Instagram changed its logo, and apparently the internet has questions.
Actually, the internet has A LOT of questions.
The social media giant recently rolled out an updated wordmark, and one little lowercase letter is getting most of the attention: the “r.”
Yep. The R.
People online have been roasting the unusual-looking letter, comparing it to everything from a backwards character to something that accidentally escaped from another font.
And here at 101.5 The Vibe, we couldn’t just sit this one out.
Why?
Because we’re Tampa Bay’s Only R&B.
You start messing around with the letter R, and now you’re messing with our livelihood.
So we checked.
The R in our R&B is doing just fine.
No emergency meeting. No station rebrand.
No need to change our name to 101.5 The Vibe — Tampa Bay’s Only “&B.”
We’re good.
Instagram, on the other hand? Y’all are on your own.
The bigger question is: What do YOU think about Instagram’s new look?
Is everybody overreacting? Is the new “r” really that bad? Or once somebody points it out, can you never unsee it?
Hit us on social and let us know.
Meanwhile, we’ll keep doing what we do.
Tampa Bay’s Only R&B.101.5 The Vibe.
The Soul of the Bay.
And yes… the R is staying.
