It’s always good news when you hear about artists and directors planning “out-of-the-box” creative ideas for their music videos. 50 Cent’s newest video to his single “OK You’re Right” is actually inspired of all things by a Phillips Electronics commercial that was used in a little-known marketing campaign. The commercial is called “Carousel” and was used to hype up their new line of LCD TVs.

Chris “Broadway” Romero actually reveals they got Phillips’ permission to use the video for their own. ‚ÄúWe actually have a partnership with Phillips where they gave us the rights to take this commercial,‚Äù he added. ‚ÄúIt was kinda underexposed. They made a great piece but maybe didn‚Äôt know how to use it that well so we took it and we just taking it way over the hill with a smash record at the same time and the biggest hip-hop artist on the planet.‚Äù
