Snoop Dogg Partners With Norton To Fight Cybercrime

Security software maker Norton has hired rapper Snoop Dogg to be the face of a new contest that asks people to upload to “hackiswack.com” a 2 minute videos of themselves rapping about cybercrime. Winners get to hang out with the Snoop Dizzle, free tickets to his concert, and a new laptop preloaded with Norton Internet Security 2011. The partnership makes sense, as computer on Norton runs as fast as if you “smoke weed everyday.”

Seven videos have been uploaded so far, so you might even have a good chance of winning.

I guess Snoop hasn’t been putting his cashizzles in a Roth IRA, this celebrity endorsement marks a new desperate low for the once venerable rhymesmith.
