The OG GOAT - In the world of hip-hop where stamina, victory, and grit are forms of inspiration there was no bigger inspiration than Muhammad Ali. The braggadocio tendencies imprinted in hip-hop’s DNA can be traced to the physically fit, yet, silver tongued Ali – who was even known to read poems at press conferences proclaiming his prowess. Sure, Ali inspired by knocking his opponents out, but his words and outspokenness trickled into hip-hop in many memorable ways. Here are our favorite GOAT references on wax. RIP, Muhammad Ali. – Jon Reyes(Photo: Stanley Weston/Getty Images)
