Lol. I forgot to post the link to the video:

The blond kid is a currently one of the most famous people on the planet 
due to this video. If you can understand and harness why this is so, 
then you could be a viral-marketing genius.

> "Yeah, it's Skrilla, yeah, it's Skrilla / Yeah, it's me"
> The artist is introducing himself, asserting his presence and identity.
> 
> "Shades on, I'm Boul Wit Da Glasses"

> 
> "You ain't catch that, I can't pass this (come here)"
