Beats’ latest campaign film puts the spotlight on Travis Scott’s journey from bedroom producer to global superstar, using a single tweet from 2011 as its emotional anchor.
Titled Dare To Dream, the short film is inspired by Scott’s now-viral post – “ONE DAY TRAVIS SCOTT WILL BE SOMEBODY” – and reimagines it as a reflection on self-belief, persistence and creative ambition.
Nearly fifteen years on, Beats uses that moment to frame Scott’s rise, while also debuting its newest earbuds, the Powerbeats Fit, which the artist calls his favourite Beats release to date.

The film recreates Scott’s childhood bedroom, where he’s shown making beats on an Apple iMac while wearing the predecessor of the Beats Studio Pro, the original Beats Studio, which he grew up with.
That scene transitions into a dreamlike vision of sold-out arenas from his Circus Maximus tour, before snapping back to reality as his mother calls him to school.
As he leaves, Scott discovers a pair of Powerbeats Fit in his pocket, linking past ambition with present success, soundtracked by an unreleased track.
Directed by Anthony Mandler and created in collaboration with gamma. founder Larry Jackson, the campaign continues Scott’s long-running relationship with Beats, which dates back to 2015.
