That's why they are losing sales! Guys like me hate everything that is associated with Rap and Hip Hop artists.

And people like me think that Country muscicans are nothing but drunk cowboys....

And you do realize that the Esclade and CTS being featured in rap videos is what made Caddilac so pouplar in the first place right?

I'm actually into Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, but I don't mind listening to Country music now and then.

They will always have sales of fans like you, but they need younger buyers to check them out.

Says the guy with Imus as his avatar...typical.

The rap/hip hop scene makes a huge impact on the younger generations. The kids want Escalades and H2s on 24inch chrome wheels because of these music videos..and while it may not be in your taste, or even mine..id rather them want some domestic cars then toyotas or hyundais.

The vehicles in music videos makes a greater impact then anything Scion can put in their commercials.

It's a good thing man...you cant force people to like what you like, but you can get them to desire something if you bring it fourth in a fashion they are attracted to.

It's capitalism. I'm sure, for a certain price, 50 would feature Dog **** in his next video.

The T.I video did a better job advertising the Esclade.

Song sucked balls, and the cars were more of a prop than him acually enjoying the car.
