EA has released a new video for FIFA 18 featuring two celebrities playing against each other on the PlayStation 4. Ordinarily, this isn`t the kind of thing that we`d report on, but one of those celebs happens to be a personal hero: Big Shaq ... the one and only.If you`re not familiar with him, Michael `Big Shaq` Deepah aka `Roadman Shaq,` is a comedian and Grime artist that shot to fame with his breakout hit, `Mans Not Hot.` Performed on Radio 1Xtra`s Fire In The Booth, the track is a caricature of roadmans in the UK and has since become fodder for internet memes and parodies.
