The 10 Illest Hip Hop Commercials Lyrics by Duke London

2013

I was watching some NBA games last night and saw the NBA 2k14 commercial with the infectious KRS-One sample that's been stuck in my head for weeks. It got me thinking about other great Hip Hop ads. As Hip Hop and pop culture have become intertwined over the last few decades, the genre has continued to be used by advertisers to get our attention and add a certain "grittiness" to their campaigns. Do they use it to target a certain segment of the population? Sure. But as the late philosopher T. Shakur once penned, "I ain't mad at cha". Because hip hop has now given us some of the most iconic commercials of a generation. Oh, what's that, you say? You can't remember some of the best? Well, let me get my BuzzFeed on for a few then...
Click each number of the countdown to reveal the 10 Illest Hip Hop Commercials (of somewhat recent years, I'm not trying to do any MC Hammer commercials from the 80's) I ranked these not only by how much they got stuck in your head, but by the "OOOOOHHH" factor, which is exactly what it sounds like...
Honorable Mentions:
10. This Bro Got Way Too Amp'd Up At Work
9. That's the Ticket Right There Kid
8. What Would Yeezus Do?
7. A Symphony in C...urtis
6. Where You At?!
5. Hip Hop Goes Hollywood
4. Malt & Pepper
3. Motor City Marketing
2. A Blueprint For Advertising
Drumroll please...
1. AY AY
Obviously we won't all agree, but feel free to hit me up with suggestions of ones I may have missed!
