Premium cognac and liqueur Grand Marnier® has joined forces with Atlanta rapper and entrepreneur 2 Chainz ahead of Cinco de Mayo to introduce The Rouge Room, a digital content series celebrating the power of unexpected collaborations.
At its core, Grand Marnier celebrates Grand Encounters, born out of our proprietary blend of cognac and orange liqueur.
The Rouge Roomacts as a consistent visual space where the brand can bring to life contemporary Grand Encounters year over year.
For the cognac brand, the space serves as the starting point for storytelling and content— a Grand Marnier home where something grand is always on the horizon. By inviting different collaborators to the same space, Grand Marnier charges The Rogue Room with cultural relevance and an expectation of Grand Encounters that are soon to become as iconic as the brand itself. Keep an eye on this space for more.
In the inaugural iteration of The Rouge Room, Grand Marnier and 2 Chainz joined forces blending two distinct worlds, united by a mutual dedication to creativity and passion.
Renowned as one of the most prolific collaborators in the music industry, 2 Chainz embodies the very essence of a Grand Encounter. His exceptional talent seamlessly enhances the work of his partners, resulting in a harmonious fusion of creativity and artistry.
I’ve always been a margarita fan, but I found the secret ingredient that makes the classic even better: Grand Marnier,” said 2 Chainz. “I tried a Grand Marnier Quintessence margarita a few years back on my show ‘Most Expensivest’ and let me tell you that blend of cognac and orange is pure magic. It’s a whole vibe upgrade for your margarita and drink style.”
Step into The Rouge Room, where 2 Chainz takes center stage, showcasing how the blend of Grand Marnier’s key ingredients can elevate the classic margarita to new heights for Cinco de Mayo and beyond.
Filmed completely immersed in rich hues of Grand Marnier red, featuring a distinct texture and pattern reminiscent of a photographic cyc, with hints of liquid-like patterning and marbling infused throughout brings the essence of the Grand Encounter to life through a vibrant setting mirroring the interior of a Grand Marnier bottle.
“Teaming up with 2 Chainz for the launch of The Rouge Room content series allows us to forge deeper connections with consumers seeking new ways to savor and sip Grand Marnier,” said Andrea Sengara, Vice President of Marketing for Campari America. “This series not only highlights the blend of fine cognac and orange liqueur, but also invites consumers to reimagine their cocktail experience, from elevating the classic margarita to sparking inspiration and discovering their own unique ways of enjoying Grand Marnier.”
The creative was captured by director Ray Neutron, an Atlanta native, known for his inquisitive storytelling in both video and photography to create a timeless and cinematic final product.
The work was complemented by visuals from Breyona Holt, another Atlanta-born photographer renowned for her unique approach who has earned recognition in the music industry producing cover art for various artists including SZA and Normani.
While 2 Chainz’s bold look—a custom rouge suit—was curated by stylist Erik Ziemba, a true master of his craft whose extraordinary talent, unwavering passion, and commitment to making a difference have made him one of the industries brightest, collaborating with music icons including Beyoncé and Lil Kim to name a few. Together this blending of creatives from diverse backgrounds built a Grand Encounter in itself, to produce content that truly speaks to how Grand Marnier enhances the cocktail experience.
