Red Bull, known for its deep connection with contemporary music, is launching an accelerator Red Bull Amplifier created to aspire musicians. The programme is open to the EU residents and doesn’t involve any financial support for the participants—rather, they get an access to the Red Bull’s global audience on social media channels and the brand’s properties. The brand handles this project in collaboration with incubator innovation consultancy Sidekick Studios.

Coca-Cola’s Relentless Energy Drink brand has released its first commercial starring rapper Professor Green, who was announced its ambassador earlier this summer. The musician, who last year also became the face of PUMA, is an ideal match for the energy drink since he embodies the product’s bold and rebellious spirit and attitude, and this is reflected in the advert, which aired last week.
