“My Phone” Rap Created By Class Action Lawsuit Filer [Samsung, T-Mobile, Dramaz]

26

This is the last thing I thought I’d see in the sudden uproar against Samsung and T-Mobile over the Vibrant debacle. (Rumors alleged that Samsung and T-Mobile were holding back the Android 2.2 update for the original Vibrant until after the as-yet unannounced Samsung Vibrant 4G has been launched.)

The class action lawsuit was expected and was a decent touch, but the same guy who filed the lawsuit also happens to be a “musician” and created a song about the issue. I put my Beats by Dre on and hit the play button, and I was nothing short of amazed. No, not because someone was willing to rap about a phone. We’ve seen that time and time again. But because this was a member of XDA.

Kudos, MicBeast. Not only have you approached this situation with the seriousness of a lawsuit, but you’ve brought music into the mix that brings healthy comedic relief, whether you intended for that to happen or not. I’m sure you’ll win a lot more folks over for your cause with this song, and consider yours truly a personal fan. (But for all the wrong reasons.) [Listen (ReverbNation) via Android Forums]

The "Google Phone" sounded too awesome to pass up, so I bought a G1. The rest is history. And yes, I know my name isn't Wilson.

  1. This is waaaaayyyyy too funny. Lmao

  2. I hope him the best of luck in court, Samsung is a fucking joke!!

  3. “my phone, my phone, my phone doesn’t work” LOLOL LUSH

  4. My phone doesn’t work.. lol…my phone. He’s retarded but I can dig it. They can’t be raping folks and getaway with it. Sinista well done.

    I just went to use the maps and my phone went all black/my phone…lol
    CLASSIC

  5. Lol not the most talented rapper but funny as hell. Wish him good luck!

  6. You do realize this guy is a nut job that never had a lawsuit right? He never even had a lawyer, you may want to stop giving the clown press. He is now using you guys to push his trash.

    He never filed a lawsuit and was lying to promote his “rap” career its been proven on xda.

  7. Funny Samsung gave the updates to european cell companies and all the Canadian cell companies and those companies rolled them out long time ago, I got mine over a month ago. They gave it to the US cell providers prior to Dec 14th and the cell companies are holding them off from you and you blame Samsung? Everyone else they gave Froyo to rolled it out to their customers.

  8. @art did you read the news about the hold up? its mostly samsungs fault at least in the us. the song is so funny because the lyric is so true.

  9. I don’t think anyone who doesn’t have a US galaxy s variant has a right to say anything. Its extremely frustrating to have a phone with some of the best hardware available but be 2 versions of android behind, and your very phone maker pushing out phones with froyo and gibgerbread as we speak, and these phones also have identical hardware as our galaxy s.

  10. Seriously need to stop giving this douche attention and plubicity!

  11. Wow phandroid is going to become a joke in the android blog world.
    Quentyn has 0 credibility.
    To post this as if it’s true after it’s already been proven this guy has no lawsuit is just completely irresponsible.

  12. I hope people just start sending in bogus stories to see if android will publish them what a joke.

  13. Wow….thats the worst rapper ive probably ever heard. And ive Been making hiphop music for 10 or so years. Gotta love the nonsenical ramblings that dont even rhyme.

  14. lawls there is NO lawsuit, its a good song but come on Q do some research, and no listening to a song does NOT count as research

  15. all they could do was complain and milk wealth-fare … then they learned to bitch to a primitive beat… then they found out about lawsuits ! :)))

  16. People who want to defend samsdung do a little research please. Samsdung is a typical korean family business ran by ex convicts. Prior to his pardon in December, Samsung Electronics’ Chairman Lee had also been pardoned in the 1990s after being convicted of bribing two former presidents!

    So what if this guy is a nut job he is right about the phone having problems and something fishy going on with the update.

  17. all rap and hip hop music is awful.

  18. No lawsuit has been filed. I have the email to prove it.

  19. if you don’t believe the source you can go to wall street journal bloomberg or forbes you can read about corruption at samsung our buy the book Think Samsung.
    I half believe the latest rumor about samsdung holding the update for cash. Historically that’s the way they do business.

  20. What ever the case, he never filed anything. Just another blowhard, just this one used the blogs to promote him.

  23. I love all the people who bash companies because you have never help a real position with any real authority or responsibility

  24. @Bobert you need help with your position lol. Stick to the facts personal attacks won’t convince anyone you only make yourself look more foolish. Take a break and do some research. You sound like a Samsung employee who had his feelings hurt by the truth.

  25. So lets get this correct you wont run a story from xda cause its a hacker forum, YET you post this story which was all bull crap in the first place which originated from the XDA forum. Brilliant.
