I really never post this kind of stuff but after I came across an article online saying how PepsiCo has pulled the ad off the internet due to public outrage, I was determined to find it. Took a damn long time, but for those of you who wanted to see it here it is:

Video's at the bottom. And no I don't ever go onto those sites, it was literally the only place it was still uploaded...

Opinions? I feel it is kind of bad, but not to the point where people are going all ape shit on Pepsi for "the most racist commercial ever", or "making light of domestic violence"...

And I apologize if this isn't the correct forum, I couldn't tell whether this would be better on General Discussion or this sub forum..

I don't really see it THAT racist, although it didn't really portray Mountain Dew other than him drinking it.

This is a new generation. You would think people would stop pulling the "Race Card"

Did Tyler the Creator ever say that he thought the commercial was racist in the first place? Since he made the video, I don't think he was trying to be racist but just trying to use his own kind in the video since he himself is black.

I love Tyler, the Creator. I don't see how people are finding this racist, I sure don't.

Tyler said himself that he found goats funny so he put it in there & then said he thought talking goats would be funnier so he did that too. I don't see a problem with this.
