MTV - Bling Bling (2004) commercial

[@xdarkwing104x]

This is a college course in culture and communication. We didn't know how good we had it... 🙏🏾

[@jdng86]

This was the last clever thing MTV did.

This commercial popped up in my head the other day and i had to look it up. Classic!

Whenever your grandparents start using your slang, you know it's officially dead.

[@zenakotaa]

"Woke" would be the newest term to get the gentrified death.

[@georgebernard5783]

It’s even worse than that. “Woke” has been weaponized against the very community who popularized the term

[@ultraisaiah7859]

Rizz, gang, function, pulling up, and cap are more recent ones. Edit: Blud maybe, even the term “the hood”, and so so much more

They should've done this with "swag" years ago...

[@PapagenoJuan2]

RIP bling bling

[@andreastrickland6942]

Mtv used to be so good back then.

This is what happened to the word woke

[@codenamekendall2780]

Tik tok in a nutshell 🤣

[@JadetheGoober]

Karen ruined bling bling ☹️

[@Launchpad05]

Karens ruin everything.

[@OsagieGuobadia]

MTV predicted Karen, the white woman with behaviors.

[@evangelle82]

It's the same with "Twerking"... but most of us (meaning from Urban culture) knew as Rap video girls shaking their booty, with most of the regular black folks not actually doing it. Ugh. Then like 20 years later people started the fad... video taping themselves upside down? No. No. No... and "Fist bumping" .... but most of us knew it as Daps... SMH. PS world: you don't need to announce you are gonna fist bump... you just DO it. LMAO.

[@Dominickudo]

Holy shit someone else figured it out too they’re just taking our words and reshuffling them.

[@jmacsss]

Does anyone know where to find the MTV commercial from this time that is an animated goth girl saying "I'm not trying to be weird"?

[@sonicfan101sonic6]

I been looking for it also

[@jmacsss]

@@sonicfan101sonic6 3 years later, I am still looking. Dude I have searched and searched.

[@ECL28E]

Had no idea this existed.... also had no idea how perfect it is

[@cody7brandon]

Back when MTV was relevant

[@SSJVegeta2012]

MTV died after bling bling died

[@BoosterDuck9]

Phantom Joker no it died when Rob and Big ended

[@xdarkwing104x]

Dead dead

0:18 is literally when it stopped being cool 😂

[@chavesa5]

Is this Brad Neely?

[@ultraisaiah7859]

The fact that this is still going on with most “gen alpha” or “gen z” slang is just… wow.

[@prussianowl233]

A bit before my time but hilarious

[@LeahBandB]

I call this simply: The Progression. LOL

[@xdarkwing104x]

The word "twerk" might go out of style, but the dance never will. I've seen twerking called dozens of names. Even white girls can't kill that ;)

[@2012NuLife]

No the word twerk will never go out of style. It's 25 years old and people still are saying it

[@xdarkwing104x]

@@2012NuLife Some slang makes it past the first few years

[@phillipdagreat8787]

they should do this for white girls twerkin

[@Launchpad05]

As a comedy sketch, yes. As an actual commercial, NO!

[@greg3087]

Maybe we should start saying axe so it’ll vanish too. Seriously why is that the hardest word to pronounce.

[@BranMan10]

“Axe” is how it was pronounced in multiple dialects in England historically. For some dialects, that is the correct pronunciation.

[@trollface1994]

andrea strickland ...a comment so good, it needed saying twice.

[@ellomynameisjohnny]

It really wasn't though. Even in the late 90s it was nothing but terrible cartoons, TRL and reality shows
