WATCH:

While most of us respect the act of singing the anthem, no matter the performance, Flav's singing was in desperate need of some auto-tuning.

Whoever approved this opening act may be in line for a strongly worded email Monday morning. Was the local church choir unavailable? Surely they could've delivered a more uplifting performance than Flav's.

In the long history of national anthem performances, Flavor Flav's act landed closer to Fergie's 2018 NBA All-Star performance.

Milwaukee looks to give fans a stronger performance on the court, welcoming the winless (0-2) Hawks in the second game of the Damian Lillard era in Brew City.
