The reason for Shaquille O’Neal’s decision to share the altered photo of himself and Drake at the pool has been revealed.

O’Neal recently apologized on “The BIG Podcast with Shaq,” and he acknowledged the mistake. The other day, I shared an image. I should have asked, “Who did this?” but instead I didn’t. I think Drake would really enjoy hearing this: Drake is hilarious. That they did it was humorous to me. People were saying things like, “Shaq’s trolling.” Someone else photoshopped it; I am not trolling.

The comment section, unsurprisingly, went crаzy. “No way he can justify something like that,” one fan said. “Thankfully, he expressed regret. It was оffensive to me. This is Drake addressing you at this very moment. In our world, any attention is good attention, even though I know many of you think I lost the rap wаr. I meаn, come on, you’re talking about me on social media at the moment,” another user joked. “When Drake leaves, you’ll see how he carries the industry with him…” Another commenter said that Bro provided three of the most memorable rap clashes of the past fifteen years.

Drake has taken a lot of heat recently, following Kendrick Lamar’s “The Pop Out— Ken and Friends” performance. On Sunday, June 23, the Toronto rapper Shaq got in on the action by posting a manipulated photo of himself on a yacht wearing a black bikini.

O’Neal used the instrumental version of “BBL Drizzy” by Metro Boomin as a backdrop for his Instagram Story. The NBA great made his first public appearance in the spat between Drake and Lamar. “Yeah, I’m f**king glowing up/ Shaq posting up on n**gas that I used to have posters of,” the self-proclaimed 6 God said on 2015’s “Used 2” about the NBA great.

Bossip reports that the picture that O’Neal uploaded was taken on a vacation to Spain in 2019 and featured model Danielle Dilworth, who was 27 years old at the time. Nothing was said about the specifics of their relationship. It was alleged by the site that he was in Europe for a slew of DJ Diesel concerts, including a show at the Tomorrowland Festival in Belgium.
