SNOOP DOGG TURNS 53 — AND STILL PROVES AUTHENTICITY IS THE BEST MARKETING

20. 10. 2025 | 12 min read On 20 October, Snoop Dogg celebrated his 53rd birthday — calmly, humorously, and with the effortless detachment that has become his trademark. The rapper who helped define the sound of West Coast gangsta rap in the 1990s has become a living brand and a cultural institution. His voice, style, and irony long ago crossed the boundaries of music, transforming him into a figure who can sell sneakers, food delivery, or an entire philosophy of life with equal ease. For marketers, Snoop Dogg is the perfect example of authenticity in practice. In every campaign, he preserves his own rhythm, language, and humour — he never pretends to be something he is not. And that is precisely why his commercials still feel alive even years later: they are not ads about Snoop, but ads that speak in his voice. Cool Comfort Snoop’s public image has always been tied to a generous dose of unrestrained hedonism. Over time, the rapper became the voice of pleasure, comfort, and laid-back perspective — a persona that has been used in more than one advertising campaign. In these campaigns, Snoop usually appears as the viewer’s guide and as an ambassador for products guaranteed to make life more enjoyable. A textbook example of this stylisation is undoubtedly the Did Somebody Say campaign for the food delivery service Just Eat (known in other countries as Menulog or Grubhub). It is a model example of how high-quality food-delivery marketing should be done.

MUSIC DRIVES ADVERTISING PROFITABILITY

20. 10. 2025 | 3 min read A new study by Massive Music and the IPA details the brand and business effects that highly engaging, fitting, and memorable music can have on advertising performance. Why music matters We know intuitively that great music, from jingles to sonic assets, can lodge in our brains in a way that other media doesn’t. But the paradox has been that, for all its power, the use of music has been a kind of alchemy rather than an evidence-based set of ideas that can help make advertising better.

HORROR ENTERTAINING CONSUMERS: TV ADS INSPIRED BY DRACULA

18. 10. 2025 | 8 min read Halloween, the beloved season full of ghosts and ghouls, is just around the corner. Who doesn’t know Dracula, for example? Marketers are well aware of the global fame of the legendary vampire, and they’ve been using his iconic image and vampire symbolism to boost sales for decades — and for good reason. His image is instantly recognisable and universally understood. Now, with the release of the new film Dracula: A Love Tale, the vampire theme is back in the spotlight.
