Oh god. Lmao.

This was this past weekend at a NYC nightclub.

EDIT: Apparently, Shaq says it was all in good fun...no surprise there.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3457917

Reached by ESPN's Stephen A. Smith on Monday, O'Neal issued the following statement: "I was freestyling. That's all. It was all done in fun. Nothing serious whatsoever. That is what MC's do. They freestyle when called upon. I'm totally cool with Kobe. No issue at all. And by the way, don't forget, six albums, two platinum, two gold. Anybody who knows me knows I'm a funny freestyler. Check the NBA DVD when I was rapping about Vlade Divac during my first championship run. Please tell everybody don't make something out of nothing."

"Everyone that knows Shaq knows two things about me: One, that I'm a rapper, and two, that I'm a comedian. When I played with Kobe, me, him, Brian Shaw, J.R. Rider, we had freestyle sessions all the time. ... all in fun and we said crazier stuff than that. If I hurt anyone's feelings, I apologize."

[shadowgrin]

I don't know what part I should be sad about.

Shaq pretending to bury the hatchet and be ok with Kobe after reconciling with him on Martin Luther King day? some seasons ago or hearing Shaq rap.

Maybe it's the divorce alimony payments getting through Shaq and doing the talking.

[Andrew]

Neither. I think it's this part:

six albums, two platinum, two gold

As far as Shaq just kidding around, that may be so but as they say, many a truth is told in jest.

[Its_asdf]

Everyone that knows Shaq knows two things about me: One, that I'm a rapper, and two, that I'm a comedian."

He seems to have forgotten that he plays basketball for a living. Oh well, I would too if I just loaf around half the time being a major financial black hole to my team.

[[Q]]

this made it to sportscenter tonight. it also made my day.

hilarious.

[Ckay]

Shaqkira aka Shaq is a joke and thats final

[Laxation]

Shaqkira aka Shaq

youre an idiot.

[Dramacydal]

Classic.


That just made my shitty day a good one. Absolutely hilarious.

[diddy]

shaq's getting stupidier and stupidier every day! there no even 1% respect to him anymore! he's a rad - big FAT rat! th first stupid thing - that shaq did - was his reply to miami heat when he was traded to PHX, and ow this! he should retire!

[Erchamion]

Shaqkira

LOL

I don't like Kobe but i hope that Shaqkira retires soon because that bitch is so unprofessional.

[joejam999]

So how can he get away with saying. "White boys trying to be more N***** than me!"

If a white guy says something like that it is all over the place.

Then when he says "Kobe couldn't do it without me"

Let's not forget about 2004 Shaq.

[Dramacydal]

^Kobe screwed them in the 2004 finals wanting to be their #1 option being all egotistical.

[Dro]

Uh, yeah, obviously, becase see...white people aren't allowed to say the N-word.

Look...Shaq's not a good rapper. I think this is just a case of him reaching for things to rhyme about, and when he ran out of material, he pulled out the classic Kobe line. God damn, what a classic line. I'm going to try to get him to write that line on an Orange Suns #32 jersey this season at a game, which I will then proceed to frame and hang on my wall.

They're going to be playing "Kobe, tell me how my ass taste" at U.S. Airways Center when the Lakers come to town. I can't wait.

[Sauru]

i dont think the kobe comments is the worst part of it, it shit like the white boy comment, the ewing comment, the jabbar comment. i believe he meant it was all in good fun minus the kobe part but still standing in new york talking shit about ewing not winning a ring is pretty bad imo

Shaquille O'Neal will lose his special deputy's badge in Maricopa County because of language he used in a rap video that mocks former teammate Kobe Bryant.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the Phoenix Suns center's use of a racially derogatory word and other foul language left him no choice. Arpaio made Shaq a special deputy in January and promoted him to colonel of his largely ceremonial posse earlier this month.

"I want his two badges back," Arpaio told The Associated Press on Tuesday. "Because if any one of my deputies did something like this, they're fired. I don't condone this type of racial conduct."

That Sheriff is awesome. He has been rounding up illegals left and right and sending them back south.

I like shaq ..one of my fav all-time celebs but he's one bitter mother fucker. Yea kobe is a bitch snitch....but he didn't force you to do what you did...it's your fault your marriage ended. Also, he already proved that he will go down as the more accomplished legend by winning the ring with wade...so why continue talking shit? He musta known that someone might be recording it...cause hey...ding dong..i'm a celeb!

In either case he got caught with his foot in his mouth and instead of manning up...he turns with his tail between his legs. So much for being a cop after he retires from the league....like that was gonna happen anyway. Great freestyling by the way

[cyanide]

Uh, yeah, obviously, becase see...white people aren't allowed to say the N-word.

Uh, nobody should say the n-word, especially black people. All they do is promote racism and say it's ok to use it. That's why you hear the n-word all the time, regardless of colour.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating the use of the word by anybody of any color. I was just responding to the statement that if a white person said the word it would be all over the place. I agree, it shouldn't be said, and Shaq was especially wrong for repeating it multiple times in that nightclub.

[benji]

Let's not forget about 2004 Shaq.

Just saying...

Uh, nobody should say the n-word, especially black people. All they do is promote racism and say it's ok to use it.

I know you don't have it up there, and that it's apparently an "American concept" but still...freedom of speech and all. What's wrong with blacks trying to "take back" nigger? As many say they are trying to do.

So much for being a cop after he retires from the league....

Eh? A stupid sheriff revoked his entirely ceremonial badge. It was like an honorary degree, meaningless. If this is what stops Shaq from being able to become a cop if he wants to, that would be incredibly stupid.

Cops can't use "derogatory words" and "foul language"? Don't let Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio watch The Wire, or let alone talk to actual police.

[BIG GREEN]

I was being sarcastic about the cop thing "nigger".

[Martti.]

Just love it.

[joejam999]

What I was saying about 2004 is Kobe couldn't do it with Shaq.

[MadNice]

Shaq gotta retire cause the more older he gets, the more of a bitch he becomes.

[Sauru]

yeah he should cause as we all know the only way to stop the hands of time is to retire
