NEW YORK, Jan. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Too many Americans are not on track to reach a financially secure retirement. This is especially true for younger generations preparing to enter the workforce or who are starting their careers. In fact, 41% of young adults between ages 24 and 35 do not take advantage of or contribute to their employer sponsored retirement plan. Yet many remain unaware of the extent of the problem–until now. To get people listening, TIAA, a leading provider of secure retirements, teamed up with some of hip-hop's biggest names to create an anthem that spotlights savings and retirement gaps while also combatting them.

Key Points: 
  • In fact, 41% of young adults between ages 24 and 35 do not take advantage of or contribute to their employer sponsored retirement plan.
  • Hip-hop has a long and storied history of shining a light on challenges disproportionately impacting Black Americans.
  • "Paper Right" sparks essential conversations around retirement and encourages action to help close retirement gaps, improve financial education and literacy, and retire inequality for good.
  • Lynette Khalfani-Cox, Sean Bankhead, Fe Noel, Wyclef and Flau'jae joined TIAA's Legacy Makers Booth, inspiring attendees to create their legacies.

Retrieved on: 
Friday, September 9, 2022

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Four of The Beach Boys' most timeless and legendary songs – "Barbara Ann," "Don't Worry Baby," "Wouldn't It Be Nice," and "God Only Knows" – serve as the soundtrack to a stunning, unprecedented four-part video series that builds on itself to become one long narrative when watched in order or can be enjoyed individually. Directed by Andrew Litten, who's worked with Anderson .Paak, Pusha T, and Earth, Wind & Fire, the cinematic story, which was beautifully filmed in South Africa with a local cast of actors, captures what it's like to be young and in love as it traces a high school romance between surfing-obsessed Helena (Zoe Manoek) and Lucas (Toby De Goede), an aspiring photographer who's the new kid in town, and the difficult decisions they each must make as graduation looms and their futures beckon.

Key Points: 
  • Director Andrew Litten said, "A recurring theme throughout The Beach Boys' music is the feeling of being young and in love.
  • I wanted to capture the feeling after your first kiss or how it felt leaving home for college.
  • Each video builds on itself to become one long narrative but it was also very important that each video could stand on its own.
  • In addition to the emotionally engaging story, the videos are filled with several Easter Eggs that pay homage to The Beach Boys legacy.
