Porter made a music video remix of the original Slap Chop infomercial, dubbing it "Rap Chop". After posting it to YouTube on April 25, 2009, it quickly spread over the internet to become famous. As of July 24th, 2009, it has been viewed 4,135,987 times, reached #16 as the all time Top Rated, #3 all time Top Rated in Comedy, #14 Most Viewed and and #1 Top Favorited. In July 2009, in an apparent deal between Porter and Shlomi, the "Rap Chop" was made into a real infomercial that began airing nationwide. Porter's original remix included footage from the movie Breakin'. However for the national infomercial, the Breakin' footage was replaced with a female break dancing and someone dressed in a pink bunny rabbit costume dancing. This was due to the fact that the rights to use the Breakin' film footage either couldn't be obtained or didn't want to be obtained. Additionally, the success of Porter's "Rap Chop" remix landed him a job doing remixes for FedEx.
Porter followed up his successful "Rap Chop" music video remix on May 15, 2009 with a music video remix of the original ShamWow! infomercial, dubbing it "Jam Wow".
