    Think you can bust out some silly fresh rhymes on the subjects of hacking, identity theft and computer viruses? In a somewhat untraditional partnership, Snoop Dogg and Symantec’s Norton want you to show off your lyrical skills on the subject of cybercrime and enter the "Hack is Wack" cybercrime rap contest.

    The contest, which runs through Sept. 30, 2010, asks participants to create and upload a two-minute rap video at www.HackIsWack.com.
    Snoop is going make the initial call for entries through his Facebook account, Twitter and YouTube page.

    The winner, to be announced on Oct. 20, 2010, will be selected based on overall creativity, rapping and performing skills, and delivery of a compelling anti-cybercrime message.

      I'm already cringing...

      I'm just glad that the Symantec Vision roadshow is on Tuesday and not after this competition finishes. That way there is definitely no chance that we will be subjected to the submissions.

      I read that as Cyberdyne and imagined him taking down robots, gangsta style, yo.

      Is anyone from here going to enter?
      Perhaps a 'zgeek crew' submission?

      Pro Theme:

      Rap about how Symantec auto-charged your credit card for renewal without your consent.

      Snoop Dogg is now a Cyber-Crime Hound. Lame sellout.
