Grammy-nominated artist and record producer Soulja Boy Tell ’Em has turned a hit into a major advertising and promotional campaign. With the song “Kiss Me Thru the Phone” racing up the charts, you just knew an enterprising phone company would jump on it to seize a tie-in.

That’s exactly what Las Vegas-based Cricket did, and Soulja Boy is now front and center with its multi-faceted campaign. He’s helped launch the new Mobile Music service, which lets Cricket customers download songs easily and direct to phones, wireless devices and personal computers.

The star singer came to town for a meet and greet autograph and photo session with fans at the Cricket outlet near our UNLV campus. Our contributing photographer Erik Kabik snapped these shots especially for Vegas DeLuxe.
