Why lust after a
Zunephone when you can have an Xbox 360 Sidekick LX? Based on an admittedly bizarre and entirely painful-to-watch video posted up in the read link, Soulja Boy is seen spazzing out over what appears to be a special edition Sidekick LX. The unit is branded (at least in the software) with Xbox 360 logos, and there's also a copy of
Resident Evil: Genesis on there that he toys with momentarily. So, the question here: is this thing legit? On one hand,
Danger does have a thing for pumping out
limited run Sidekicks like they're
going out of style, and plus, it would probably have a hard time convincing an A-list rapper to carry a prototype Sidekick. On the other, we're really inclined to believe this is just a sad way for Soulja Boy to fill up his inbox with soulless emails. "SouljaBoyTellEm@tmail.com -- holla atcha boy!"

It's sad that this kid will be doing infomercials in 25 years promoting QVC's top 10 hit's. But much success to him. Yaahhhh Bitch Yaaaahh!
I'd just like to thank all the people on Engadget calling Soulja Boy "dumb" and disrespecting him.
Too bad he has more money than MOST OF YOU WILL EVER SEE.
and how did he get it? He came up with a niche performance while the rest of you sit on the internet arguing about which is better Mac or PC.
i'd rather be broke than become that stupid piece of shit.
flashpoint = soulja boy
now superman that hoe!!!
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it apparently buys respect.
"i'd rather be broke"
TOO LATE.
"stupid piece of shit"
alot of people call George W Bush an idiot and a fool, etc,etc. But when you think about it, HE'S WALKING OUT OF OFFICE WITH ALL YOUR MONEY AND ALL YOUR FREEDOMS.
Who's the bigger fool?
Solja Boy would kick your ass by the way you fat computer nerd.
Soulja Boy's music is for teenage girls. Proof that he sucks: google "stallman soulja boy", and watch the freetard Richard Stallman and a bunch of MIT students dance to it.
@Flashpoint: "He came up with a niche performance while the rest of you sit on the internet arguing about which is better Mac or PC."
And you're better than us because you're trolling?
You're the real fat computer nerd, flashpoint.... you eat too many cheesy poofs. LOL
damn you must be pretty fuckin stupid Flashpoint claiming assumptions as fact, soulja boy is lil bitch not too difficult of task i wouldn't think and I'm nothing like the person you imagine me to be i can guarantee that why you would defend someone like soulja boy so much boggles my mind you must be a teenage girl, i can care less if he has money i would never sell my beliefs for money, money does not make you a better person that shit only impresses mindless sheep.
"and how did he get it? He came up with a niche performance while the rest of you sit on the internet arguing about which is better Mac or PC."
What are you talking about? All he did was shout his name over and over again with a few lines in between saying how he spunked all over a girls back, then put a sheet on it and waited for it to dry so that it stuck to her back like a superman cape.
He doesn't actually deserve any money. Anybody could have come up with that "song" but I don't think any artists thought that anything like that would become so succesful.
I still can't understand what he is saying half the time.
@Flashpoint
Since when does making money make you smart? There are plenty of rich people who are dumber than a box of rocks.
uh... not to stop the boring flow of morals, money, and morons, but since this is a gadget site, i wanted to proposet that possibly that special edition sidekick = sidekick running an xbox theme... ???? maybe?? like from a site like this: http://www.sk3themes.com/
just a thought....
ok!!! back to you guys fighting about people with money being bitches or being able to kick fat, nerdy guys' asses.... thanks
I thought it was @tmomail.net.
Oh well, either way, that guy cannot rap. Period. I've seen aluminum foil that can wrap better than this guy.
DARN KIDS
It takes no skill to wrap. Anyone can do that.
Really? 'cause all those greasy kids at Wendy's to a MUCH better job than I do.
That is sad to hear.
it is username@tmail for sidekicks, and number@tmomail for pretty much every other phone.
YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU don't have much respect for soulja boy
nor should anyone.
Soulja Burn.
This kid the smartest dumbass on the planet.
"Soulja boy sell em" i hate that guy, makes me wish for the day when his money runs out and he has to perform sexual favours to old army generals for his fix of attention and money, as he doesnt really have any other talent to fall back on.
i'll say ha ha to this. a little homophobic but whatever. Any pop-ass slut should get their ass slayed in this forum, is my vote.
cant be homophobic... unless i'm self hating.
Can you blame guy?
He probably got some Fanta grape soda and a pack of Newports for his record contract.
Dude needs some sort of pop. Let him baste in his flailing stardom.
more like his own clothing line and white out and sunglasses. har har har
That kid is dumber that a box of pet rocks.
Yet smarter than the person who owns those pet rocks...
A-List Rapper?
That's the most disgusting thing I think I've ever read on E.
"it would probably have a hard time convincing an A-list rapper to carry a prototype Sidekick"
I'm pretty sure that Engadget is saying that rather than giving it to an A-list rapper, Danger instead gave it to Soulja Boy. Is everything right with the universe again?
Universe: Corrected.
This kid knows how to make money, is all I'm saying.
wut wut?
Agreed he used his fame to get sponsors and everytime someone watches a video on his site he gets .15 cents a view...
So random people that talk bad about him and watch his videos are just adding fuel to the fire...
That sounds like an invitation to get hacked to me. I can't wait to read those text messages.
So he colorwared a lx and loaded a (shitty) 360 theme on it. And left the shitty system sounds on it.
Soulja boy is a disgrace to hip-hop even more so than most these wack ass rappers on radio these days.
YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Coming soon
Soulja boy Sidekick Special Edition with Permanent Ring tone set to "Crank Day Soulja Boy"
Other Special Edition action sounds such as
"YOOUUUUUUU Got an new Email"
"Yahhh TEXT Yahhhhh "
"Crank Dat Missed Phone Call "
All for the low low price of FAIL.99
I look forward to the Soulja Boy Edition TomTom.
I'm sending you the bill for my new keyboard! LOL
With a 2 year contract of couse!
no one has mentioned it yet...but microsoft bought danger this year. and it was announced that danger would be folded into the same division that xbox is in (i cant remember the name but its the one that makes xbox, zune, and other hardware stuff). therefore, i think this is legit
No, just no.
that guy needs sub-titles like don vito !!
OK, jack azz... we get it, the screen flips. You keep telling us to look, then you keep flipping the screen back and forth. You come of as one dumb azz monkey.
Agreed.
its a stupid theme, jesus people http://www.sklxthemes.com/theme/6519
This was obvious. Not sure why Engadget reported in the way they did. Oh well.
