Sprite has been repping urban culture for years in their campaigns. From memorable commercials like Grant Hill’s famous “Grant Hill drinks Sprite” line to the female emcee backed “Five Deadly Venoms” campaign. It comes as no surprise, then, that they’ve finally put Hip Hop lyrics on some of their cans. Not only is it a check for these artists or their estates, but it serves as further proof that Hip Hop is the culture that we’re swimming in right now whether you like it or not.
