The O’Neal admiration for Chris Brown is so strong that Shaunie Henderson has demanded an immediate response. Yep, Shaquille O’Neal’s love for the $50 million-rich singer has his sons grooving just like him! Now, although Shareef and Shaqir O’Neal lean more toward their dad’s athletic legacy, they still share his love for music. And his playful spirit. A recent Instagram video shared by Shaunie Henderson proves just that.

“@chrisbrownofficial needs to respond immediately @shaqironeall @shareefoneal,” Shaunie captioned the video, adding a touch of humor with a string of laughing emojis. In the clip, Shareef and Shaqir break out some dance moves to Chris Brown’s 2007 classic, Wall to Wall. The brothers’ groove was just spot-on.

If you’ve ever seen Shaquille O’Neal dance, you’ll know exactly where they get it from. A fan hit the nail on the head, commenting, “He his daddy son fr.”

The aforementioned comment was seemingly a reference to when Shaq went viral for dancing to Chris Brown’s Under the Influence. “My real girlfriend knows I’m a big black exotic dancer,” he wrote in the caption, poking fun at rumors swirling around him dating a girl in a viral image. While the post had its context, the highlight was undeniably Shaq’s smooth moves.

But Shaqir’s connection to Brown’s music doesn’t stop there. Let’s rewind to 2020 when the “O’Neal Boys Kitchen Concert” became a quarantine sensation. In one of the instances, Shareef transformed into Shareefa Flocka Flame with a hilarious lip-sync performance of Waka Flocka Flame’s Hard in da Paint. Then Shaqir took the stage as Shaquir Brown, going all out with Chris Brown’s Take You Down.

The best part? Brown himself noticed! The 35-year-old singer reposted Shaqir’s performance, complete with laughing emojis in the caption. It was not long after that when Shaquille O’Neal gave a Chris Brown take that many might not agree with.

Shaquille O’Neal agreed Chris Brown is more talented than Michael Jackson

Brown’s undeniable talent has often sparked comparisons to the legendary Michael Jackson. It’s a debate that never seems to fade, and Shaquille O’Neal once found himself in the middle of it during an episode of The Big Podcast.

The conversation was sparked by Joe Budden’s bold statement on The Joe Budden Podcast. He had stated Brown to be way more talented than Michael Jackson. “Like not even close. Why would you disagree with that? Because he’s Mike and he’s the best to ever do it? Yeah, but that don’t change that,” Budden said.

Surprisingly, Shaq agreed with the 44-year-old’s opinion of Brown on his The Big Podcast. He explained his reason to be the “advancement of time.” A controversial take for many fans, yes. But that’s just how much Shaquille O’Neal admires Brown. It must be wholesome for him to see his boys grooving to the tunes of one of his favorite artists.
