On his album Ambition, which includes the Grammy-nominated song Lotus Flower Bomb, Wale represents his hometown D.M.V. area (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) and even showed the Georgetown Hoyas love at their 2010 Midnight Madness rally. He continues to show love for the Hoyas by having them make it all the way to the Sweet 16 in his bracket. However, it seems the UCLA Bruins will be too much for the Hoyas as they fall before reaching the Elite Eight, according to Wale.
Wale has a Final Four of Oklahoma State-Wisconsin, Kansas-Indiana. His championship game comes down to Wisconsin and Kansas with Kansas coming out victorious in Wale's bracket.
