2 Phones is a 2015 rap song by Kevin Gates. It contains the lyrics, "I got two phones, one for the bitches and one for the dough".
Chris began using two cellphones in May 2018 (despite his dire financial situation).[1] When explaining the unusual possession of two phones, Chris alters the lyrics of "2 Phones" to:
| “ | I got two phones! One for the trolls, and one for my homes! I got two phones! One for the bullies, and one for my friends.[2] | ” |
On 7 May, Chris made a down payment on a Lease One, Get One deal from Sprint for two iPhones.[1][3][4] Although the deal was set to end on 12 May, and the Chandlers had to make two mortgage payments by 9 May or risk foreclosure, Chris still felt the need to prioritize funding the phones first.[1] While Chris claimed to the public that he had upgraded his iPhone 6s to 8s for free,[3] he admitted in private that he had spent money on a down payment.[1]
Chris believed it worthwhile to keep his older phone number[3] which is often the target of prank calls by trolls, while also funding a new number for trusted acquaintances. In effect, trolls indirectly contributed to Chris's poor financial decision to spend double on phone services to attempt to outmaneuver them. Although he aimed to keep the second number offline,[4] it has been leaked by others.[5][6]
