“He’s done it by himself. I’m proud of him.” Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t forego a chance to heap praise on his eldest. The 27-year-old has come a long way since shifting from fashion to realize he wants to pursue a career in music. Helping with the resources to kickstart, Shaq has been a part of the journey throughout. And while Myles has carved a path himself, like the Big Diesel often notes, he hasn’t been void of his father’s advice and glare. Making it evident, Shaq was there to nudge him again after a huge announcement.

“Clock in ⏰” That’s what the Lakers legend asked of his son. Because Shaq’s Fun House is back for the 7th year, once again during the Super Bowl weekend. “🏈🏆 BACK AT IT AGAIN!!!! @shaqsfunhouse NOLA 2025!! FEB 7th!! WE COMING CRAZY THIS YEAR AS ALWAYS!!!! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YALL!” Myles announced.

The event, dubbed “Part Circus, Part Carnival, Part Festival” promises an unforgettable experience. The music lineup apart from Myles and Shaquille O’Neal is already a hit. John Summit, Ludacris, and DJ IRIE further make the list with possibilities of more additions.

No wonder Myles was excited. He shared the post on his stories with, “🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳” and “WE BACK AT IT AGAIN!!” And got love from Shaq once again.

Yes, after advising as a father, the 4x NBA Champion turned to DJ Diesel to comment on the post. “Here we go.” The festival will have its largest edition yet with 5,000+ fans alongside a full-scale interactive carnival. The O’Neal Boyz might be suiting up for the nth time after a successful run this year, beginning with Shaq’s ‘Summer of Bass’ tour, that spanned across 5 months.

The two made history by becoming the first father-son duo to play at Tomorrowland’s iconic Rave Cave in July. Myles has since partnered with his father to make the O’Neal Boyz official with an Instagram page, made it to Lollapalooza, went on his own tour — Flashlight, and announced the release of his new single. Shaq has every reason to be proud of his eldest.

DJing was not the first choice for Myles O’Neal

“I was still in college, so I did not know at some point I was going to be in front of the camera.” In the beginning, he taught about becoming a model but has been transcendent successfully in the EDM world. his first single Superficial, featuring Hadar Adora has over 400k+ streams on Spotify. Even though Shaquille O’Neal has been part of the journey, he wants no credit for it.

“ I can’t tell him what to do. You know, he just bought his own Tesla, top-of-the-line Tesla, drives by itself. Did it on his own. No help from daddy. So I ain’t got no complaints, brother,” he reveals. Moreover, Shaquille O’Neal appreciated his eldest son for not using his influence the wrong way and also for staying out of trouble.

The O’Neal Boyz continue their journey now with Shaq’s Fun House’s debut in Louisiana. It is one of Shaq’s prouder events with not just music, but food, rides, circus performers, and more. The Big Diesel wanted this to be an experience out of the ordinary corporate parties and he has got it just right. Having Myles there, seven years in, Shaq is sure in fetch of a perfect outcome.
