YouTube Music ad campaign: YouTube throttles progressive into a whole new dimension - TomoNews

SAN BRUNO, CALIFORNIA — YouTube Music started an ad campaign last week with five different videos under the slogan “Music isn’t just what we listen to. It’s who we are.” <br /> <br />The videos feature a cross dressing teen, a rapping Muslim woman, a female parolee, a crying white woman on a plane, and a K-pop-listening Asian teen. <br /> <br />Naturally, it’s gotten the conservasexuals, you know, conservative white dudes, all worked up. <br /> <br />The first video features Alex the cross-dressing teen working at his fast food job, then driving home while getting eyeballed by some yocals in a pickup. After giving pops a high five, he goes into his room to slap on some makeup and put on his best hooker outfit. <br /> <br />The second video stars Afsa, a hijab wearing college Muslim who decides to karaoke rap some Blackalicious while walking down the hallway as other students just walk by like people do that normally. <br /> <br />The third ad stars Tina the parolee doing some community service before she goes to meet her daughter. The only thing we can’t decide is if she’s a white girl or Hispanic. <br /> <br />Number four brings us Kristen. You know, she’s just your typical white girl crying on a plane by herself while listening to some good old R&B. <br /> <br />The final ad introduces Jaysn, an Asian teen listening to some kpop rap as he walks by some hip hop thugs at a subway station. Do they mug him? Surprisingly, no. One of the guys gives him some skin and Jaysn is back on his way.
