    Can't stand Drake. I'm watching Sports Nation and he shows up -thinks he's on the Raptors- like they are winning because of him. BlackBerry doesn't need his IG and 'tweets'. At least Sean Combs kicked his ***.

    No, BlackBerry does need him and other "stars" to like BlackBerry and use social media to say that. Especially since BlackBerry doesn't have to pay him or others for free advertising unlike the train wreck it was having Alicia keys

    What is a Drake? Is it made out of clay?



    You might think so but I couldn't possibly comment.

    I think a passport and z30 would be great to let more people know about them and that BlackBerry has awesome 16:9 touch screen only phones too.

    I don't know who Drake is but the more Blackberry can get their devices into the public, especially people in the limelight, the better for them.

    LOL... This is exactly why BlackBerry needs stuff like this. BlackBerry needs more of the type of people who know who Drake is using BlackBerry phones

    Millenials are future (or even current) managers and CEOs.

    It's not bad to not know who he is. It's actually good. I don't follow irrelevant mainstream music "artists" so I don't know all the news guys. And I'm 23.

    FYI: No offence intended to TgeekB. Just meant to point out that the "Drake aware" demographic is not currently getting the BlackBerry message even though, over the next decade, they will be (or already are) exactly the "business" crowd BlackBerry is currently targeting.

    No offense taken. They need many demographics to eventually return to Blackberry. They are currently concentrating on enterprise. If it works out then maybe Drake or others in the music industry will be next. As you said, some of the young people who currently are focused on music will be focused on enterprise in the near future.

    I'm 28 but still don't know who he is.
    I just google it. Yes, he's a rapper from Canada.
    Since I live in Indonesia, so I didn't know him. I'm thinking maybe BlackBerry can pick up more internationalize artist. Michael Buble maybe.

    You are absolutely right man The point is that Drake has always been a BB fan and that's why BB send a new one to him: free marketing for them! He is well known to people who listen to rap in the North America as well as in Europe (don't know in other countries). It is nonetheless a good sign even if I agree: they should put a BlackBerry in more "vips" hands if they want a major comeback in the consumer market (which seems it is not the case right now)..

    In addition, BlackBerry also need to consider distribution strategy. One of the best in Indonesia to distribute and after sales service is Nokia and samsung, of course.
    Samsung uses buzzers on Twitter. Like many celebrities in Indonesia who have millions of followers. Social media in Indonesia is one of major way of promotion. It will be good. Since we're one of big market in Asia.

    This Drake is a VIP? On what planet?

    If he is considered a VIP than we need to reassess the term Very IMPORTANT Person.

    If I'm 14 then I guess he might be a VIP. Seeing how in a FEW years north of that age, he doesn't mean very much to me.

    Whether he has a BlackBerry in his hand or not doesn't change my buying pattern.

    You might think so but I couldn't possibly comment.
