Torontonians can party with basketball star Shaquille O’ Neal next month.

The former basketball player will be spinning discs at Rebel on Sept. 29 under his stage name DJ Diesel. 

While O’Neal won “Rookie of the Year” in 1993 while playing for the Orlando Magic, he also dropped his first hip-hop album, Shaq Diesel, that same year.

O’Neal seems to be a fan of Toronto, considering last year he blessed the stage during TIFF for the RBC Music Night. 

He also performed for the first time in the city at Cabana Pool bar back in 2018.
