The Challenge

Hyundai Qatar needed a fresh, attention-grabbing radio ad to promote one of their seasonal offers. The goal wasn’t just to inform, it was to entertain. The brand wanted something that could stand out on air, spark curiosity, and feel distinctly local while staying true to Hyundai’s upbeat global image.

The Process

MusicGrid was brought in to create a full original song for radio. We developed a catchy melody and playful lyrics in Arabic, written to reflect the humor and energy of the campaign. The tone was light, rhythmic, and conversational, blurring the line between jingle and sketch. We handled everything from songwriting and voice casting to production and mixing, aligning with Hyundai’s creative team and agency partners in Qatar.
