shots fired. A Trak calls Jay Z samsung ad corny. keepin it real

[OnlyInCalifornia]

While I personally think its a good idea / thought the commercial was cool....

How the fukk do you guys not know A-Trak? We are not talking some obscure DJ either. The guy won the DMCs at a super young age. He's a legend. Step ya knowledge up some of you, smh.

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

It's amazing how furious Jay makes people

 

[Vandelay]

Regardless who he is...who is he!? I could see if j cole, or bleek or someone said but homie is about as relavant to jay's career as state property is...

 

[obarth]

i know you of all posters know what i meant by that


little of that ad drew attention to the product (the app/album), he was just feeling himself a little too much and made a 3 minute ad celebrating himself




jay def in goat contention with me, but i just didnt fukk with this whole ad/move. i'm okay sitting out and being a hater for this one a couple years ago i woulda been at seeing a hip hop commercial like this during the finals



also maybe im just cause jay be rappin kinda , but moreso i thought this was gonna be jay doing some radiohead pay what you want i'm dropping the album independently fukk you to the game shyt. instead its some samsung bullshyt so he can go platinum before the album drops

Fam, I could care less about an app or a phone I just wanna hear the music. I liked Watch The Throne and his performance on that. BP3 was kinda bubblegum compared to the rest of his catalouge. But this nikka Sean has been trending worldwide since that commercial aired, as has Samsung. Advertising in this age of social media is all about getting attention. He achieved that. I'm not about to be or until I hear some bars though

then later you find out if you go online and sign up for their mailing list, first million people will get a free box of cheezits with the new kevin hart dvd in the box. but none of that is discussed during the ad

Where they giving out Cheezits, doe?:stunnadahell:

 

[Smokebreak]

A lot of posts in here are sad as fukk. I dont care for Trak, he's done nothing for me musically but I know who he is..where yall been?

Did he tweet more than that 5 word sentence? if not, you nikkas are getting mad over a dry comment. fukk's goin on in here?

its just an example of how the ad has little to do with the product advertised and tells you little about the overall plan of what's going on

if the analogy aint work so be it



and you did hear some bars off the album 'i just wanna picasso, in my castle en mi casa'

and you did hear some bars off the album 'i just wanna picasso, in my castle en mi casa'

Imma need bars that are more John Blaze then that

 

[TrapHouse Rock]

Imma need bars that are more John Blaze then that

at the end of the day i know im probably wrong for hating on this commercial, but i dont give a fukk



he got the money to make a commercial celebrating himself, that's great that could never be me tho

 

[Awesome Wells]

A-Trak was a DMC champion in his teens.. The youngest ever at the time.

Dude ain't better than Neil Armstrong.

He's a Hollywood DJ now. Neil KILLED that tour for Hov when Just couldn't make the dates. And A-trak lost his job because of it. Facts.

 

[Piff Perkins]

I just hope Kanye's split from the corporate/radio focus of Jay-Z means he'll bless Nas with some heat

 

[Cat piss martini]

This is good for hiphop.
So much talent in that add.

Kanye's new song is featured all over the new trailer for Wolf Of Wall Street starring Leonardo Dicaprio. Yeezus is getting promoted just as hard as any album in recent memory, just in a different way. Buying into the anti-corporate gimmick is laughable.

at Ye performing on a channel owned by GE in his Air Yeezys but being anti-corporate
