Unilever’s Old Spice has been ratcheting up the new product development recently, with new scents, sprays, soaps, shaving gel and hair products, all of them launched in typically absurd and generally very entertaining fashion by Wieden + Kennedy. Now Terry Crews, the long-time sinewy, shouty ambassador, is back to launch a new range of electric razors.
While most think of Isaiah Mustafa on a horse when they think of the Old Spice guy, Terry Crews was there earlier on, flexing his pecks and yelling a lot. And he’s back for more with a brilliant—and suitably surreal—interactive Vimeo clip made by Wieden + Kennedy called ‘muscle music’, where different instruments—including a “flame sax”—are played through Crews’ rather rhythmical flexing. Pfff, V Motion Project. But wait. There’s more. After the vid is finished users can perform and record their own song with the keyboard.
