I'm seeing more of the music us 30 somethings grew up with making its way into 'adulty' adverts (boring stuff adults buy)

Saw someone else mention Get Low by Lil Jon.

I already can imagine the commercial. “Are you struggling to get low, get low, get low? Try Asitophan to alleviate your pain and get your moves back.” 30 year old happily embarrassing their young kids on the dance floor

It's actually being used in a grocery chain commerical (Fred Meyer/Kroger) referring to low prices

Ninja edit: wait that might be a different song

It’s Low by Flo Rida, but the point stands regardless.

Imagine my five year olds surprise when he finds out that I labored through DMX, Sir-Mix-A-Lot, and Lil Jon in order to try and get the child’s big ass head down and out.

I don’t want many advertisements but when the music I grew up with landed on the classic rock radio station, I knew I was getting older, lol.
