You Can Finally Stream The Notorious B.I.G. and Shaquille O’Neal’s Throwback Classic “You Can’t Stop the Reign”
On an episode of Drink Champs last year, Shaq, also the only NBA player-turned-rapper to go platinum, revealed that he asked Biggie to redo his original “Reign” verse, as the first was too explicit.
“The first verse— and I’m the only one that got it, I will never play it—he went off,” Shaq said. “And I damn near had a tear in my eye because I had to press that button. I was like, ‘Uh, Big.’ He said, ‘Yeah, yeah for the kids, for the kids. My bad, Diesel and then he did the verse you heard.'”
