Look at it this way did we ever think HP, or Heinkien beer would get jayz as a celebrity endorser or even dj hero…possibilities are endless…google never done something with a celebrity, and music is the best way to engage with a consumer…and they couldn’t move as much units by themselves maybe its cuz of the wireless service they choose, but if at&t picks it up they use mary j blige and mariah carey in they ads I wouldn’t see why they wouldn’t get jayz to promote the product,

This is like those super Internet artist or groups, the net alone will never take a company to the ultimate level, you need terrestrial mediums to move products, Google did not get big from the Internet, it became part of our verbal vernacular based on people using it as a verb, on television, sports and radio

If they want to sale that awesome phone, I know I have used it, but it has bugs to be fixed, I will wait to the Next One (pun intended)

I don’t think Google’s focus is to go after the urban demographic to be honest. It looks like Google produced a phone and released it to the internet exclusively hoping that their power on the internet would drive and market the phone itself. I don’t think doing TV ads or selling in retail stores would be good for them because they don’t have experience dealing those methods. They’re in a secure spot where there are at now and I don’t know if this would work for them.

I agree with what Ocy says and even Davids sarcasim. They arent really orginal, and i think they would haft to have some sort of idea to tie google and the urban market together

Good thinking but it would need to be a much more thorough campaign in order to actually work. Google and hiphop dont really go together from a branding perspective.
