MC Hammer says he's working on 'secret project' with Activision

by Justin McElroy { Dec 17th 2008 at 10:20AM }

Your grasp on reality is guaranteed to become progressively more tenuous as this proceeds, but try to hang on until we see how deep this rabbit hole goes, OK? First: MC Hammer is still working in some professional capacity. Second: MC Hammer is apparently a Twitter machine. We hope you're still with us, because here's the third thing: MC Hammer is apparently working on a secret project with Activision.

More specifically, his Twitter said, "I got one day to recover, then it's LA to Activision to get a glance of a top secrete[sic] project." And then, a day later Hammer drops, "Activision was fantastic ... action!" We know nothing else about this at the moment, but you can bet your Hammerpants we're going to find out.

Also, Hammer and Activision, if your "secrete" project was to turn what we thought of as our sanity into a nebulous half-nightmare from which only madness is given birth ... mission accomplished.

"No feeding the pigeons" became ... well ... use your imagination.

Great coffee table book.

AirIntake @ Dec 17th 2008 10:27AM

Knowing how religious he turned, it's probably another Left Behind sequel.

chispito @ Dec 17th 2008 2:24PM

He was always religious. Ever hear "Pray?"

AirIntake @ Dec 17th 2008 2:25PM

Of course I've heard it. I have the cassette!

arrakisman @ Dec 17th 2008 10:31AM

Comet @ Dec 17th 2008 10:31AM

Scott @ Dec 17th 2008 10:36AM

Why are you so surprised that MC Hammer is still alive?

Didn't you hear that he was 2 Legit 2 Quit?

brickwalker0 @ Dec 17th 2008 5:11PM

but now hes un-legit. and for that reason he must quit.

mietha CAG @ Dec 17th 2008 10:37AM

U Can't Touch This Hero? Um, just doesn't sound right. Or maybe: Too Legit to Hero? Sadly, that sounds better... Oh wait, wait, I got it: HAMMER HERO. No MC here foo!

I wonder if it will come with a parachute pants peripheral...

Obie @ Dec 17th 2008 10:55AM

Ya know, I would rather play an MC Hammer game than a Soulja boy game. I mean, seriously!

Courtney @ Dec 17th 2008 10:59AM

But what about an MC Hammer vs Soulja Boy game?

Obie @ Dec 17th 2008 11:03AM

As long as MC Hammer wins...sure.

DangerMouse @ Dec 17th 2008 11:07AM

The Mortal Kombat one is my favorite.

Hopefully it's not an economics simulator!

Anthony @ Dec 17th 2008 11:50AM

This will be an economic sTimulator

Comet @ Dec 17th 2008 11:27AM

You win at life sir.

John Z @ Dec 17th 2008 11:45AM

Here Comes The H.A.M.M.E.R.

John Z @ Dec 17th 2008 11:10AM

I can't be the only one who's interested in this just to see how absolutely insanely satirical this is going to turn out to be. Because come ON. It's MC Hammer. There's no possible way they can play this straight and expect people to think they mean it.
