Lil Jon not part of the iPad craze

NEW YORK — Lil Jon says he’s not interested in keeping up with the trends in technology — and that includes the iPad.

In a recent interview, the rapper and producer said: “I already have a big … computer”. He called the iPad “just the latest toy.”

The 38-year-old is old school when it comes to his tech devices — he still carries the once-hot Sidekick, which he says “types really fast.”

He declared: “I ain’t going to buy no iPhone.” He also said the buttons on the BlackBerry are too small — and he has big thumbs.

Jon’s upcoming CD, “Crunk Rock,” is slated for release June 8.

(This version CORRECTS that Lil Jon is 38.)
