Do you remember when Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik by Outkast was the summer’s hottest song? Outkast rapped about “sippin’ on Martell.” It was 1994, the year that the Nike IX’s were the hottest sneaker, or “kicks” out there. Spike Lee, Michael Jordan, and Nike had already teamed up for the Is It The Shoes? commercial.
For many years, sneakers, music, and cocktails have shared a unifying story that have defined decades of culture. Spike Lee has teamed up with four of Pernod Ricard’s spirit brands, Martell Cognac, Avion Tequila, Seagram’s Gin, and Absolute Vodka to host the ultimate party- Sneaker Jam 2015. This weekend, we’ll be “raising a (virtual) glass” on Twitter and in Brooklyn, New York, as we continue to share the story that has impacted all of us. Whether you grew up watching Spike Lee films, wearing Jordan’s, or just love fashion or hip hop, we know you’ll love being a part of this super fun event.
We’ll have influencers in New York reporting live from #SneakerJam15 event while the rest of us join them on Twitter for a late night par-tay like never before.
Join us Saturday, February 14, at 11 pm EST until midnight. It will be epic! And, we’ll be giving out $500.00 in prizes including a $200.00 gift card to Nike.com for anyone that answers all the questions between 11 pm and midnight! To make it even easier to join, we’re sharing the Twitter Party questions before the party.
