Once upon a time, Barkley wrote a book called I May Be Wrong But I Doubt It; I think it's safe to say this T-Mobile commercial, featuring longtime pitchmen Barkley and Dwyane Wade, might revitalize sales of the book briefly.
The two guys in the studio early in the commercial are Miami-based hip-hop production team Cool and Dre, and this may well be their best work. That echoed sample of Barkley's voice is flipped nicely, and almost sounds wistful when recontextualized into a poppy song a la DJ Steve Porter's "Press Hop" series.
My only question: it took until just now for someone to Auto-Tune Charles Barkley?
