Music in the commercial

Song: Can I Kick It? by A Tribe Called Quest

amazon - People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

Lou Reed's "Walk On The Wild Side" is sampled in this song, and although 99% of what's heard in the commercial is the bassline from "Wild Side" it is distinguishable as the "Can I Kick It?" version. It's the first 15 seconds before the beat and rapping begins.

Description

A Miami street is shown as the camera pans to the right. Then a man enters the frame, only his legs shown. Beneath his feet a basketball court forms.

The full version will start airing during the NBA's All Star weekend (Feb 15-17).

G2 is a low-calorie sports drink that Gatorade is marketing for people to drink off the court to stay hydrated all day.
