    BlackBerry should buy 1 million albums and run a campaign with rapper Drake. Drake is a Canadian rapper and it would be good support for BlackBerry and for Canada. It would also help with sales to young teens by giving them the feeling that BlackBerry is cool to use and not for the guy in a suit.

    just kidding... but yeah, they need a 'seemingly neutral' third party to raise awareness of the 'new' BlackBerry. Kids only roll their eyes at their parents self-proclamation of being 'cool'... but can be more effectively swayed to see adults as 'cool' if others see those adults as 'cool'.

    How does the saying go? "If you have to tell people you are, you aren't."

    I agree it's good, because as much as people don't like it. Rappers mean cool, and in, and cool and on means devices sold and devices sold means money.

    But this could always backfire on Em as anything can

    Says you, hip hop culture has reached its hand into just about everything and everywhere. It would be wise to get a hot artist or celeb onto the BlackBerry train.

    I agree that BlackBerry should sponsor Drake and I don't know why they haven't been doing it for a long time. He's Canadian and he always used to talk about them in records, he even used to read his verses off of his BB device. Drake should be sponsored and his music videos should feature heavy product placement.

    Still lost but ok. I think we all can agree to disagree that BlackBerry needs to take a trip around the states in order to find out how we living. They dont understand the youth out here.

    I actually brought up the same idea in another thread. Also, a lot of athletes, especially NBA players, have been spotted with Q10s. Why not capitalize on that? Phish isn't commercial enough. Dave Matthews though.
