The Defiant Ones Series 1
Episode 6 of 6

Jimmy Iovine reveals how his fear that Napster would change the face of music led to the founding of Beats Electronics.

The Defiant Ones reaches its final part. Jimmy Iovine talks about his worry that his and Dr Dre鈥檚 bubble might burst due the emergence of Napster.

Although Jimmy was on a roll with Dre and an enviable list of hot new acts, he also looked to forge partnerships and opportunities to secure their future.

An opportune sit-down between Jimmy and Dre led to the idea of Beats Electronics. This was the speaker-headphone phenomenon that would vault the partners to new heights and pave the way for an historic 2014 deal with Apple.

However, Apple was not just interested in headphones; it was investing in the genius of Jimmy and Dre, who continue to innovate at Apple Music while picking up accolades such as giving back to the communities that fostered their unique talents.

Series directed by Allen Hughes.
