Symbolically, Coco-Cola, through the Under the Crown campaign, reaffirms its commitment to promoting authentic African music while rewarding creativity and ingenuity in African artistes, both established and upcoming. Again, Coca-Cola, through this campaign, seeks to connect emotionally with its cherished consumers in a long-term relationship and not just a one-off transactional purchase’’ she intimated.
