A video has been released by www.tmz.com that shows super-sized superstar Shaquille O'Neal at a NYC nightclub from the past weekend, performing a song that featured some lyrical appearances by a certain Los Angeles based ex-teammate, Kobe Bryant. During his freestyle rap, Shaq had a few choices words for former teammate (and supposed once-again buddy) Kobe Bryant.

Among the highlights of the video, Shaq repeatedly asks Kobe Bryant to, "Tell me how my a** tastes." So much for the feud being over between these two, who enjoyed great success on the court but suffered from a volatile relationship off of it. Mixed in with that lyric, Shaq tells Kobe that he, "Couldn't do without me", a clear shot to the Los Angeles Lakers' unceremonious ousting from the NBA Finals by the Boston Celtics, while Shaq gobbled up another ring by the Dwayne Wade led Miami Heat.

More choice lyrics from Shaq's rap performance include accusing Kobe Bryant of ratting him out, referencing Kobe's court appearance and legal troubles stemming from an illicit sexual encounter in Colorado several years ago. He said Kobe "ratting him out" was the reason he is now getting a divorce.

But Kobe Bryant was not the only target of Shaq's presumably alcohol fueled rap. (And by the way, how much liquor would it take to get a guy the size of Shaq drunk?) Among the other victims of Shaq's rap lyrics were:
  • Patrick Ewing - When Shaq was pondering absurd notions, one of them was, "That's like Patrick Ewing havin' more rings than me."
  • Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - In the same verse, another Shaq taunt was directed towards Kareem, saying, "Kareem saying to himself he better than me."
  • His testicles - Shaq turned a rhyme about getting a vasectomy so he can't "breed" anymore.

This was Shaq's first rap that was better than his free throw shooting.

Shaq is entertaining, if nothing else. There's always been bad blood between Shaq and Ewing. Ewing was on the downside of his career when Shaq came into his own. Ewing couldn't guard him but if you go through the numbers you'll find that Shaq did nothing to stop Ewing, either.

Freestyling -- Is that code for acting like an ass? Kobe always struck me as classless, but Shaq did him one better. Michael Jordan, we need you more than ever.

BTW- Shaq has since made a comment that people shouldn't take it seriously, it was just freestyling, he meant no harm, etc.
