Watch: Shaq talks rap career, pranking Barkley while eating spicy wings

First We Feast

Shaquille O'Neal was feeling the heat on the latest episode of First We Feast's "Hot Ones."

The NBA legend sat down with host Sean Evans to discuss everything from how he landed a rap record deal to his best prank on "Inside the NBA" co-host Charles Barkley and his old television series "Shaq Vs.," which saw him compete against other athletes in their sports.

"I sit home and I watch TV and I say, 'I could be like you. I could interview people' ... so I was like, 'Okay if you give me an advantage, I think I could beat most of these great athletes,'" Shaq said of the concept behind the series. "And crazy, the only guy I beat was Charles Barkley - in golf."

O'Neal tried not to make a face while eating progressively spicier chicken wings, but just like his "One Chip Challenge," he didn't fare so well.
