Former NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal is a huge hip-hop fan. The LA Lakers legend even brought the “Shaq’s Fun House” event to Los Angeles for 2022 Super Bowl weekend. Among his guest performers were Diplo, Zedd and Lil Wayne.
Jay-Z, on the NFL’s board for music and entertainment, recently announced Lamar as the headliner for the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show. The news was greeted with mixed reviews as some expected Lil Wayne, a New Orleans native, to take that stage.
Shaquille O’Neal, in his podcast, had this to say about the issue:

“I love them both. Really love Kendrick [Lamar], really love Lil’ Wayne. It would make sense to have a lot of involvement with Lil Wayne.
“I don’t know what’s going on, a lot of blame being thrown at Jay-Z but Jay-Z is part of the committee. I don’t think he runs the committee. It’s my understanding that the city also has an influence on who they pick.”
The city of New Orleans and the NFL both had a hand in making the decision. It is reportedly the league that sends a list of performers to the host city who make the final decision.
