although i don't listen to hip hop much anymore, I RECOGNIZED ALL THOSE SONGS!! Hell yeah Apple, using tracks from when I was in middle school =]
I don't mind commercials where they are only half telling you the truth, but the amount of buzz that Apple music lacks within a short period a few days of coming out Apple just wants people to sign up for it is the only reason for the ads.
The only one i know is Phil Colins..
I'm taking "the" music and running like hell
because i can..... (my little secret i know abut DRM)

No offense, but I think they used the songs they did because the ad was aimed at soccer moms
I LOVE LOVE this AD!
This one is not for the bros or techies is for the common users. People who watch the Emmys.

does not seem very Apple-like to me. I'm not saying it's bad. But it's loud, a bit hectic, explains a lot and has a lot of text... compared to the typical more simplistic ads that's very different.
You know why it may have felt like an Samsung commercial? Because Samsung copies all of Apple's commercials. Henceforth....
That's definitely your phone carrier that's having problems. I have had ZERO drops in Music while driving and I drive daily and all day for a living. Today I did a two hour drive straight and let Music play on it's own and not a break in the sound.
It's not about obsession. It's a great and fun ad with some very popular and recognizable ladies that are on TV and the music business.
No, black ladies + hip hop equals reality. I suppose you prefer to see 3 black ladies (with 2 of them I know that grew up in the hood) listening to heavy metal or country?
The article's title is "Everyone's obsessed with this Apple Music commercial..." You should write a comment over there if you disagree with it.
Really? I don't see that in the article attached to this thread. I see this;
EDIT: Nevermind. My bad. I see what you were referring to.
The article I posted, the one that you commented on was this one: http://www.ew.com/article/2015/09/20/apple-music-commercial-mary-j-blige
Why.....yes....lolNo, black ladies + hip hop equals reality. I suppose you prefer to see 3 black ladies (with 2 of them I know that grew up in the hood) listening to heavy metal or country?
I love that Ava DuVernay directed it. She is my newest obsession.
"Washington goes a step further and says that Apple's curated playlists are like having a boyfriend creating you a mixtape."
Except of course your boyfriend can't create you a mixtape in Apple Music unless you're using the same computer and the same Apple ID (which is against Apple's terms and conditions). Perhaps it's possible in the family plan? Because the curated playlists are, at best, your creepy neighbour creating you a mixtape.

With that new iPhone commercial I thought Apple was getting back to good commercials again but this one is just terrible. I'll bet there's a separate Beats team doing Apple Music commercials and they're not coming out of Apple's marketing shop.
it lags even in the commercial
Are you referring to the interface or the latency with the music starting?
If you're referring to the music starting, you realize it's coming from another part of the world, right?
When I lose cellular signal, my phone stops playing local music.
