Shortly after leaving the field mid-game and being released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, wide-receiver Antonio Brown has dropped a rap song. Although the Bucs ended up beating the New York Jets, an unspecified altercation left Brown frustrated, leading to him taking off his gear and leaving the field as his team was trailing 24-10. Titled “Pit Not the Palace,” the surprise track from Antonio Brown doesn’t touch on the incident that led to him being released. But the track does outline the luxurious life he lived thanks to his $3.1 million USD yearly salary with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It is interesting to note that back in 2020, Brown released a 15-track album titled Himmothy and has been releasing music sporadically since 2019. Listen to Antonio Brown’s new track “Pit Not the Palace” ab...
