Soulja Boy plays with Xbox 360 Special Edition Sidekick LX, pleads for attention on video

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. "[e-mail] -- holla atcha boy!"

lol yup...i'm sure a real xbox sidekick would have more than just a white body and theme....he just used colorware and a theme.

"i'd rather be broke than become that stupid piece of shit." Hey Bilzz 419 is that because he is black?

[blizz419 Posted Aug 22nd 2008 1:25PM]

you sir get the award for dumbest post in this topic so far even worse than flashpoints.

[KEROLiUKAS Posted Aug 22nd 2008 1:13PM]

Does RRoD ?

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 22nd 2008 1:42PM]

Blizz i agree ^

I have respect for Soulja Boy. He is one hell of a businessman. He has an idea, launches directly at the core audience, and then basks in the fame/glory/media. All you poser MBA hopefuls should take notes. This is how the game is played.

Oh, and the bitterness comes from the fact that a) your social life is not as vibrant, and b) you were the D&D creep in high school, and got straight A's but waste your life at an IT firm while this guy, with no education, makes more money than you can count.

Welcome to America, where ANYTHING is possible, as long as you have the dedication.

Props SB.

[blizz419 Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:05PM]

yup theres that so common American way of thinking he earns money so he deserves respect, even if it is damaging to a genre/culture personal wealth is all that matters, and yes i am American.

If you are offeneded by something, you can ignore it. Personally, I am not a fan of his music, but I am a fan of his idea and execution. Besides, modern music is dead.

[blizz419 Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:35PM]

yes for the most part modern music is dead, one of our great forms of expression has been destroyed exploiting the demographic thats gonna spend the most money on music, young teenie boppers for the most part many other variables as well, i only seem to find good music coming from the underground these days indie artists and such, you did not offend me i just think simply gaining wealth is not a deserving reason for respect or admiration as some of the most evil people are very wealthy, someones personality and intelligence, ethics are what respect should be based on in my book.

Social life not as vibrant? What? I usually have at least 4 friends over when I break out the video camera to show off my newest toys.... he only had 3... I'd say I win.

[ultrabot Posted Aug 22nd 2008 5:29PM]

modern music is dead because of people like soulja boy

It would be nice if the fellow in the video would speak English.

[das boot Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:16PM]

Has anyone considered that he may have modded the sidekick and then made the video so he can get work from the cell phone company? i guess he spent all his millions on bitches, ho's and crack.

[sithyaoigamer Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:28PM]

He need to learn how to speak instead of playing games... at his age it's an embarrassment !

[sithyaoigamer Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:30PM]

I agree. I didn't understand one thing he said. I understood the sidekick's systems sounds more. LOL

[BIG E Posted Aug 22nd 2008 2:40PM]

Is there a transcript of the video available?

[barry99705 Posted Aug 22nd 2008 3:32PM]

Like I always say, You can't have crap without rap! This is probably the stupidest thing I've seen on this site this week.

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 22nd 2008 4:12PM]

does it come with the red ring of death too

[Chris8pie Posted Aug 22nd 2008 5:24PM]

"Insert RRoD joke here"

Supasookdahoe! Supasookdahoe!

In all honesty, if this guy were over 18, and i was around his age, not 30 (just not fair for him) i would drop this guy on the pavement if i ever saw him in real life. I file him in the category of human garbage like That douchebag from limpbizkit and that pervert who does the girls gone wild videos. Absolute f@#$ing garbage human being. Some stupid smart assed rapper who thinks he's cool singing an unintelligible song listened to by a bunch of dumbass kids.

But hey- grats to you on your unintelligible bullshiz video- hope someone knocks you out for being a pocmark on the ass of humanity.

"it would probably have a hard time convincing an A-list rapper to carry a prototype Sidekick"

the link states that is not a prototype at all.

[waynoworlater Posted Aug 22nd 2008 5:35PM]

so, didn't microsoft buy danger, this is too weird...

[michaspi Posted Aug 22nd 2008 6:18PM]

YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU just lost the game.

[waterboy99troop Posted Aug 23rd 2008 12:07AM]

I'm getting an idea. I should start calling myself "Soulless Boy" and start making crappy rhythms so that I can pimp products.

"I'm telling YOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUU, crank that iPhone up!"

...

I never said it was a good idea...

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 23rd 2008 5:25PM]

i think i rather see soulja boy using a sidekick then my co-workers who have bb and dont know what a pin is or how to send one.

i'd rather be the person who discovered, gave him a contract, produce the song then to be soulja boy because they get majority of his money.

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 23rd 2008 7:41PM]

That's pretty lackluster for a "special edition" phone.

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 26th 2008 2:56PM]

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.



People who spend all day defending Soulja Boy MUST be 14 ...go clean your room...you got school tomorrow
