Steph Curry is known for his great legacy of success on the courts and is the leading 3-point shooter in league history; but he is also recognized by his nickname of the ‘Chef’ Curry.
The real reason behind Stephen Curry’s nickname ‘Chef’
The origin of this iconic nickname dates from a verse of the song by the famous rapper Drakewho is a great fan of basketball and is a follower of the toronto raptors (city where the singer was born).
In his song that has the title “0 to 100 / The Catch Up”he canadian rapper makes a kitchen metaphor in relation to Steph.
In the hip-hop theme snippet, Drake sings the following:
- “I was Steph Curry with the shot
- Been cookin’ with the sauce, chef, curry with the pot, boy
- 360 with the wrist, boy…”
The song took on special relevance and earned the nickname ‘Chef’ Steph Curry and is widely accepted by the Golden State Warriors player.
