Per Apex Marketing, Pusha's assistance in their new campaign helped bring in an equivalent of over $8.2M in advertising exposure. The report tracked the success of the advertisement a day after the commercial debuted.
In response to the success, Pusha T hit Twitter with a couple of bars from an unreleased song that he previewed back in January. "'Critics he’s out of his mind, Haters he’s outta his prime…yet, always where the money’s at like lottery signs…' -Self," he tweeted.

Pusha T dropped "Diet Coke" earlier this year before appearing on Nigo's single, "Hear Me Clearly.
