Wale drops Melo Trimble’s name in new song ‘Groundhog Day’

Rapper and D.C. native Wale dropped Maryland guard Melo Trimble’s name in his latest song “Groundhog Day.”

My therapist terrible, I’m a Terrapin mellow trembling.

The song was made in response to J. Cole’s “False Prophets,” and a play on Trimble’s last name fit the mood of this one.

“I heard about it on Twitter,” Trimble said after Saturday’s win against Oklahoma State. “And of course a lot of people kept mentioning it to me, and of course I listened to it over and over again.”

The Terrapins’ junior star didn’t listen to it during warmups, but had a plan in mind shortly after he hit the game-winning free throws to squeeze out a 71-70 thriller.

“After this game, hopefully I’ll find a good picture and I’ll post it and I’ll put the lines up.”

The Terps have found themselves quite a bit of fame in 2016, of course taking the country by storm with Jared Nickens and Jaylen Brantley’s “Running Man Challenge” in the spring.

Trimble is averaging a career-best 19 points through nine games and has been the team’s go-to on the way to six wins by six points or less this season.
