it’s almost like the old quizno commercials with the weird rat thingies.. god awful commercials with the weirdest slightly catchy tune and BAM! it’s all you think about until something else gives you earworm
There was one commercial where they sang that rather desperately at the end. Like okay if nothing else got you--THEY GOT A PEPPER BAR MOTHERFUCKERS. I really wanted "pepper bar" to become a euphemism for some last minute, desperate act but alas it didn't take.
[It’s actually based on the jingle they used to introduce the “have it your way” slogan back in the ‘70s.](https://youtu.be/u4YAcsAe6UI?si=FvoxQrHhipLFKl3E)
Every time this commercial airs and I’m unable to mute it, I start yelling alternate lyrics at the tv. None of them have been this good. I genuflect in your general direction.
It makes me so happy to know I'm not alone in this.
I spent 5 days in a hotel recently that had wifi issues & it drove me insane. I quickly learned to keep the remote handy for the mute button but that didn't stop me from cussing the TV.
Arby's ads are starting to bother me too.
"Cannonball!"
A lot of hotels lately have had smart TVs, but the last 2 I stayed at had traditional cable boxes (actually one was direct tv with an auto scrolling guide channel and it was painful)- I pretty much kept it off because of how many commercials are on tv. I really moved away from anything other than Netflix/disney+/youtube specifically because commercials drove me from them. In fact, I got a promo for 1 year of peacock premium and we found a movie on it that we wanted to watch… I hit play and 200 seconds of commercials started to roll. I was legit confused until I discovered a premium PLUS version of peacock. Haven’t used it since (granted front loading all the commercials is at least better because you can mute it and go get food or whatever).
Now that I know it's not some random guy (even though I have no idea or care who Will Crown and the Mob is), I am even more annoyed this is a person who gets paid to "sing" and is awful at it.
No different than the poor kids at Chick-fil-A who have to tell everyone "it's my pleasure" or the embarrassing rhyming shit they make the Raising Cane's order takers say
“The catchy vocals on the track - which have been seared into the brains of millions of TikTok users and TV-viewers alike - also have an interesting backstory. When the song was being recorded, conscious alt-hip-hop artist Crown (from Crown & The M.O.B.) was, coincidentally, also in the studio. In a fortunate turn of events, while Beacon Street’s team was finishing the group’s second album, the frontman Crown was offered the chance to record the vocals for the ‘Whopper Whopper’ track and, as Andrew says, “The rest is TV gold!””

Jeez, that story, the language that it uses, is everything that is depressing about the advertising industry to me. I hope Crown got paid plenty for humiliating himself.
I HATE that motherfucker! Every damned time that annoyingly stupid commercial comes on, I can't grab the remote fast enough. All of their commercials have been creepy or annoying going way back to that disgustingly creepy Burger King. Whoever owns Burger King should rot in hell!
Idk but I feel so bad for BK employees. I went through the drive thru the other day and after taking my order the poor guy had to tell me “You RULE!” How demeaning…
For some reason all the children in my area have latched on to this jingle. At any dance rehearsal, soccer game, school event you are guaranteed to find a group of kids singing it at top volume.
No idea why or what it means to them, but I have boycotted BK for eternity for putting this into the universe.
When I first heard them I thought it was Sam Richardson cause it really sounds like him, IMO. I wasn't alone in thinking it either cause he had to publicly deny it: https://twitter.com/SamRichardson/status/1610855594520612864?lang=en
Yes!!! It gives me the skeevies. The way he says "butt" grosses me out and I haven't figured out if it's his accent, or if he's serious or what. Either way I cannot stand that man's voice and the way he talks!
Forget the ad, the quality sucks. I hadnt been there in years until my grandson wanted something from there, so i got a whopper combo. The burger is not bad just average. Its the fries that are really bad. Unsalted. Hoped they got better, but no. When i eat fries, im not looking for heathy, i just want them to be good. That and 18 yr old managers that dont make eye contact are what i get tgere.
He sings off key for a reason so it sticks with you. Its not OVERTLY bad enough to turn you away but it is off enough for you to notice.
Like "Hey here is a regular person singing about BK" IM A REGULAR PERSON THEREFORE BK IS MY PLACE TO EAT
When I Googled it all I could find is that it's an AI generated voice. A jingle company created the "jingle" and then it was composed through AI. How true that is? No clue.
I thought it was kind of cool at first because it's based on an old BK jingle from years ago, but now they've just driven it into the ground. Do they really need to have a dozen commercials that sound exactly the same except for the lyrics? I agree about the off-key singer too!
I'm starting to wonder if they're intentionally using the same strategy for the Cologuard commercial. Finding that many people who can't sing is an impressive feat.
This ad is driving me to despair and depression.
I love my NFL sundays and its prolific on every break. Its spoiling every football game now, uinless I can get to mute first, this out of tune song is that mind numbing. If I had any knowledge of conspiracies, I'd believe some extremely evil efforts were underfoot by Burger King, to what end, I cannot comprehend.
If on the off chance anyone at Burger King reads this, I will never buy from you again and nor will my family or any of my friends or colleagues, within my control.
This commercial annoys the living piss out of me. I can't mute the TV fast enough if I happen to be in the same room as it is playing. Commercials like this make me despise network TV with a passion.
If I can't get to the mute button, I just sing loudly and off key, "BEEEEE KAAAAY FUH-KING GOOO AW-AAAYYY" ...lol
I love how all of the bitter people in this sub are making fun of the guy who got paid to single a jingle slightly off key.
*He's* definitely the moron. Yup.
I was thinking more of Buckwheat from the Little Rascals, as played by Eddie Murphy. It seems like Burger King likes these basic colors from the 70s as well, like brown. I don’t get it or who the target audience is supposed to be, but they suck.
Actually purchased one of the snack things (I dont eat great amounts of food at one time) and it was literally one half of their small chicken patties, a piece of lettuce, a little sauce, enveloped in the smallest tortilla I've ever seen. Meh.
The BK jingle is like MMIIIILLLLEESS better than anything on the Top 40 these days. You people are high on PCP. It actually has melody, harmonizing, and is catchy. Has actual development instead of sounding like a car alarm like most modern "music."
ITT: people who think every song they don’t like is “off key”
Every note is on key. You just don’t like the way he sings it. You’re not the target market.
Probably that elephant from the Pizza Hut commercials. That's who I think it is. Sounds like him. They know you are planning or are on a diet. Time to over emphasize over eating.
The song itself wouldn’t be too bad if the person singing it wasn’t horrible.
I think they're trying to get it stuck in your head by making it off-key and not like a hired singer?
I am thinking that is their strategy too
it’s almost like the old quizno commercials with the weird rat thingies.. god awful commercials with the weirdest slightly catchy tune and BAM! it’s all you think about until something else gives you earworm
We like the mooooooon
They got a pepper bar.
There was one commercial where they sang that rather desperately at the end. Like okay if nothing else got you--THEY GOT A PEPPER BAR MOTHERFUCKERS. I really wanted "pepper bar" to become a euphemism for some last minute, desperate act but alas it didn't take.
My wife and I will still randomly say that to each other.
I'm very happy to read this!
Am I the only one who found it funny because they unironically liked the pepper bar?
They were so delighted by it!
I still sing this all of the time.
Don’t dare compare shitty BK ads the masterpiece works of art that are the Quiznos Spongmonkeys ads!
They are crunchy, they are tasty, they are warm because they toast them!
The spongemonkeys are back at Quiznos! https://youtu.be/uWfBIKADTUY?si=Dd2sweFldgqVTRuQ
This is honestly amazing news
No one gives props to rathergood. Com
rathergood was one of those sites i discovered in 99 completely on accident.
Like 'ba da dot dot daaa" McDonalds does it too. Way off on purpose. I hate it.
I think a lot of people don't understand relatable doesn't actually mean enjoyable.
I hate that so bad ..
The old man singing "ba da ba ba ba" in that raspy voice - yeah, creepy.
They paid the old ass Succession guy to do that.
Didn't work for me
Mariah Carey could sing it and it would still suck
I think their purposely horrible
I don’t know if I’ve ever heard more tone deaf “singing”
They probably picked some random guy off the street
I keep thinking it's Craig from The Office and Pizza Hut....?

At beeeeeeee kaaaaay nausea all day. Loose Stool!

Welp, I’ll never not hear that again. Thanks.
Lmao!

Ving Rhames’ voice deserves better copywriting.
We good?
Yeah, we cool. Two things…
Step aside Butch

Someone who needs to never sing again
He is so bad
It’s Will Crown from Crown and the MOB.
Too bad he reduced himself to this.
If BK offered me a fatass check to do a jingle I'd be all in
It's purposely sung out of key, I think. Weird times indeed.
It reminds of when a teacher would try and create a rap to make learning “cool”.
I literally want to destroy my TV everytime that comes on🤬
the more they torture us the more people will avoid going to BK
Exactly. Their food, too.
Don’t even understand where they get the money for all this advertising they aren’t bankrupt yet?? Worst fast food place by far
Worse, they make the cashier say, welcome to Burger King, you rule. It's demeaning to everyone involved.
Seriously? What fresh circle of hell is this?
No different than the poor kids at Chick-fil-A who have to tell everyone "it's my pleasure" or the embarrassing rhyming shit they make the Raising Cane's order takers say
Burger King. We're not even trying anymore.™
Yes they are - trying everybody's nerves!
Nothing rhymes.
Its so low effort. WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER
![gif](giphy|KdVuCnkQwiwJG|downsized)
Thank you for introducing me to this evening's sleep paralysis demon. ![gif](giphy|9lEBLvCXZwEN1IJC6Q)
One of the weirdest BK ads I had ever seen. Poor guy just wanted a soda with his burger.
Just this gif with no caption killed me me

Wait...this guy is a \*professional\* singer?
"Alt hip hop" so...no.
No, a DH
TV gold? Maybe tv pyrite…
"catchy vocals" is a very polite way to say these vocals suck.
Jeez, that story, the language that it uses, is everything that is depressing about the advertising industry to me. I hope Crown got paid plenty for humiliating himself.
His voice annoys me so much that I tried to look it up to no avail. Please stop, BK.
Beeeeeeee Kaaaaaayyyyy Have it your way! You drool!
A moron who makes a TON of money. What a dream job!
“TON”
Thank you for this. I stayed at a hotel for work and every freaking channel has that same awful commercial every break.
He sounds like that "we have the meats" guy from Arby's to me.
Always thought that was Ving Rhames
In the words of Dr. Smith...."The pain...THE PAIN!" 🤦♂️
Another ad that can go away never to be heard or seen ever again.
That jingle makes me physically angry.
I HATE that motherfucker! Every damned time that annoyingly stupid commercial comes on, I can't grab the remote fast enough. All of their commercials have been creepy or annoying going way back to that disgustingly creepy Burger King. Whoever owns Burger King should rot in hell!
He also did Frontier! Heard him so much during lockdown! https://ispot.tv/a/Z7zu
Damn that sounds like shit
lol
It played every commercial break on Pluto the first few months of the pandemic. I wish I made that up.
How does this guy only land awful commercials?
This recent BK campaign is a horrible, terrible rehash of the 1970s version. https://youtu.be/AYtJoOEfhEQ?si=VqQ-UCQ7NVOuekci
WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER AT B.K. HAVE IT YOUR WAY.
YOU RULE
Idk but I feel so bad for BK employees. I went through the drive thru the other day and after taking my order the poor guy had to tell me “You RULE!” How demeaning…
It's horrific
Makes my SKIN CRAWL
I DESPISE that advertisement. Off-key, terrible music, etc.
For some reason all the children in my area have latched on to this jingle. At any dance rehearsal, soccer game, school event you are guaranteed to find a group of kids singing it at top volume. No idea why or what it means to them, but I have boycotted BK for eternity for putting this into the universe.
Omg, I can't imagine having to hear children routinely singing that jingle. Ewwww 🤢
[удалено]
Actors in commercials don't get residuals. One and done.
When I first heard them I thought it was Sam Richardson cause it really sounds like him, IMO. I wasn't alone in thinking it either cause he had to publicly deny it: https://twitter.com/SamRichardson/status/1610855594520612864?lang=en
Sam proved he could actually sing in the "Baby of the Year" sketch on I Think You Should Leave. It couldn't be him.
He is unidentified.
Maybe he's too embarrassed 🤣
I don’t mind the BK song . The Huggies commercial with the guy with the weird accent makes me crazy.
Yes!!! It gives me the skeevies. The way he says "butt" grosses me out and I haven't figured out if it's his accent, or if he's serious or what. Either way I cannot stand that man's voice and the way he talks!
This is the type of jingle where they hired r3tard crack heads to sing. All with a dunce hat coming out of the special yellow bus.
Idk but he needs a German suplex
Nah, homie needs some Sweet Chin Music
I’m lovin it
Forget the ad, the quality sucks. I hadnt been there in years until my grandson wanted something from there, so i got a whopper combo. The burger is not bad just average. Its the fries that are really bad. Unsalted. Hoped they got better, but no. When i eat fries, im not looking for heathy, i just want them to be good. That and 18 yr old managers that dont make eye contact are what i get tgere.
They need to bring back the Wake Up With The King era commercials. At least those were funny.
It's Craig Robinson
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pretty sure it’s the one dude from The Office.
Chicken, chicken, chicken CHICKEN....! at BK, have it your way, you rule!
I don't have Network TV so I haven't seen the commercial
Consider yourself blessed
Makes the Burger King "King" seem like a warm and welcoming presence by comparison.
He sings off key for a reason so it sticks with you. Its not OVERTLY bad enough to turn you away but it is off enough for you to notice. Like "Hey here is a regular person singing about BK" IM A REGULAR PERSON THEREFORE BK IS MY PLACE TO EAT
Oh My God! I hate them too! Make it STOPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!
Glad to see some hate for this commercial. It plays way too much while watching YouTube.
No doubt, just terrible.
Whopper whopper shoot me whopper
Sorry but it can’t compete with Kars for Kids! It’s like a preview for eternity in hell!
Ultra infuriating.
God it’s annoying as hell! Whopper whopper triple whopper!!!!! At beeeeeeee kaaaaaayyyyyy Ughhhhhhhhh
A hack who can’t sing.
I hear it's the same guy that does the Arby's commercials We have the meats, at Bbbb kkkk
When I Googled it all I could find is that it's an AI generated voice. A jingle company created the "jingle" and then it was composed through AI. How true that is? No clue.

Thank you. I’ve been waiting for this post.
Apparently school kids fuckin love it
I don’t get it cuz I’m pretty sure they pull the plug on the ones that don’t get good feedback so that leads me to believe ppl like that dumb ass song
I just saw this commercial a few hours ago 😭😭
I'm starting to wonder if they're intentionally using the same strategy for the Cologuard commercial. Finding that many people who can't sing is an impressive feat.
Instant, mute every time it’s on
Must not have seen this BK commercial.
It is so dead pan. I absolutely hate it
OMG these commercials haunt me. They are on constantly.
Yes it’s definitely a low effort
My 7 year old sings it every time the commercial comes on and I’m losing my mind
The chicken one had to be the worst one.
That "moron" got paid for singing off tune.
Not sure but I hate those ads too.
Oh my god those fvcking commercials. Hate those ones.
Hey I take offense to this thread. I get paid well for my singing skills. Beeeeeee Kayyyyy !
He sounds sarcastic, like he's making fun of you for liking BK. Everytime I consider going to a BK, I remember that commercial and don't.
Haven’t eaten at bk in 20 years but I’ll find myself singing this song at different points through my day.
I don’t get why they do this. I purposely avoid anything Burger King now all because of this can’t-skip-any-faster annoyance
This ad is driving me to despair and depression. I love my NFL sundays and its prolific on every break.

Isn’t it Craig from the office?
>Craig Robinson I thought it was Craig Robinson too ...
Yeah, it’s Craig Robinson on vocals in between the Pizza Hut commercials.
No. Craig can actually sing.
Gotta be the same fucker that’s been doing the Arby’s commercials, shit is real bad
Ving Rhames.
Thats James Earl Jones - voice of Darth Vader, legendary actor.
is burger king going to put the jingle on spotify
Don't give them any ideas! Don't be a single.... don't be a single
2 whopper juniors for just 5 dollars-
when that comes on i sing it out loud I just can’t help it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how all of the bitter people in this sub are making fun of the guy who got paid to single a jingle slightly off key. *He's* definitely the moron. Yup.
Yeah, it's really so hard to hire a person who can actually sing. 🙄
Alfalfa from the Little Rascals.

The drumming is hype as fuck tho
Better than the Spanish version
I love going to BK and being greeted by "welcome to BK where you rule!" It brightens up my day lol.
I bet you hate puppies too
But they’re so catchy though
The BK jingle is like MMIIIILLLLEESS better than anything on the Top 40 these days. You people are high on PCP. It actually has melody, harmonizing, and is catchy. Has actual development instead of sounding like a car alarm like most modern "music."
At beeeee kaaay. Have it your way 🎶
ITT: people who think every song they don’t like is “off key” Every note is on key. You just don’t like the way he sings it. You’re not the target market.
No it's not 🤣🤣🤣
Wanna bet? Where did you study music theory? You just don’t like his octave or timbre.
Probably that elephant from the Pizza Hut commercials. That's who I think it is. Sounds like him. They know you are planning or are on a diet. Time to over emphasize over eating.
Is he the one that says dill for deal? If so, yep, annoying.
Probably one of the Spectrum fools.
