Shaq also performed at the annual Electric Castle Music Festival this year, which was held near Banffy Castle. He has also performed in the Lollapalooza concerts and more. He has collaborated with big artists as well as up-and-coming stars in the music scene. Just recently, he collaborated with Chicago-based rapper Gawne.

The two worked together to release the track,  “CHAOS.” While the song is loosely based on the artist’s journey to success, it is enhanced by O’Neal’s prowess. Recently, a music video for the track was released by the duo. Together with the rising stars in the music world, the Big Aristotle continues to move his way up. Have you seen the posts?
