Being Black Is the Revolution: Inside Beats by Dre's 'You Love Me'
Tagline is our podcast about the making of great ads. Listen to Season 2, Episode 11 above.
This week on Tagline, we look at the most startling brand statement on race from the turbulent months after George Floyd's death in 2020: Beats by Dre's two-minute film "You Love Me." We speak with the team who created the work at the agency Translation—how they pivoted from a product campaign, partnered with A-listers led by the director Melina Matsoukas, went down a very different path than they expected to at first, and in the end achieved a remarkable double triumph: celebrating the beauty and resilience of Black America, while confronting white America for loving Black culture but hating Black people.
