“The thing go skrra pa pa pa!!…” Alright, y’all thrill your day with this amazing song from BIG SHAQ titled “Man’s Not Hot”.
“Man’s Not Hot” is a novelty song by British comedian Michael Dapaah, released under the name Big Shaq. It samples an instrumental by GottiOnEm and Mazza, which was first used on 86’s “Lurk” and later on “Let’s Lurk” by 67 featuring Giggs. The song saw commercial success, peaking at number three on the UK Singles Chart. The song has been certified platinum in the United Kingdom by the BPI, indicating 600,000 combined sales and streams. The music video has also gained over 360 million views on YouTube.
On 10 May 2017, Dapaah uploaded a sketch to his Instagram featuring his character Roadman Shaq “freestyling” to the instrumental of “Lurk” originally used by UK drill group 86, and more popularly the 2016 song “Let’s Lurk“, by UK drill group 67 and rapper Giggs.
On 19 July 2017, Dapaah’s freestyle, slightly extended, appeared on episode 6 of the first series of his mockumentary SWIL, when he performed it in front of 67 as Roadman Shaq.
On 29 August 2017, Dapaah went on BBC Radio 1Xtra as both his characters MC Quakez and Roadman Shaq for the Charlie Sloth-hosted “Fire in the Booth” segment. He performed the freestyle, again slightly extended, and it went viral on the internet, gaining millions of views on YouTube and resulting in the creation of many internet memes. In response to the unprecedented popularity, Dapaah changed his character’s name to “Big Shaq” and converted his freestyle into a commercial single called “Man’s Not Hot“, released on Island Records. The song was released on 22 September 2017.
The song was covered by American hip hop band The Roots on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, when retired American basketball player Shaquille O’Neal appeared as a guest on 10 October 2017. On 16 October 2017, O’Neal released a diss track criticising Dapaah for calling himself “Big Shaq“.

American rapper Futuristic released his remix of the song on 13 January 2018.
Dapaah released the music video for “Man’s Not Hot” on 26 October 2017. It begins with a phone call from someone called Asznee, who is later revealed to be entertainer Chunkz. It then alternates between Dapaah rapping in Toronto and Miami, wearing his trademark jacket. The video features cameos from American rappers Waka Flocka Flame, Lil Yachty, Jim Jones, Dutch rap group Broederliefde and American producer DJ Khaled, who calls Dapaah’s character a “legend”. – Wikipedia

Some Quotable Lyrics
Yo, Big Shaq, the one and only
Man’s not hot, never hot
Skrrat (GottiOnEm), skidi-kat-kat
Boom
Two plus two is four, minus one that’s three, quick maths
Everyday man’s on the block, smoke trees
See your girl in the park, that girl is a uckers
When the ting went quack-quack-quack, you man were ducking (you man ducked)
Hold tight, Asznee (my brudda), he’s got the pumpy (big ting)
Hold tight, my man (my guy), he’s got the frisbee
I trap, trap, trap on the phone, movin’ that cornflakes
Rice Krispies, hold tight my girl Whitney (my G)
On the road doin’ ten toes, like my toes (like my toes)
You man thought I froze, I see a peng girl, then I pose (chilin’)
If she ain’t on it, I ghost, hah, look at your nose (check your nose, fam)
You donut, nose long like garden hose
I tell her man’s not hot, I tell her man’s not hot
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot” (never hot)
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
I tell her man’s not hot (never hot)
The girl told me, “Take off your jacket”
I said, “Babes, man’s not hot” (never hot)
