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.

  • FreedMike Meanwhile...Tesla's market share and YTD sales continue to decline, in an EV market that just set yet another quarterly sales record. Earth to Musk: stop with the political blather, stop with the pie-in-the-sky product promises, and start figuring out how to do a better job growing your business with good solid product that people want. Instead of a $30,000 self driving taxi that depends on all kinds of tech that isn't anywhere near ready for prime time, how about a $30,000 basic EV that depends on tech you already perfected? That will build your business; showing up at Trump rallies won't.
  • 28-Cars-Later "Here in Washington state they want to pass a law dictating what tires you can buy or not." Uh, waht?
  • Tassos NEVER. All season tires are perfectly adequate here in the Snowbelt MI. EVEN if none of my cars have FWD or AWD or 4WD but the most challenging of all, RWD, as all REAL cars should.
  • Gray Here in Washington state they want to pass a law dictating what tires you can buy or not. They want to push economy tires in a northern state full of rain and snow. Everything in my driveway wears all terrains. I'm not giving that up for an up to 3 percent difference.
  • 1995 SC I remember when Elon could do no wrong. Then we learned his politics and he can now do no right. And we is SpaceX always left out of his list of companies?
