Meh. Sounds like this going wrong could be funnier.

Needs to have a moment with his Sister?

They're not actually brother and sister. They're the same person.
-
Confused as to who this retard is, I went and looked him up... Somehow, the stupidity and shameless cash grab seems less surprising finding out that it's a rapper.
-
Never heard of this person before. Is this someone I should add to my music repertoire?
Also selling consoles like this seems like a bad idea. How did anyone not know this is gonna be doomed from the start?

He's basically just a generic rapper. His most famous song is one with his name as a main lyric; that should clue you in.

-
@Gąska You can skip the first thirty seconds and the last minute and a half.
-
@pie_flavor it's not about time, it's about clickbait and extreme padding throughout entire video. I'm almost sure he could say it all in 90 seconds if he tried - without skipping any important part.

"Most famous" or "least unknown"?
And I'm sure he is a big player...
...
... in his own head.

He could. But he's JonTron.

Oh, trust me, it was a colossal earworm about six years ago. Everyone my age knows who he is even if they don't listen to his music.

The song was pretty big, something like 10 years ago.

Who?
-
@Gąska watch some of his other videos. He's famous for his really funny videos that rip into old obscure video games, and he was also in the original Game Grumps partnership before Dan.
-
@pie_flavor And is the one who proved to The Completionist that you can actually make a living doing that stuff.

As noted above: don't.

This calls for a 'shopped picture of him wearing a generic bread wrapper, or something like that, but that would violate my inner .

For maximum efficiency, skip the bit in between as well.

You can skip the entire video, and watch something that isn't made by a white-supremacist piece of shit.
What the actual fuck are you talking about? Since when is JonTron a white supremacist?
Since Alternative Facts.
-
@Tsaukpaetra y'know, just to see if he would do anything white supremacist, I watched this. It would have been more entertaining as a short article by a funny person, but I did not see anything white supremacist happen, unless I have forgotten to watch for chan signs. Now if all this guy does is rag on black celebrities all the time? I dunno, but I have no evidence for that. However, there is a giant spider on your back.

Well, it's a comedy channel, not a news channel. The padding is kinda the content.
-
@anonymous234 there's jokes for the sake of jokes, and there's padding for the sake of surpassing the magical barrier of 10 minutes because it supposedly doubles ad money. The latter is usually not even funny.
-
@Gąska Well that particular video was entirely padding IMO... the others do have jokes.
-
@anonymous234 probably because his other videos are all shorter than 10 or longer than 11 minutes. Except for one other video that by a total coincidence is also exactly 10:30, and two more that by a total coincidence are both exactly 10:01.
-
Judging by the set topic of this thread, and the topic of the ongoing discussion, I guess the "next big player" is JonTron.
-
@kazitor he's certainly big, and he's certainly a player.

I thought the name "Soulja Boy" made that part obvious. I mean, never heard of the guy before, but from the name, "rapper" was the first thing I thought.
-
@Medinoc I am entirely disconnected from any part of the music scene that plays on public radio i general, and rap and hiphöp in particular so the name mean absolutely nothing to me.

"How do you recognize a Soulja Boy song?"
"Don't worry, he'll fucking tell you."Same applies to DJ Khaled, except he will tell you several times without any pause in between.

Well he has a basic understanding of copyright law, so that puts him far ahead of Soulja Boy.

-
@Luhmann pfft, it's just the same 50 seconds repeated, what, 69 times or so? It clearly ought to be one and a half thousand unique occurrences.
-
@kazitor
you actually watched?
this thing is the rick roll of last year
-
@Luhmann I watched 50 seconds, then skipped to 1:40 to confirm my hypothesis.

Man.
FuckFork you guys.

-
So uh. Yeah. Regardless of who may or may not have said anything about any aspect of the situation at any time, or any related or unrelated situation, it looks like Soulja Boy might be going to jail.
Is there a consulting firm somewhere setting celebrities up with shitty tech businesses?
-
@Gribnit said in The next big player in the tech industry:
might
You forgot those huge airquotes. A single news site thinks that Nintendo contacted him over the games on the console, and are threatening to press criminal charges.
More likely will be some manager will smack Soulja Boy on the back of the head, say "stop being a fool bitch", and the consoles will vanish.
Of note: the consoles are just some knockoff shit bought from aliexpress, then resold. Not bought, branded and sold. Just-- straight-- resold.
