Jeep Twitter Hacked, TTAC Helps Decode The Hip-Hop Slang

My youth and inexperience may sometimes be a liability. Sometimes, I haven’t been on this earth long enough to place certain events and new model introductions in their proper context, ala Jack Baruth. But what I am good at, is listening to rap music. Today, the countless hours of pretending to be an inner-city drug dealer can finally be monetized, as Jeep’s Twitter account was hacked by some hip-hop loving cyber-vandals.

The hacked tweets contained numerous references to rap artists like 50 Cent and most of all, Chief Keef. Chief Keef is the latest sensation in hip-hop, a 17 year old diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome who has already been sued for child support, kicked off Instagram for posting photographs of minors committing sex acts and jailed for illegally discharging a firearm.

Keef’s catch phrases “3 Hunna” (also spelled “300”) and his record label, Glory Boy Entertainment” appear numerous times in the Jeep tweets. There’s no rhyme or reason for this, especially since Keef raps about Ferraris, Range Rovers and Audis, but never Jeeps. All we can chalk this up to is someone like myself, but much more adept at hacking, is having some fun at Jeep’s expense. Also given “shoutouts” are Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill and Worldstar Hip-Hop, a site that has been described as “ the CNN of the ghetto”. Tweets have been screencapped below for your enjoyment.

    Riddle for Cheif Keef: What's the difference between a baby-dadda and a picnic table? A picnic table supports a family.

    You know you've made it as an artist when you have a .79 cent Bic lighter in your hand on your album cover.

  • Calrson Fan Jeff - Agree with what you said. I think currently an EV pick-up could work in a commercial/fleet application. As someone on this site stated, w/current tech. battery vehicles just do not scale well. EBFlex - No one wanted to hate the Cyber Truck more than me but I can't ignore all the new technology and innovative thinking that went into it. There is a lot I like about it. GM, Ford & Ram should incorporate some it's design cues into their ICE trucks.
  • Michael S6 Very confusing if the move is permanent or temporary.
  • Jrhurren Worked in Detroit 18 years, live 20 minutes away. Ren Cen is a gem, but a very terrible design inside. I’m surprised GM stuck it out as long as they did there.
  • Carson D I thought that this was going to be a comparison of BFGoodrich's different truck tires.
  • Tassos Jong-iL North Korea is saving pokemon cards and amibos to buy GM in 10 years, we hope.
