PEPSI: M.C. HAMMER - SWITCH
{31ST INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING AWARDS: 1990}

Summary

In this commercial for Pepsi, rapper M.C. Hammer is shown on stage during a concert. He goes offstage for a moment to cool off with a soft drink, but someone has replaced his Pepsi with Coke. When he returns to the stage, he starts to sing the romantic ballad "Feelings" rather than his usual material. A perplexed fan in the front row hands him a Pepsi and after one sip, Hammer returns to his normal self and starts rapping and dancing all over the stage. Slogan (supered): "Pepsi. The choice of a new generation."
