"First father/son duo to take the stage" — Shaquille O'Neal gloats after performing with Myles O'Neal at Tomorrowland
The most dominant center in the history of the NBA is taking his talents to the turntables, as Shaquille O'Neal continues to wow fans with his skills as a professional DJ.
O'Neal averaged 23.7 points, 10.9 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game in his 19-year NBA career, winning four NBA championships and one MVP, and making 15 All-Star teams and 14 All-NBA teams.
These days, O'Neal remains active in basketball as an analyst on Inside the NBA on TNT and uses his retirement to explore other avenues — one being a DJ under the "DJ Diesel" title.
In a video posted on his Instagram, Shaq and his son Myles performed onstage at the Tomorrowland Rave Cave.
"history was made in the rave cave at @tomorrowland the first father / son duo to ever take the stage. love you," O'Neal captioned his post.
O'Neal began performing under the DJ Diesel moniker in 2014, but he has an extensive career in the music industry dating back to the early 2000s. He released four albums during his NBA career, with his first (Shaq Diesel) earning a platinum certification by the RIAA for selling over 1 million copies.
His followup album, Shaq Fu: Da Return was also a commercial success, earning a gold RIAA certification for selling over 500,000 copies.
TNT matches offer to keep Inside the NBA running; Shaquille O'Neal, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley and Ernie Smith eying return
Over the last few weeks, Shaquille O'Neal and his Inside the NBA cohosts Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Ernie Johnson have seen their show put in jeopardy, with the NBA eyeing other broadcasting companies to partner with.
TNT matched an offer to retain the NBA broadcasting rights to hold on to a 35-year partnership with the NBA. TNT failed to reach a new deal during the negotiating period but retained the right to match any offer from other broadcasting companies.
The bidding puts Inside the NBA in jeopardy, leaving fans up in arms over the possibility of the show's end.
The lineup of Johnson, Smith, Barkley and O'Neal has been around since 2011 when O'Neal joined the show.
