Saweetie is always down to give a pep talk to her alma mater. The Grammy-nominated rapper went by the University of Southern California to give some inspiring words to the women's basketball team.
“Let's really focus on our recovery,” USC's Coach Lindsay Gottlieb began before introducing the rapper. “Saweetie is way cooler than me and whatever she has to say as a USC alum and a women's basketball big-time supporter, I'll just let her say what she needs to say.”
“Thank you for that introduction. I don't know what else to say because you are already winners, you're already doing that,” the “Best Friend” rapper began before her encouraging speech. “There's a reason why you are here today. They recruited you. You're here and you're ballin.”
Saweetie told the young athletes what they should look forward to most as they close out their season.
“If I could give you some game, it would be to cherish the relationships that you have with one another because after the time clock goes out and after you guys graduate these relationships will stick with you for the rest of your life,” she said.
