Video: Jeezy, Missy E. & Method Man star in Adidas’ first TV ads
In honor of its 60th anniversary, long-time hip-hop supporters Adidas will be launching their first ever U.S. TV advertising campaign and have employed Young Jeezy, Method Man, DMC, Missy Elliott and even Russell Simmons to star in them. The ads will begin airing this week and also feature celebs such as Kevin Garnett and David Beckham mixed with the hip-hop stars. It’s nice to see Adidas stay close to their hip-hop ties after so many years since they teamed with Run D.M.C. back in the early 80’s.
The campaign will run a series of 30 and 60 second spots all focused around meeting together for a big pool party. My favorite is this K.G. vs. Jeezy spot. Check all the ads out here and remember to keep coming back to WoooHa, Inc. for all the latest hip-hop marketing and business info you can handle.

ID like to see KG and Jeezy go one on one, then we will see who will win. Adidas is still relevant after all these years. Thats pretty dayam tough in todays business.

I loved the house party ad out of all of them, because I feel it was done the best, but I do like the over vibe of the ads

Woooha - YOu are bringing it again. Your site has one of the more unique angles to music I have seen and is very original. I came across this from Ad Age and Charlie Moran. Good luck with everything and keet it up.
