Boxing inspired hip-hop culture through its themes of struggle, resilience, and triumph. Legends like Muhammad Ali became symbols of confidence and self-expression, echoed in rap lyrics by artists like Nas and Jay-Z. Personally, I love how boxing’s grit and glory mirror hip-hop’s journey, connecting two powerful forces in US culture.
