Dave East has done more than release fire tracks like “Momma Workin’” and “Tell Your Friends.” The 27-year-old has a history of shooting hoops in college as well as on the courts in his old stomping grounds; Upper Eastside of Manhattan.

WeMadeItNYC follows East for their second episode of Field Trip, which goes down on the courts.

Watch the video and learn why he transitioned from the court to the booth.
