On Friday, Grammy-Award winning artist Jelly Roll visited the Kentucky<\/a><\/strong> men\u2019s basketball team before rocking out in Rupp Arena later that night. Little did Jelly Roll know, he was in the presence of a fellow musical talent.<\/p>\n

Kentucky guard Lamont Butler<\/a><\/strong>, whose artist name is HBMont, didn\u2019t miss his opportunity to introduce Jelly Roll to some of his work. After practice, Butler played his single, \u201cWildcats,\u201d for Jelly Roll, who bobbed his head along with the catchy rhythm.<\/p>\n

Big Blue Nation should be familiar with the tune. Butler rapped the song during his walkout at Big Blue Madness in October while his teammates hyped him up from the hardwood.<\/p>\n

Butler certainly gives them plenty to smile about in the song, with almost every bar referencing a player on the team or anecdote about his new life in Lexington, Kentucky. It seems the Bluegrass State is treating Butler well thus far.<\/p>\n

In Kentucky\u2019s season-opening win over Wright State<\/a><\/strong>, Butler tallied 14 points, five rebounds and five assists while shooting 6-12 from the field. After the game, Wildcats head coach Mark Pope<\/a><\/strong> raved about his fifth-year senior\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cLamont, of course, is just a menace out there all the time,\u201d Pope said. \u201cHe\u2019s always such a threat. It\u2019s almost like, I\u2019ve been the opposing coach going against Lamont Butler and every time you bounce the ball as a coach you kind of hold your breath and say \u2014 \u2018He didn\u2019t take the ball that time. That\u2019s a win, right?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you can be like, \u2018Hey Lamont, you just handle all of these ball screens and let me figure out the rest of the game,\u2019 it\u2019s pretty great. It\u2019s a real great gift and that\u2019s going to be important going forward because I\u2019m not that smart of a coach.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Pope was humble, as usual, after the game, Butler made a bold claim about the Wildcats.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like we\u2019re a little underrated,\u201d Butler\u00a0told KSR. \u201cWe have a lot of good players, but a lot of us come from \u2014 we have some mid-major guys, some guys who haven\u2019t maybe been on the top radar. I think what\u2019s going to surprise people is our connectivity and the pace that we play.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cCoach Pope\u2019s offense is amazing and I think that defensively, we\u2019re underrated, too. We have a lot of great defensive players and a lot of length, so I think it\u2019s going to be tougher for people to beat us. We just have to go out there and show them, that\u2019s all it is.\u201d<\/p>\n
