Readers know the name of this blog is StorageRap. A couple weeks ago Netapp released a "viral video" that was a storage rap of sorts. Problem was it really sucked and didn't do anything to raise the standards for storage rapping. So, it became a high priority of this blog to respond and defend it's honor.
3P is 3PAR's storage rapper and in his first officially released rap titled "3P smacks up Netapp", he rages at Netapp for their lame attempt at storage rapping. As the song says, we don't take no crap.
The remix of 3P smacks up Netapp can be streamed from 3P's MySpace page.
You can also download the remix mp3 file by clicking on the link below:

Wow this sucks. The Netapp rap was a clever satire on 8mile, this just misses the point and isn't really very good either.

Adam, I have to assume you are not familiar with the storage blogosphere. But since you seem to think there something special about copping movies, here's one for you; I fart in your general direction.

"That was actually pretty well done," he said with surprise!
I thought the Netapp one was pretty funny too - though for different reasons.
The music was definitely better, too :)
