This is hot and fresh from the press, thanks to a tip in our network. Dr Pepper added the new viral music video Cherry Chocolate Rain to YouTube November 28, 2007. The music video is starring Internet icon Tay and Mista Johnson. With this hilaric viral commercial Dr Pepper is celebrating it’s new Cherry Chocolate beverage.
I think the Cherry Chocolate Rain music video reminds me of this song: Oran “Juice” Jones-The Rain. Remember that old skool song from your first R&B moves? It was released in 1986 by Def Jam.
