I\u2019m just happy he took the time to do it, and he really killed the verse so a lot of people are gonna be surprised by it.\"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jackson, an aspiring rapper, said he has recorded the album after the NBA season ended. The album is set to be released at the end of August or beginning of September.\nThe 34-year-old Jackson split last season between the Bucks and Spurs. He averaged 9.8 points per game.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
