We’ve built a browser based infographic that visualizes all the mentions of Champagne by U.S. rappers from 1980-2010. The infographic has 3 views: Map View, Graph View and Song View. The slider allows users to choose the range of time they want to look at. The graphic is rich with storytelling: on one hand the image of Rappers & Champagne have a legendary place in pop culture. On the other hand when you consider Champagne as an aspirational product, this infographic tells a nuanced story of Rapper’s relationship to The American Dream. Browse the datavis here.

Deuce Gangsta made the song What About The Move? back in 2005. The song’s authentic rawness inspired us to shoot a video for it in January 07. We had an unrelated meeting with the creative resources manager at MRM (the agency of record for Verizon) in June 07. During our meeting the creative resources manager sent samples of our work to the Creative Director for the Verizon account.

We do hold the Creative Director, the Director and the Art Director who were inspired enough by our hard work to bite our style and use our video as ‘reference.’ Sadly, in the advertising industry this happens all the time. Ultimately, it’s a small thing to a Giant, and we have stacks upon stacks of ideas - next time call us and we might sell you one.
