Manny Faces brandjacks Jay-Z

Posted by Peter on February 11 under Advertising, Business, nextNY

Manny Faces vs Jay-ZJay-Z has launched an ad agency with former Interscope exec Steve Stoute and Interpublic, but apparently forgot to register the domain name. Translation Advertising now points to the site of producer/remixer Manny Faces.

The domain was registered February 8, 2008, by a Michael Conforti of Bannus Media in Freeport, New York. Bannus Media is a marketing/PR agency that has Manny Faces as featured client on its site.

Who is Manny Faces? ‘Remixing Timbaland is a job that takes a brave man,’ New York Magazine says. ‘Or some dude we’ve never heard of. He’s not bad, though.’ The quote is proudly featured on the remixer’s site.

Question now is, what is Jigga gonna do about it?
