You probably noticed this with more & more artists announcing partnerships with brands daily in an effort to appeal to wider audiences and grow their fanbases, or earn nontraditional revenue streams & ultimately take music to the next level while moving urban culture forward. A few memorable instances include Rihanna X Samsung, Justin Bieber X LYFT, John Legend X Stella Artois and most recently Drake X Tom Ford.
