Summer Sprite Cold Lyrics Series Packaging

Limited-edition packaging features lyrics from six rappers

Sprite, a brand of Atlanta-based The Coca-Cola Co., announced the release of the Summer Sprite Cold Lyrics Series limited-edition packaging, which features cold-inspired lyrics from six of the hottest rappers in the game, the company says.

The limited-edition Sprite packaging will display lyrics from a talented roster of rap artists, such as Vince Staples, Lil Yachty, DRAM, Vic Mensa, Kamaiyah and Kap G. Each artist was chosen by Sprite because of their unique perspective and reputation for staying true to themselves, it says.

The lyrics will appear on 16-ounce cans and 20-ounce bottles of Sprite and will be available for a limited time in convenience stores and other retail outlets nationwide.

The brand will celebrate Sprite and each of the Summer Sprite Cold Lyrics Series artists on its social media channels throughout the summer by showcasing the “Sprite-sized Endorsers,” which are miniature figurine versions of all six artists, the company says. In Los Angeles, during the BET Experience at L.A. LIVE presented by Coca-Cola this weekend, the “Sprite-sized Endorsers” will give fans special access to the annual entertainment fest via Sprite social channels, it adds. Fans can keep up with the social conversation by following and participating on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #WannaSprite.

From June 26 through Aug. 28, consumers will have the opportunity to win prizes when they purchase the limited-edition Sprite cans and bottles. After each purchase, fans can log on to www.Sprite.com via their mobile device and scan a photo of the 16-ounce can lyric or 20-ounce bottle cap code. With each scan, they can earn the chance to instantly win one of more than 150 prizes each day, including custom Xbox One S consoles, drones, BMX bikes, neon signs, instant cameras, pocket DJ mixers, wireless Bluetooth speakers, and swag from Nike, GameStop, Sprite and more, it says.

The Summer Sprite Cold Lyrics Series is the latest expression of the brand’s Wanna Sprite campaign, which launched last fall. The campaign puts Sprite front and center and gives a nod to what it means to be a Sprite endorser — authentic, transparent and refreshingly honest, the company says. The summer program will be supported with an integrated marketing campaign, including TV, outdoor, radio, digital, social and in-store advertising. The campaign was developed by Wieden + Kennedy New York.
