She certainly did. She hit me hard as a 14yr old, in 1967, in Australia, as the next best thing in music, after the Beatles.She added so many more layers to modern music. Sensational then - sensational now!!!! AND lm pretty sure we had the same snickers advert here. Love her heaps. PLUS she is an amazing personality as well.
My mother said the same thing. I had told her earlier she was worth 80 million then a couple days later I told her about all the products she shilled for and the first thing she said was "That's why she was worth 80 million" My mother always admired Andy Rooney from 60 minutes because he always said he would never appear in commercials.
leeuwin1962 watch your tone, guess you missed the “if you don’t have something nice to say sone say nothing at all” that was very rude, disrespectful the wrong way to gain attention you were wrong this was someone’s mother , daughter ,aunt , something special to not only her family, the world,firstly God . But you got some nerve to be trolling in these comments .
A lot of the commercials that she did were for products or places that she would go or buy. And the car commercials were a given since she lived and loved Detroit.
Listen to the heartbeat....of ARETHA! RIP to a true artist. The Queen is gone, long live the Queen of Soul, the Queen of OUR Soul! GB and much R E S P E C T and a whole lotta L O V E!
Wow!! I forgot about most of these. Aretha's voice was everywhere in the 80s & 90s. I wish we could have seen more of her acting skills & bits of comedy. She did do more talk shows 2000-2017. This itself showed how she opened up to her fans. One talented lady, indeed!!!😙
THAT RAY CHARLES AND ARETHA COKE AD AT 6:36!!! OH, MY GOD! THEY SHOULD HAVE PACKAGED THAT AD AND SOLD IT AS A SINGLE! IT WOULD HAVE SOLD MILLIONS! MERCY!!!
Yes she did! I truly believe that's why they choose Aretha jus to us all hooked on most of the food, drink commercials back then including the Wheel of Fortune, they're fan base is mainly ppl of color & retirees!
Just watched the video, and you're right. However, Aretha and James on their worst day are better than many on their best day! lol th-cam.com/video/voNTPXEyZto/w-d-xo.html
Best believe if any of those struggling actors got slapped by Aretha Franklin they didn't consider it to be violent. They actually considered it to be a boost for their own careers.
Her Detroit accent w/a southern swing to it voice will be missed by us all but the angels are going to give her a grand stand as she comes marching in serenading her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
RIP Ms. Franklin. You have definitely left an impact and a legacy that can never be touched!! By any means. So glad I was able to know you and all the greats early in my childhood than most. Heaven's choir is rocking with you, Marvin Gaye, Luther, Otis, Sam, Isaac, Barry White, Teena Marie, Lena Horne, Whitney, MJ, Prince, four of the classic 5 members of the Temptations (David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams and Melvin Franklin as well as Dennis Edwards), 2Pac, B.I.G., Bob Marley, and the list goes on and on...Rest in heaven to the queen and everyone now in that beautiful choir.
Just plain AWSOME!!! What A Woman!!! Never saw these commercials and I don't understand why. She was just prolific in her gifts to her family, her community and the world. The Creators example and vessel to reach across all of humanity and I know God is saying to her Well Done my child - Well Done and now come rest your Beautiful Soul, Spirit my Black - DOS Daughter..
She’s so uplifting. I listen to her sing anything and feel happy. Really so unique and irreplaceable. The BEST. Thanks for posting that snickers commercial 😂 and a great human being. although I ve had the great fortune to discover Jennifer Holiday 😍 recently
Wow this was beyond awsome didn't know aretha did all this and the thing that suprise me the most was the wheel of fortune.i always felt that was the most anti black show and to see that she was responsible for there theme song absolutely amazes me.much respects to her whitney never did this no she didn't.always our queen Aretha she was there for black people in commericals when no one else was she was there this beautiful black woman she should have been mrs.santa claus she was a joy to watch always up until her death she never stop performing her last performance was the grandaughter taping her in march just barely holding but she was still playing and singing....Arethas gonna be truly missed bow to the queen and her name is queen Aretha.im left speechless after these commercials ive never seen.just speechless.
Gosh, I remember that cool Pepsi diner commercial & also the Wheel Of Fortune spot. The Pepsi/Coca Cola wars of my childhood. NES commercial blew me away!!
Where do y'all get this stuff from?. It was a lot of companies that wanted her to do things. Like she said "She is a Singer". The commercial business was good, but she wasn't in that business. She has always got RESPECT!!! Still getting it even as she rest in perfect peace. #TheQueenofSoul #TheGoat #Legend ❤👑
all the great artist who changed music opening doors paving the way for todays artist their all gone , without them there would be no Mary J blige no Chaka khan no Alesha keys
Thanks for putting of these together in one clip. I have most of them as separate clips. Do you possibly have the commercial (I think it was Coke) with Aretha and her sisters? It starts out with the announcer, "Erma, Carolyn and Aretha Franklin", with a long, upbeat intro before the singing. It was probably from 1968, maybe 1969. Thank you.
No. That’s sounds fabulous. I had an lp Of coke jingles that I extended and shared on the channel but I haven’t heard that one yet. If it turns up, please paste the link in the comments for this video. I would love to hear it.
Yes, it was terrific. The announcer had a good build up, announcing their names and leaving Aretha to the last. I used to have that one, but I don't see it on my backup drive for some reason. If I see it again, I'll be sure to let you know. And thanks again for putting this video of commercials together.
Nice! And this is only a fraction of the commercials that she did. She did a commercial for Folgers, Amoco Gas, not mention the theme songs to TV shows.
Sad companies didn't want her during the height of her career. The industry still didn't respect her enough to give her endorsement money, the sad history of this country.
Ps I like the wheel of fortune commercial but I have to give an honorable mention for Aretha doing the theme song for" A Different World" while her then husband Glenn Turman stared on the show❤️🖤💚🥰
Wow! I forgot about all of these commercials. She was so much a part of Americana.
Not only did Aretha touch the hearts of many here in Detroit but all over the world as well !! Rest easy Queen of Soul !! 💓🎤💓
She certainly did. She hit me hard as a 14yr old, in 1967, in Australia, as the next best thing in music, after the Beatles.She added so many more layers to modern music. Sensational then - sensational now!!!!
AND lm pretty sure we had the same snickers advert here. Love her heaps.
PLUS she is an amazing personality as well.
America without Aretha is not the same now...
The world without Ms. Franklin isn't the same.
@@Delited2bme I second that.
We still got karen Clark sheard tho!!!! Shhhiiiddddd
Say that!
@Danny Bourne bullshit. I DON'T MISS HER AT ALL. NEITHER DO U
She had so much fun doing commericals and the companies that endorsed her saw major sales in their products.
I never realized Aretha did ads for this much stuff. She certainly wasn't one of those people who looked down at doing commercials. That's for sure.
joeb267382 That’s how she left $80million behind
My mother said the same thing. I had told her earlier she was worth 80 million then a couple days later I told her about all the products she shilled for and the first thing she said was "That's why she was worth 80 million"
My mother always admired Andy Rooney from 60 minutes because he always said he would never appear in commercials.
leeuwin1962 You’re such a loser!

Thanks reelblack for posting this! Rest in peace, Aretha!

I NEVER KNEW SHE MADE COMMERCIALS. SHE WAS ONE SMART GIFTED AND TALENTED WOMEN.
THAT RAY CHARLES AND ARETHA COKE AD AT 6:36!!! OH, MY GOD! THEY SHOULD HAVE PACKAGED THAT AD AND SOLD IT AS A SINGLE! IT WOULD HAVE SOLD MILLIONS! MERCY!!!
True Elbon: Yes indeed!
It would've even gotten a grammy!
I was thinking the same. And the one with her that they played after that one.
I Love Aretha Franklin ❤️❤️
That's when Pizza Hut was good. She knew how to flip her money !!! Smart woman. Sweet Sleep beautiful..
Thank You.
She is the Queen of Soul to All of Us.
Damn! She even had a Nintendo/Target endorsement!!!!
Yes she did! I truly believe that's why they choose Aretha jus to us all hooked on most of the food, drink commercials back then including the Wheel of Fortune, they're fan base is mainly ppl of color & retirees!
Pepsi and Coke? Can anyone else claim this? She really was a force to be reckoned with!
James brown did endorsements for both.
Well, since he was the Godfather of Soul, I guess I can accept that. Not royalty, but close! lol
they even did a song together back in he 80s. gimme gimme gimme. not their best moment, but worth checking out.
Just watched the video, and you're right. However, Aretha and James on their worst day are better than many on their best day! lol th-cam.com/video/voNTPXEyZto/w-d-xo.html
Oh no! Well, I guess that's what makes this wonderful system work. lol
Thank You for posting!
Dd
God...I love Aretha Franklin...talkin', singin'....whatever she was doing; it was great.
I loved her fast food commercials. She soared with them. I loved her Snickers commercial also, lol
That Snickers commercial was HILARIOUS! "Can you feel that?" backhand slap was timeless-LOL!!
Best believe if any of those struggling actors got slapped by Aretha Franklin they didn't consider it to be violent. They actually considered it to be a boost for their own careers.
Wow...this is memory lane
Wow...I think I've fell in love with her. ❤️ The 60s 70s and 90s was beautiful of Aretha...
What happened in the 80s? Haha
So this is the origin of the phrase, "She could sing the phone book and make it sound good!" 🔥 👑 👸🏾
I wish she had done more duets with male singers.
She did with lots of them With Smokey Robinson Luther Vandross George Michael and tons more
This was Beautiful we miss you already RIP QUEEN.
May she Rest In Peace. God bless her ❤️😔
Her Detroit accent w/a southern swing to it voice will be missed by us all but the angels are going to give her a grand stand as she comes marching in serenading her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
A 🌹 is Still A 🌹.
Grand Lady of SouL: The Aretha!
No wonder Coke is still around. Aretha put the juju on it for them.
poppinpoppi1 😂😂
You ain't neva lied lol
There is only one Aretha Franklin. She will always be loved and missed.
That Queen know she can sing!!
thank you so much. Just beautiful... you are special realblack for posting
I miss going to the Cd stores dang
Wow! This is awesome 👏🏿 reel black! Would have been better if Aretha had mad a cameo in the last commercial but ok.
The Queen of Soul! forever!🎵😢😢

🕊R.I.P. Queen of Soul 🕊
Aretha, Ray, & Coca-Cola made my day
Justice Melody I was thinking the same thing!
Things go better with a coke a cola
This was beautiful good job!
Just plain AWSOME!!! What A Woman!!! Never saw these commercials and I don't understand why. She was just prolific in her gifts to her family, her community and the world.

RIP to the mother of soul
I don't even drink pop anymore, but wow.. her duet with Ray Charles has me wanting to run out for a Coke NOW!!! talk about sexxxy!! 🔥🔥
Beautiful tribute
WOW the Mc DLT came out when i worked there in the late 80s,it was their best burger in my opinion.
She’s so uplifting. I listen to her sing anything and feel happy. Really so unique and irreplaceable. The BEST. Thanks for posting that snickers commercial 😂 and a great human being. although I ve had the great fortune to discover Jennifer Holiday 😍 recently
Wish I could find her Smokey the Bear "Only You" radio ad from the '70s. All hail The Queen.
Thank you for this video.
the first commercial is hilarious hahaha hahaha hahaha... caught me off guard!!
OMG! I forgot about the Wheel of Fortune ad!!! That brings back memories @1:35

Her Chevy Commercial off the chain vocals
Where do y'all get this stuff from?. It was a lot of companies that wanted her to do things. Like she said "She is a Singer". The commercial business was good, but she wasn't in that business. She has always got RESPECT!!! Still getting it even as she rest in perfect peace. #TheQueenofSoul #TheGoat #Legend ❤👑

Priceless! Dr. Goready!
Thanks so much for this, it's awesome
WOW!!! SHE DID IT ALLLLLL LOVING IT!!!
Yes indeed a brand all by itself!!!!!
The snickers one is just HILARIOUS

Super bowl ad
I wish they had the years on them! Thanks for this though! 😀
Dr Garretti 🎶🎤🔈🔉🔊🎶💕
Queen Aretha

Sad companies didn't want her during the height of her career. The industry still didn't respect her enough to give her endorsement money, the sad history of this country.
Jesus aretha no respect that is ironic as fuck!!!!!!!-
Ps I like the wheel of fortune commercial but I have to give an honorable mention for Aretha doing the theme song for" A Different World" while her then husband Glenn Turman stared on the show❤️🖤💚🥰
