I'm just asking who is the rapper who samples Deceptacon, not Le Tigre's whole history, and what it's called.

From Wikipedia:

Le Tigre licensed two of their songs for use in advertisements by Canadian telephone provider Telus and Australian jewelery chain Goldmark. A sample from "Deceptacon" (Deceptacon is French for Decepticon)plays in the background of a 2006 television commercial for Nivea cosmetics. Le Tigre's "TKO" is featured in the 2006 movie Accepted.

In the second half of 2006, Le Tigre went on hiatus [1].In 2006, Le Tigre contributed to Yoko Ono's Yes, I'm A Witch album by remixing "Sisters O Sisters". The band decided to take an extended break starting early 2007.[2]

Thousands of baseball fans in New England, USA are familiar with at least a bit of Le Tigre's sound. The Boston Red Sox radio broadcast often uses a sample of "Deceptacon", the first song on Le Tigre's debut album, as filler when returning from commercial break. The song was also featured in the Girl Skateboard Company's film Yeah Right! (playing during Rick McCrank's skateboarding segment), the freestyle ski film Teddybear Crisis, and Robot Food's Snowboard film Afterbang, thus elevating it to cult status among skateboarders, freestyle skiers, snowboarders, and the like.
