Background
The rap scene is on the rise in Egypt, just as Pepsi was getting ready to launch the boldest tasting cola in town with two flavors: Lime and berries, and zero calories. Such a daring product needs to be marketed to an equally bold target. And can you think of anyone bolder than Gen Z?
Featuring their favorite up-and-coming talents; Abyusif and Marwan Pablo, we joined a conversation that Gen Z has already been having on social.
Describe the strategy
Following a social film that featured two of Gen Z's top favourite Egyptian Rappers/Trappers;
Abyusif and Marwan Pablo, Pepsi begins with a digital activation that went through 3 phases:
1) The interviews: Getting up close and personal with Abyusif and Marwan Pablo to get to know what being bold means to them.
2) Short videos: That are from the POV of the rappers. The main objective behind those videos were to highlight the two new flavours of the product.
3) Rap Challenge: That was launched on TikTok and Instagram through PEPSI’s, Abyusif’s & Pablo’s social media platforms encouraging the consumer to be part of the movement and be the voice of their generation.
Describe the execution
To reach Generation Z, we had to find them in their own playground, where they spend the best part of their days; Online. So our content was put up on different platforms to ensure that we reach them wherever they might be.
And with a fast pace and attention span like Gen Z's, we had to find a quick way to grab their attention; simple interviews with their two favorite rappers and other talents, and engaging snackable content featuring their new preferred method of self-expression; Rap.
We even challenged them to show us what they've got and we've created a hashtag just for them. If you open #BeBoldWithPepsi you see (and hear) the boldness of this generation.
