Flavor Flav joins ranks of all-time viral national anthem performances after rendition at Bucks game

The Milwaukee Bucks said during the offseason that the team was seeking performers for the national anthem, but many didn't think the second performer of the new season would be none other than Flavor Flav.

That's right, member of the legendary rap group Public Enemy, and man who famously rapped "Fight the Power" sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Sunday night's Bucks game at Fiserv Forum.

The rendition certainly caught the attention of many on social media.

Many weren't very fond of the performance but others compared Flav's performance to other renditions from the past that went viral.

Such as U.S. Olympian Carl Lewis' rendition in 1993 in New Jersey. The nine-time Olympic gold medalist's rendition was considered so poor that ESPN hosts famously struggled to make it through the segment.

There is also Fergie at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game. That performance went viral as NBA superstars on camera were unable to hold in their laughter.

Flavor Flav did take to X, formerly known as Twitter, following the performance. He said the anthem was a "long time bucket list item" and he had "fun" during his performance.

"I can't live my life worried about what people might say about me," he added. "I won't let that stop me from trying new things and doing things I wanna do. Some people might not like that. But a sure failure is you stop trying."

You never know, maybe someone told Marvin Gaye he'd never be a singer before he blew the roof off the building at the 1983 NBA All-Star Game.
