“We Beefin?”

We noticed that Wendy’s, the #3 fast-food brand, kept getting trolled by rival fans and competitors on Twitter. Despite winning the Twitter beef, our fans wanted more. So, we partnered with music executive Archie Davis & Six Course Inc. to create “We Beefin?” a diss-tape aimed at our competitors. @Wendys became the first Twitter account to become a recording artist.
