Ad Large Media, Shaq Fu Radio Ink Rep Deal

Shaq Fu Radio, the 24/7 streaming Hip Hop radio station from legendary NBA all-star, actor, rapper, and DJ, Shaquille O’Neal, has chosen AdLarge Media as its exclusive ad sales partner.

Drawing off the emotions of his favorite music, Shaq hosts several shows throughout the week, spinning R&B and Hip Hop tunes and interviewing his celebrity friends, such as Justin Beiber, Mark Cuban, Ludacris, DJ Khaled, and this year’s Grammy nominee in eleven categories, Kendrick Lamar.

AdLarge’s advertisers can connect to listeners through Shaq Fu’s squad of DJs and specialized content, such as programs like The Quiet Storm Show with all “slow jamz.”  #AskShaq, a new interactive, live call-in show, will debut Wednesday, December 16th at 5:00 p.m. ET, when fans can talk directly to Shaq.  Shaq keeps in touch with his fans on social media, with 20 million followers across Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

“I never won at anything on or off the court without a great team. We are excited at Shaq Fu Radio to have AdLarge as our teammate,” said Shaquille O’Neal, Owner, Shaq Fu Radio.

“Music played such an important role in my life as a kid, as a player in the NBA, and now,” Shaq continued.  “It triggers memories, emotions, and was my release after a tough game and a bounce after a win.  If you listen to Shaq Fu Radio, you will hear some songs that will take you back and some that are from my close personal friends.  I also wanted to create a platform that would allow up and coming artists and DJs to have a place to showcase what they can do.”

“In all of media, it is rare to have an opportunity to partner with an organization like Shaq Fu Radio and a talent like Shaq,” stated Gary Schonfeld, Co-Founder and Co-Chief Executive Officer, AdLarge Media. “Shaq is one of the most recognizable and respected names in the world, and our loyal advertisers are the beneficiaries of this unique partnership.”

Shaq Fu Radio launched in June, 2015, and can be heard 24/7 via Internet streaming at www.ShaqFuRadio.com, on iHeart and iTunes, and on free iPhone and Android apps.  The mobile apps have been downloaded more than 16,000 times and there have been 350,000 button pushes.  For more information on advertising, contact AdLarge Media at www.adlarge.com or call 212-302-1100.
