Quavo, Ty Dolla $ign, and Are We Dreaming (composer Brian Tyler)) have teamed up on their new collaboration, “If I Fall,” from the upcoming motion picture Transformers One, set for release September 20th. Transformers One is the first-ever, fully CG-animated ‘Transformers’ movie, and features a star-studded voice cast, including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, with Laurence Fishburne, and Jon Hamm. The film is the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once were friends bonded like brothers who changed the fate of Cybertron forever.
Composer Brian Tyler said in a statement: “I started writing the song ‘If I Fall’ as a personal way to both express my gratitude to those who truly lifted me up when I fell down in life and a rebuke of those who turned away. This concept is the core story of Transformers One, so it’s a synergistic song. I was blessed to have both Quavo and Ty Dolla $ign contribute their incredible vocals to the track – it turned out so dope!”
The video for “If I Fall” is directed by Tyler and DJ Furth, and shows clips from Transformers One on the background screens and integrated throughout the video. Tyler shares: “It was so dope getting to work with legends Quavo and Ty Dolla who both killed it in the video for ‘If I Fall,’ which has a sick sci-fi feel that brings you into the world of Transformers. The sets were epic, it felt like we were on Cybertron …It’s kind of crazy directing your own music video when you are also singing on it, playing the drums, editing the cut, and creating the visual effects. Being so integrated in the entire process has been insane but amazing. This video is actually the first of its kind for my upcoming audio-visual project Are We Dreaming, which I direct and create all the visuals for, as well as produce the music which spans many genres but is primarily centered around bass music and hip hop. So hype for the world to see what we’ve cooked up!”
