Petite drame dans le grand monde du rap US : 50 Cent veut changer de pseudonyme. En effet, l’homme-gilet pare-balles a balancé ceci sur son compte Twitter : « 50 Cent est un personnage que j’ai créé, et il sera bientôt temps de le détruire et de devenir quelqu’un d’autre« . Allez Curtis, avoue que t’en as juste marre de ton pseudo à, ahem, deux balles.
[i]La déclaration :[/i]
This is a statement regarding Nirvana, Guitar Hero and the likeness of the late Kurt Cobain.
We want people to know that we are dismayed and very disappointed in the way a facsimile of Kurt is used in the Guitar Hero game. The name and likeness of Kurt Cobain are the sole property of his estate – we have no control whatsoever in that area.
While we were aware of Kurt’s image being used with two Nirvana songs, we didn’t know players have the ability to unlock the character. This feature allows the character to be used with any kind of song the player wants. We urge Activision to do the right thing in “re-locking” Kurt’s character so that this won’t continue in the future.
It’s hard to watch an image of Kurt pantomiming other artists’ music alongside cartoon characters. Kurt Cobain wrote songs that hold a lot of meaning to people all over the world. We feel he deserves better.
