From Diageo & Guinness:
Diageo unveiled a bold new Pan African campaign, #madeofblack, via a five hour take over on MTV Base on 27th August. Over a year in development, #madeofblack, part of the global GUINNESS® Made of More™ platform, shines a light on a movement being created by a new generation of Africans whose boldness cannot be contained and who are fuelling a new, progressive spirit of Africa.
A first for GUINNESS and MTV Base, the five-hour takeover featured #madeofblack stunts, guest appearances from Fuse ODG, a MOBO award winning artist, and Phyno one of Nigeria's premier rap artists amongst others. The new GUINNESS #madeofblack commercial was also aired for the first time which features a powerful compilation of African performers, artists and creatives who are filmed expressing their own #madeofblack story and attitude in their own individual way.

As part of the campaign Fuse ODG, alongside the cast of the TV commercial and a wide variety of influencers and ambassadors will share their own #madeofblack stories via a busy social media Selfie programme, which will see well known faces asking consumers ‘What are you made of?’.
Mark Sandys, Global Brand Director, Guinness, said of the campaign, "Guinness is an iconic brand, famous for its extraordinary and inimitable marketing and #madeofblack is no different. This campaign is a celebration of an attitude that epitomises individuals who aren't afraid to truly express themselves. Through #madeofblack we will provide a stage for those who are an inspiration to others as they carve their own path with confidence, flair and boldness."
The new campaign follows the recent successful global launch of the new look Guinness Foreign Extra Stout bottle and will be supported by strategic digital, outdoor, radio and print advertising, which comprises a series of hand painted, impactful designs of key #madeofblack ambassadors sharing how they are #madeofblack.
