YouTube Campaign Celebrates All Kinds Of Diversity & Taste In Music

YouTube Music has released a five-ad series “It’s Who We Are” which features a YouTube Music user emotionally connecting to a song while defying stereotypes.

YouTube’s chief marketing officer told Billboard the campaign will be dropped during the Republican National Convention- “There’s no doubt that these will cause controversy.

“We did a bunch of segmentation around our users and found this set of users who is really our key target market who finds and defines themselves by music.

“We kind of leaned into characters where you really saw that  juxtaposition of the way music is with you at really critical moments in your life and how it helps define you and bring these characters to life in the same way we’re also highlighting this incredible diversity of users and the music we have on the platform.”
