I bet the creators of the advert / film / viral branded content thing
knew that this would cause a stir on 313 amongst the "heads"...
and that it would generate buzz
and that people would look at it
and keep Theo.. and adidas, fresh in their minds.
so, they've succeeded. No harm done, right?

There is more reference to Detroit music than there is to Adidas
in the
ad. You could even miss the shots of the trainers and not even
realise
its an advert till the closing image. It's all good.

I agree with Kent. Selling out is about compromising values.
I will also add - An artist has to eat - and it's great that they
have
other means of income other than just make records. Better something
cool like an adidas ad, than say flipping burgers or being stuck
in an
office. Face it, not much $ is being made on making records.
I have NFI really about a grammy. if you get nominated, it'd be
sweet
to get a chance to win one. I'm sure there is a lot of
politicking and
bias etc going on, but if I were an artist and people appreciated my
recordings and nominated me, I wouldn't be complaining. And I dont'
think you'd be either.

btw: i'm still wondering why, but adidas is not the only major
company that discovered theo parrish for their marketing
activities. in april he will be in germany (with omar-s and robert
owens) for a "Coke DJ Culture Tour": http://brandbooking.org/?

We 313ers should all watch it I think.
I did post it to the list over a week ago though.
Keep up! ;-)
