Big Shaq Booking Agency Profile

Book Big Shaq for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Michael Dapaah, better known as his stage name, Big Shaq, is a British actor, comedian, and rapper, who is known for his mockumentary, Somewhere in London, or SWIL, which follows four characters as they take their journey to success. Dapaah was born in Croydon, London, England, and while growing up, he found a love for acting and comedy although his parents wanted him to be a doctor. He later went on to study film, acting, and theatre at Brunel University and also studied a bit at the National Youth Theatre. Dapaah began to gain local fame in the United Kingdom as well as in Africa where he also lived for some time after he began performing comedy shows which included ‘Meet the Adebanjos.’ After his growing fame, Dapaah went on to release the YouTube page SWIL, which earned over 1 million views in the first series. Through the show, Dapaah created his alter ego, Big Shaq, which led to him recording the comedic rap, “Man’s Not Hot,” which peaked at number 3 on the UK charts and also peaked in the charts in nine other countries which included Australia, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Sweden, and more. His single earned BPI, ARIA, and GLF certified platinum. Since then, under the name Big Shaq, Dapaah has gone on to release singles which include “Man Don’t Dance,” “Daily Duppy,” “Buss It Down,” and “Chicken Shop Freestyle.”.

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Big Shaq to perform.

Will Big Shaq do a virtual event?
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Big Shaq in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Big Shaq or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Is Big Shaq available to work my event?
Big Shaq's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Big Shaq for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Big Shaq, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Big Shaq. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
How much is Big Shaq charging for events?
CTI can give you the accurate Big Shaq booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Big Shaq for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Big Shaq booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Big Shaq charge for an event. An example fee to book Big Shaq is in the starting range of $150,000-$299,000. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
How do I contact the Big Shaq agent or manager?
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Big Shaq agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Big Shaq manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
Can I book Big Shaq for an event at a price less than shown?
There is low probability to book Big Shaq for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Big Shaq agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Big Shaq, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Big Shaq booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Big Shaq, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
