Over the last month, rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. This last week, he even got into an argument on social media with Shaquille O’Neal about their net worth. After that, Shaq may have incited another internet riot with Ye after this incident.

Rapper Kanye West was a billionaire and one of the richest men in America a few months ago. However, he has been making several allegedly anti-semitic comments recently, which have got him in trouble. Due to this, several companies from around the world have cut ties with him. And he has lost hundreds of millions of dollars and according to some reports, he may not be a billionaire anymore.

Meanwhile, Shaq seemed to not be done with it. In fact, he proceeded to take another dig at West. The four-time NBA champion was recently on his Big Podcast and he was casually messing around with his co-hosts. Subsequently, Shaq announced that he has a celebrity in the building and he called one of his crew members and referred to him as Eminem. The similarity between the two was indeed pretty close. After that, he showed another crew member and said he was Kenny Rogers.
