Music And Football – The Ability To Unite

Image via Wikipedia

Music is universal, it’s a language, it crosses borders and still translates, it transcends the power of the spoken word, it’s alive and relevant and like the power of football, music unites.

As I prepare for the Arsenal-Hull match today I remember just last week I was watching Arsenal-Liverpool at the famous soccer bar Nevada Smith's in NYC.

The Arsenal fans pervaded the bar with chants, chants unfamiliar to me but instantly uniting.

Music is a form of a unity. And football is just one way to express it.

Early Wake Up Call

I accidently set my alarm to 4AM, waking up to the sound of my J Dilla alarm ringtone. Little did I know how cool night is at 4AM.

The lights are scattered and bright, in the mold of a new planet. There's new life at night and I was a able to capture it because the music woke me up. The music never sleeps.

Clint Dempsey Freestyle

I'm a big football fan. I support Arsenal because they play in my opinion the most beautiful football in the world.

I also support our American exports. Clint Dempsey plays striker for Fulham Football Club. He's also a rapper from West Texas. In fact, my cousin grew up with him and proclaims Dempsey had legit rhyme skills. I believe it, watch the freestyle in this video.

Added to the Bombincary: Cohort

Cohort

Definition: A group of people who share a similar characteristic or experience within a period of time. Important to marketers to understand when and how these people experienced the defined period as to market to them better.

Example: People who graduate at the same time, born at the same time, even get ill at the same time.

I like to think of it as people who download a song or album at the same time. They talk about it, they relive their experience in finding out about the music and then take an action to buy it. It's what convinced them to consume in the first place and the way in which they buy it (digital or physical) that makes a music cohort.
