Who Wot Why created an unavoidable earworm with its Wake Shake Boom song and campaign for Moju Drinks – designed to encourage consumers to incorporate the brand’s fiery ginger shots into their regular morning routine.

The infectiously repetitive track revolves around its three-word ‘Wake Shake Boom’ tagline, although there is some respite in the form of a power ballad interlude, delivered by a piece of ginger with googly eyes on the music video version of the song.

The visuals are as madcap as the music, featuring a singing cocktail, a drumming sun, and lots of people experiencing ‘shot face’ – the expression you pull after downing a spicy little beverage.

The campaign appeared on time-sensitive billboards aimed at sleepy commuters, as well as in pre-rolls and social ads. According to Who Wot Why, the campaign “infiltrates the sense of the masses with sound, sight and ultimately taste”.
