Painting Greatness.
Just ahead of the start of the new Premier League season, Beats by Dre has teamed up with British rapper Dave to produce a 60-second animated short starring revered Manchester United forward, Marcus Rashford.
Aptly dubbed “Never Beaten,” the short animation comes to life in the form of a flipbook which visualises Marcus’ footballing journey in a whole new light. Manchester United fan Dave provides words of motivation as the narrator for the animation, speaking on the theme of ‘greatness’, he likens it to a ‘painting’ which Marcus has spent a lifetime creating, but is still yet to finish. Speaking on the release, Marcus commented:
“The thing I love about football is that it gives you the opportunity to rewrite chapters every season. No one chapter can define you. This rallying cry from Dave, who’s a good friend of mine, sums it up perfectly. We pick ourselves up and we go again. Together. United. Dave has a way with words that can articulate feeling like no one else. He understands that football mirrors life, you’re always going to face obstacles but it’s how you react and recover that defines us.”
