Xbox 360 Special Edition Sidekick LX Shown Off By Soulja Boy
Posted by Jason Chen at 6:50 AM on August 23, 2008
Soulja Boy claims that he has the only Xbox 360 Sidekick LX in the world, something that we believe him on, seeing as Danger is a huge fan of doing limited runs of designer Sidekicks for special people. Does it mean that Soulja Boy will have the only Xbox 360 Sidekick LX forever? Tough to say, but we're hoping there's some kind of tie-in seeing as Microsoft and Danger are more than just BFF. In the meantime, head over to Gamertagradio to see him fiddle around with it on video while mumbling incoherently. [Gamertagradio via Engadgetmobile]

I'm sure the guy who sold that to him, after slapping on an aftermarket faceplate and wallpaper, told him it was exclusive...

@TheSonOfKrypton: I am so with you on that one. Real ARTISTS like the Roots, Del the Funk Homosapien, and Dead Prez gets no love.
But the sidekick is kinda nice

Listen haters, there's no need to start drinkin your hatorade, while riding on the elehater. Soulja makes DANCE hip hop, he's rapping the dance moves. He's not claiming to be tupac, sheesh. Plus he's still a kid... His music does serve a purpose and has a place to some. There's an excellent vid of this guy cranking the batman on youtube and it makes me wish I could dance.

"Danger is a huge fan of doing limited runs of designer Sidekicks for special people."
Yes, he is special. Not quite the music I enjoy listening to where all the songs blend together (almost like Jack Johnson, but I enjoy Jack). I like my hip hop, but Soulja Boy is definitely not that.

Yeah, that no-talent puke is exactly who I go to for all my technology education. But he does get the award for stupidest, most annoying "song" in the past 5 years.

You guys do know that thisis NOT a real sidekick coming out. He just decided to be stupid and make a video with an LX.
Just because Engadget reports it, doesn't mean it's real.

Soulja Boy Up in this oh watch me crank that watch me role!
Common yallz just jealous cause you can't do the dance, the song becomes a lot less annoying when you do.
Otherwise yes I HATE that sing. When I first heard it I was like WTF is up with this SONG then I saw the dance and I was like Oh ok.

@DJTripleRRR: Soulja Boy is a DISGUSTING act.
I don't understand why people would make this a popular song.
Nothing hotter than jizzing a bitches back, sticking a bed sheet to her fat ass and letting her become batman.

Want your own Sidekick LX XBOX 360 Edition? Download the theme ([www.sklxthemes.com]) and then get a new lens frame off eBay. Looks like a bunch of the gadget sites got pranked by Soulja Boy.

I'm not even sure how to feel about that video... did our society fail us all? what happened to survival of the fittest? that youngster has a home nicer than mine with electronics nicer than mine for dancing around "mumbling incoherent" nonesense that they play at a club. meanwhile people are dying to help others for marginal wages. Now i don't feel bad for sharing music online.
