"If you want to get ahead, and get noticed, get a hat"
A hat is the most noticeable item of clothing one can wear, it is the first place that attracts attention as it is right above the face.
"attracting attention"
The hat is for a person that wants to interact with the rest of the world, through personal sound recordings. A person that wants to show off in public giving away pieces of his own mind. It has two audio recording devices embedded in balls which hang from the hat. Each recorder has a different sound (a phrase, or lyric or something somebody else said, that has been recorded by the person wearing the hat) which can be played when one of the balls is pressed. The user would use these while walking down the street or sitting in a park or at party when trying to socialize, showing off in a friendly and fun way. The balls will have different sounds coming out of them, based on what the person has recorded - music, messages, sounds. And therefore will make the hat unique to the person wearing it.
