Taco Bell employees turn tables on drive-thru rap shenanigans
Posted on Mon Jun 1 2009Freestyling at the fast-food drive-through has been fashionable lately, and the quick-service clerks must hate it. (Don't pull an Eminem when the person behind you is drooling for that cheeseburger.) This Taco Bell chick, however, fights back in a new spot by Draftfcb Orange County. The ad shows two teens rapping their way through a Taco Bell Grilled Chicken Burrito order: "Don't want to spend dollars, just cents every time. We want grilled chicken for only 89. ... I know I'm talking fast. Did you get all that?" The clerk raps even faster: "Here we go. Watch me flow. Eighty-nine-cent grilled chicken burrito is chicken-licious. ... Hey, you want to keep it going? Let's battle all night." (Her colleague in the back is grooving.) The guys get shamed all right, but not as bad as Rhett and Link.
