Snoop Dogg Joins the War On Cybercrime
wiredmikey writes "Think you can bust out some silly fresh rhymes on the subjects of hacking, identity theft and computer viruses? In a somewhat untraditional partnership, Snoop Dogg and Symantec's Norton want you to show off your their lyrical skills on the subject of cybercrime and enter the 'Hack is Wack' cybercrime rap contest. If you have the skills and bust out the phattest rap, you'll receive round trip airfare for two to Los Angeles along with two days and two nights' hotel stay to meet with Snoop's management, learn more about his business. You'll also get two tickets to a Snoop Dogg concert and a new laptop pimped out with Norton Internet Security 2011."
...should be added to the list of cybercrimes.
Hey Snoop, MC Lars, MC Chris, MC Frontalot, and a whole slew of other nerdcore, laptop, geek lyricists beat you to rapping about hacking a long time ago. The funny thing? They disagree with you. Acoording to them, Hack ain't whack but got them to the stop of the intellectual stack (okay, there's a reason I'm not a rapper). The point is, you're late to the tech. rap show.
This reminds me of MC Lars' "We've Arrived."

Just incase anyone missed it.
..... FO drizzle... FO.
Symantec is retarded.
And as for Snoop Dog,
don't get me started.

Snoop Dog was cool? When did that happen?
You're very young, aren't you? ;)
Seriously, there was a time when he pretty much was West Coast hip-hop. That time is long gone, of course, and he's turned into self-parody now, but it did happen.
The correlation between ignorance of statistics and using "correlation is not causation" as an argument is close to 1.
