In the latest extension of Pizza Hut’s “Adultzz Only” campaign, .Paak is trading the stage for the office — and the kitchen — as he steps into his playful alter ego, Dr. .Paak, PHD (Pizza Hut Degree). His mission? To help his other funky, free-spirited persona, DJ PeeWee, overcome his pizza-related struggles with the irresistible flavor of Pizza Hut’s new Crafted Flatzz™. You can view the campaign here.

In true .Paak style, the collaboration is all about good times and great food — and now fans can join the fun with a chance to earn their very own PHD (Pizza Hut Degree) and claim one of 777 free Crafted Flatzz™ pizzas*. Starting at 11am CT today, DM the word “PHD” to @pizzahut on Instagram and the first 777 fans to reply will score a $12 e-gift card — enough to cover a free Crafted Flatzz™ — along with a personalized, downloadable PHD from .Paak himself. As Dr. .Paak says, “Yes, Lawd!” — this is the degree you can actually start using. Follow Pizza Hut and .Paak to get schooled in flavor and graduate with a slice of the good life.

Crafted Flatzz™ are Pizza Hut’s boldest new menu innovation: abundantly topped, flavor-forward, hand-crafted personal pizzas. Serving up grown-up recipes, Crafted Flatzz™ offer more toppings and hand-crafted flavors for an elevated personal pizza experience – inviting fans around the world to take a moment for themselves and enjoy bold flavor. Crafted Flatzz™ launched in the U.S. last month with five standout recipes — Nashville Hot Chicken, Chicken Bacon Ranch, The Ultimate, Three Cheese and Pepperoni Duo — all designed to bring big flavor in personal form.

“Anderson .Paak is the perfect partner for this. He brings the same energy and love for good times that we are bringing back,” said Roy Torres, Global Creative Director at Pizza Hut. “As a brand, we are all about feeding good times. We’re not just launching a new product; we’re making it fun and interactive. Fans can unlock their own PHD, get a free Crafted Flatzz™, and join the celebration.”
