Like how people were flooded with calls to Jenny, when that song came out and everyone just had to dial 8675309 lol
More recently, Mike Jones (Rapper) famously gave out his phone number in a song as well: (281)330-8004.
Why would he do that?
According to the song.
"Call me to buy cocaine" or maybe just artistic impression, who can say? Nobody if they know what's good for them.
