#1 Shaquille O'Neal
There are some names that Shaquille O'Neal goes by such as Shaq, but at the prime of his alternate career, he was known as much more. Shaq aka Shaq Fu aks Superman aka Kazaam aka Shaq Diesel was the NBA's most successful rapper. He has received gold and platinum certification for his second and debut pieces respectively.
Shaq set many records for this crossover that many basketball players have pursued. He was the first and only player to be mainstream with a record label and did not go down the indie route. His beats may be watered down, but the music is truly not that bad.
Shaq's tunes fit into what was typical of the early '90s and were very inviting to dance to. Overall his music could be classified into fun, playful and easy to like. His music fit into the personality of who he was as a person and therefore neither was quite serious. He may not have been the world's best rapper, but his general approach definitely made him a winner.
