When a group of musicians appeared in
a Chevrolet commercial it was Dale Earnhardt Jr who
stole the show. Junior closed out the commercial singing
"Ain't we got Love," -- which was also the title of the
commercial.
The spot 1st aired during the 2007 Super Bowl and
included performances by Big 'n Rich, Mary J Blige, and
rapper T.I. along with several people singing the
praises of their own Chevys.

Dale Jr sang a line from the song "The Jet
Set," by George Jones and Tammy Wynette -- "No
we’re not the jet set. We’re the old Chevrolet
set, but ain’t we got love," as he cruised down
the highway in a red Corvette.
A side note: Dale Earnhardt Jr is part of the
jet set, he owns a
Learjet 60.

Following Earnhardt's part George and Tammy could be
heard in the background singing the verse again.
The spot opens with Mary J Blige singing Foghat's
Chevrolet.

my Chevrolet for your freak parade."
from their hit Save a Horse.

T.I. lays down the lyrics to his song Top
Back by singing "I like my beat down low and my
top let back. Can see me ridin’ 24’s on my
Impala wet black."
He would later join Dale Jr in another Chevy
commercial. T.I. is the artist who trades cars
with Dale Jr, with Jr speeding along in a black
Impala, and T.I. cruising slowly in the No. 8
Chevrolet.

Racer Johnny O’Connell also had a part in the
commercial singing L.L. Cool J's Goin’ Back to Cali.
The commercial was produced by Chevrolet by the ad
agency Campbell-Ewald. Since originally airing on the
Super Bowl the spot is regularly seen during NASCAR
broadcasts and network programming.
The commercial was brilliant in that it included
stars from many cultures, appealing to a wide audience.
