Rick Ross, Meek Mills & Swizz Beatz - "Reebok Back" (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

We've seen songs like this in the past trying to promote a product or sneaker but most of them rarely work because it seems forced.  I think this "remix" of Meek Mills and Rick Ross' song "Tupac's Back" is actually not bad at all.

The insertion of Reebok in the hook doesn't sound forced and for the most part, you wouldn't really know it's different than the original unless you were paying attention.  I think that is what they were going with so that it was a little more subliminal.  I could see this being put on heavy rotation in the videos used in sneaker stores and then like a bunch of zombies, people start heading for the Reeboks and don't even know why.  Well, that's the goal anyway.

Here's the original song "Tupac's Back" which is a solid joint that gets the trunk rattling.

And here is another look at the Swizz Beatz x Reebok Kamikaze joints that have been hitting stores in limited quantities over the past few weeks.  A lot of people might hate on these but I am a huge fan.  I love the crazy design, funkiness and dope colorways.  The original Kamikaze was my high school basketball shoe and was also one of my all time favorite Reeboks so it's nice to see a new and updated version of the shoe.  If I could actually get my hands on these I would buy them in a second but it sounds like they are sticking with the limited strategy, at least for now.  Maybe my Reebok connection can hook me up with a pair please?!?!
