Brick red looks decidedly flamingo pink to me.

Regardless of their intentions, these are really hideous.

That's quite the alt-viewpoint to have on a new line of colours. Was Steve Jobs going for gang colours when he released the 2nd gen iMacs? Or those colourful iPod Minis?

I think it was probably just referring to them as 'neighbourhood' colours, given the use of colours by neighbourhood/street gangs. It doesn't take a leap to think they're referring to gangs when they are saying the colours being introduced represent a neighbourhood. I'm not saying that that's what Apple is doing here, but I can see how people make the connection. I thought the exact same thing about it sounding a lot like saying 'gang colours' as soon as I read the headline, but more along the lines of 'oh geez. lets go see the MR forums complain about gang colours'. They release colours all the time without trying to put them into a collection, it's just weird that these were marketed as a collection based on neighbourhood colours.

Or is it just the presumed Beats demographic that led you to this conclusion?

Has nothing to do with the fact that they're Beats. And I don't really know what the presumed demographic for Beats would be, but based on my daily commutting, PowerBeats3 are most typically worn by middle aged white guys in suits who don't realise the cable is supposed to go behind the neck.
