Recently, The New Yorker asked: “Has there ever been as clear a loser as Drake?” There was a time when Drake stood out in the world of hip-hop not just for his hit-making prowess, but for his vulnerability. But somewhere along the way, something shifted. Badly. Just look at the outcome of the Kendrick feud. Drake’s fallen out of conversation with his audience, and today’s #COMMPRESS is an instruction manual on how you can avoid doing the same 🍾 https://lnkd.in/gtGf3v6G #kendrick #drake #notlikeus

“When everyone is ‘super’, no one will be.” It’s not just a cracking line from Disney’s 2004 animated classic The Incredibles. It’s also an easy cue card for brands in understanding trendjacking. What happens when an initial concept, tagline or phrase becomes so big it loses all meaning? Find out in our latest #COMMPRESS issue now. https://lnkd.in/gNkhmD66 #theincredibles #super #disney #marketing

Not all messages are created equal. Some take on a life of their own… and brands can be anything but demure when jumping on the bandwagon. Read the latest issue of #COMMPRESS to find out how and when to jump on a trend without coming down with the curse of the cool mom 💅 Better yet find out how to lead culture with a message of your own, rather than riding the coattails. https://lnkd.in/gNkhmD66 #trendjacking #demure #brat #newsletter

🟩 Brat summer might be officially over, but how done is demure? 🎀 Internet culture moves fast. It’s no coincidence that these cataclysmic trends seem to be coming and going at an exponential rate, burning brighter than the sun and then crashing in a pit of mediocrity when the references become inescapable. So when should you jump on board to popular messaging? And when do you distance yourself from it? The latest #COMMPRESS jumps in on – and out of – your favourite trending subjects here and now.

🧥 One suit, a whole lotta messages 🧥 Yesterday marked 10 years to the day that then US President Barack Obama’s controversial tan suit took the stage. It also marked almost 10 days since Kamala Harris took the DNC stage in the very same-coloured suit. So what can Harris’ choice to playfully nod to Obama’s “scandal” tell us about convention and, more specifically, when to subvert it? Understanding how conventions compose themselves to drive your audience’s culture – and how you can create messages by adhering to or subverting conventions at the right time – can spark very smart conversations. That’s the latest #COMMPRESS. Read it in full: https://lnkd.in/gXAmqnmx Sign up for more: http://eepurl.com/iDu2dQ #tansuit #brat #bratgreen #convention
