Like it or not though, his PS3 comments just killed a lot Sony sales from kids that look up to Soulja Boy. You guys might joke about his "ethnic" mannerisms and his broken ebonic English, but he sold a lot of records (platinum) and we all know how blind fanboys can be.

And that was free advertisement and Microsoft didn't even have to pay him.

bah what a lot of wofl

Who lsiten's to rap music anyway...lol...oh wait...alot.   Well, who buys product based on what rappers have to say anyway...oh wait...darn not looking good...

wait wait wait wait wait....

there are people looking up to this... person?

back to off topic.

I don't think Rei is emo, she just doesn't know any human emotions. lol, Shinji is the emo one.

 Back ON topic, since he sold millions of album, so i think MORe people have heard of him, then most of the fanboys on this site, giving their opinions.  So, free endorsements never hurt, and as far as "looking up"...errr...it depends on how you want to define that.  There are many kids in the video game playing age, who will be affectd by his preference...does that mean he's some acknowledge expert...no...but is Tom Brady an expert on shaving cream, or Dave Beckham on brief?  For anybody dismissing him, just because you don't listen to rap is pretty stupid...and part of why PS3 is lodged in dead last, from first place with over 120 million console for the last gen.   

what language is he speaking?

what is the point of the video?

oh yeah... who is he?


The answers are unimportant to the gaming society. Carry on, just someone trying to show off his gaming skills and how elite he is. Nothing to see~

I live in the hood, I listen to rap/hip hop (although I have really stopped listening to rap/hip hop for like almost a year, well the mainstream crap anyways) and I can vouch for that. High School kids do his dance (I can't lie, I used to do it) and like his songs, because they are "club bangers" and thats wat all these kids are into now, clubs and smoking weed/drinking and all that cuz it's wat's "in." Anyways, his audience is high school kids (I would hope people that are not in high school don't listen to him) and high school kids buy games and consoles so yea. Maybe kids are actually smart enough to make their mind up for themselves and actually pay attention and see that "PS3 does have games"

I can at least understand about David Beckham, he at least (at one point of his career) bought national pride to a nation.

As for "more people have heard of him"... heck, I've heard of many many people, doesn't mean I'd take advices for them.

Anybody who is willing to make major console purchase decisions... based on some guy on TV who apparently hasn't mastered English as first language, isn't really even worth talking about there.

Last but not least... no, people aren't dismissing him because they 'don't listen to rap'. They... or shall i say. "we"? dismiss him because of soooo many more obvious reasons, starting with the obvious one "PS3 aint got no games"...  Let's be serious, even the dumbest fanboy who probably already got banned already, had more interesting things to say and made better arguments than he did.

damn double post...

Also.. I weep for the youth who somehow viewed this guy as 'role-model'... *shivers*

WOAH!!! It's 2006 again!!!
