Re: Rappers to boycott Cristal champagne
It makes sense, Cristal's target market don't want to be associated with the bling / gangsta lifestyle.
M. Rouzeaud makes sense, and if I am ever in the market for expensive champagne (unlikely, but hey), I'm now going to buy Cristal because Jay Z is just wrongly playing the racist card. Believe it or not, sometimes people dislike you just for being a dick, not because of the colour of your skin. |

PP,
If not racist, they are definitely elitist. I suspect a little of both. J |

Re: Rappers to boycott Cristal champagne
Rappers are only interested in Cristal for its bling factor, not because it is a great champagne. If a champagne called "Dogchit" was the most expensive, they'd be rhyming it with "fog hit",(people have equated drinking Cristal with "drinking fog).

Re: Rappers to boycott Cristal champagne
This is an opening salvo. Expect to see Jay-Z marketing his own brand of high-end sparkling wine a la Armandale vodka.

Re: Rappers to boycott Cristal champagne
Jay Z was anti semitic in one of his songs I seem to remember.
The point is - who cares about racism. It's everyones right to be racist if they want. |
