Rolling Loud is dubbed as the "world's largest hip-hop festival," and it will be held from March 15 to 16 at Holywood Park, Inglewood, California.

LiAngelo released "Tweaker" earlier this month during a live stream with social media personality N3on. The full song was later uploaded to the YouTube channel WorldstarHipHop, where it has garnered more than 4.2 million views as of this writing.

LiAngelo Ball still has that NBA dream

While LiAngelo Ball is riding the viral success of his debut single, he has reiterated his desire to follow in the footsteps of his older brothers, both NBA guards.

"I love to go to the NBA and play with my brothers," LiAngelo said on N3on's YouTube live-stream on Dec. 28. "It ain't gonna hurt. 'I'm not asking for a billion."

LiAngelo acknowledged the work he still needs to do to achieve his dream and play alongside Lonzo and LaMelo.

"This is what I think how my path gotta go. I've gotta go to the G League, get a little film ... And then my brothers gonna have to pull a little weight, that’s just in all honesty,” he added.

The 6-foot-5 LiAngelo has yet to appear in a regular-season NBA game. He went undrafted in the 2018 NBA draft but entered the 2021 G League Draft, where he was selected 14th overall by the Greensboro Swarm, the Charlotte Hornets’ affiliate.

In two seasons with Greensboro, Ball appeared in 19 games, averaging 7.2 points and 1.7 rebounds while shooting 49.0% (44.1% on 3-pointers).
