The boys from the original Budweiser commercial (popularly known as ‘wassup’) video is back after eight years, but now not promoting the alcoholic drink but instead highlighting the current social issues that is affecting americans. Though one is still in front of the tv watching a piece on the economy crisis instead of football, the ad managed to touch on house foreclosures, unemployment, war, medical care, fallen stock prices and a hurricane! At the end, there’s a strong political message though.

It has a sad tone but still creative! The original ad can be found after the jump.


Here’s the original Wassup from 2000.
