Music on the Nike Comercial - The Lebrons

**Adam Barkley** · #1 10-30-2006, 09:19 AM

In the newest Lebron comercial there is a instrumental with a R&B type of feel to it playing. I've heard the song before, but I can't place it.

What is it?

i love the commercials (big cavs fan), and i love the jams.

i think its Kool & the Gang.

Yes, the commercial I saw (with the diving board scene) uses "Summer Madness" from Kool & the Gang. If you haven't heard the original, you've probably heard it sampled in "Summertime" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh prince.

Great track!

Thank you... I was wondering the answer to this question, myself.

Summer Madness is one of my top 5 bass tones. Good call. Got me back into listening to Kool and the Gang
