Local commuters were a captive audience earlier this month when a Los Angeles-based cultural experiment took to the Metro in a coordinated effort to answer the question, What the hell is love anyway?

The Love Project, launched by local advertising agencyMuse Communications, wants to get to the heart of what love really means, and theyre doing it by asking a lot of people a lot of questions, and by performing Lil Wayne songs on public transportation.

Jo Muse, chairman and chief creative officer at Muse Communications, explained The Love Project in a press releaseas a way to explore culture and share it with a broader audience, He went on to describe the experiment as an opportunity to create something completely independent of client work.

The projectscollection of video interviewstake on dating, religion, mily, race, , heartbreak, divorce and sustaining a healthy marriage with questions like How did you know you were in love?, What would you NOT do for love? and Are human beings capable of unconditional love?

Lil Waynes How to Love was a surprising turn for the rapper who sung his way through the guitar-laden track, showcasing his softer and more emotive side. Now, a group of L.A. subway riders are bringing more life to Tha Carter IV track, which was released in June.

The Love Project, launched by L.A. local advertising agency Muse Communications, created a cultural experiment where those taking part tried to get to the heart of what love really means by performing the Young Money CEOs hit song on public transportation.

In a press release issued by Muse Communications chairman and chief creative officer, Jo Muse, she explained The Love Project was created in an effort to explore culture and share it with a broader audience.

In the two-minute clip, a man boards the subway with guitar in hand and kicks off the song. As the commute gets underway,hes joined by more passengers singing How to Love,including a ponytail-sporting tween who knows all of the lyrics.
