Hip hop artist Lil Wayne alternates between reality and virtual reality with the Samsung Gear VR. In reality, he does mundane activities like drink tea and sit on a couch. But, in virtual reality, he fights robots in outer space and rides in a canoe with Wesley Snipes. The worlds begin to blend as Lil Wayne removes his Gear VR headset and Snipes is in his living room. After announcing that he's talking to Snipes in reality, Lil Wayne puts the headset back on, and in no time, he's surfing in Thailand with him. Canoeing together may be cool, but for Snipes, surfing together is very cool. Samsung introduces the virtual reality powered Galaxy S7 Edge.
