New Atlanta theme song (hahaaa!)

[araby]

have you heard this? I know Langston and Maeya have. Atlanta's mayor agreed on promoting their city through R&B and hired (what eventually will cost in total around 8 million I think?) Dallas Austin to record a theme song.

It's the worst thing I've ever heard. =\

They make fun of it every day on the radio station I listen to. They wanted people to send in their own songs and had a contest for it, and the advertisment for this contest had this song in it, so I heard it a lot =/

They also paid a team of graphic desingers to come up with a new 'logo' for the city. They came up with the letters ATL in a circle. HOW ORIGINAL.

They needed a 'team' of designers for that?

i remember for Detroit(i think), they spent millions on some piece of shit minority owned marketing firm. they came up with...

Detroit, it's a great place to be!

or something equally as fucking stupid, it's been a while so i'm not sure.
