“Do I have your attention?”: yes, the song featured in the 2024 Walmart “back to school” commercial triggered everyone’s curiosity.
If everyone talks about it, it definitely worked. It’s how the advertising world simply works, and from that point of view, the flood of comments you see under the Youtube video is just good news for Walmart: their “back to school” commercial has left a mark in the summer of 2024, especially with that catchy song on the background. Do I have your attention? Yes, you do. And everyone wants to know more about the background music.
We owe you an answer, so here you go: the song featured in the 2024 Walmart “back to school” commercial is Attention by Todrick Hall. You can listen to it in full streaming below.
Todrick Hall is an American singer, songwriter, choreographer, and YouTuber known for his work in music, theater, and social media. He first gained widespread recognition as a contestant on the ninth season of American Idol in 2010, where he made it to the semi-finals. However, Hall truly made a name for himself through his YouTube channel, where he has produced and released numerous viral music videos, mashups, and original content that often blend pop culture references with his signature style.
Attention was released in 2019, the first track of his EP Haus Party, Pt. 1. You can call it dance hip hop or techno trap, it’s one of those songs you can’t really frame under a precise genre. This is what makes it so fascinating: the Walmart commercial uses it as the soundtrack of an improvised fashion show held in the kids’ classrooms, showing all the outfits and accessories they will need soon. Of course, everything is available at Walmart, and you know your kids will demand it. Again, it’s how marketing works, you can’t really complain.
Yes, they definitely have our attention. And we are all enjoying the song in its full version now.
