Sued PS3 Hacker GeoHot Responds With Rap

This article is over 13 years old and may contain outdated information

Notorious PS3 Hacker GeoHot has something for Sony it won’t be able to mess with.

Sony might be succeeding in the legal battle against George “GeoHot” Hotz, the hacker that posted the PS3’s master key online, but GeoHot is winning the rap battle. GeoHot recently posted a video of himself on YouTube where he raps about his feelings on the lawsuit.

The video is GeoHot’s entry into an online rap contest, but I have a feeling it’s a little bit of catharsis too. In typical rap fashion, GeoHot says he wants to take things “out of the courtroom, and into the streets.”

The rap is actually pretty good. GeoHot calls Sony out for suing him due to its inability to technically protect the PS3. He also mentions Lik Sang, the import website Sony shutdown with a lawsuit in 2006.

Who knew GeoHot was so talented? A hacker and a rapper? What a dangerous combination. Any chance of Kevin Butler coming up with a reply?
