That Ain't Right.


Introducing the Hyperdunk.

I have to say that I was over the Hyperdunk before the damn thing even came out (thanks, Kobe!), but the official print campaign by the dreamboats over at Wieden+Kennedy have me changing my mind. The images are enough to sell the shoe and stake its claim in the marketplace, but the copy adds enough insult to injury to make this my favorite shoe campaign in recent memory.

I won't buy the damn thing, but it's good work nonetheless.

More images can be found here. Also, reactions to the accusations of the ad being homophobic here.

BeKANYE.



"Be someone else. Be Kanye".

Absolut Vodka's BeKANYE campaign is kind of interesting. Kind of. There are print ads and YouTube virals promoting BeKANYE, a ficitional drug that promises to turn its users into the Louis Vuitton Don. The website has a countdown ticking down to the arrival of... something. I guess you'll find out in two and a half days. Until then, I guess you can entertain yourself be seeing bland white folk turn into one of my favorite contemporary rap icons.

BeKANYE might not make a lick of sense, but it sure beats Diddy slanging Ciroc. More of that here.
