Campaign Objective

Campaign Objective

To give rising musicians global exposure through a fashion-meets-music innovation, turning fans into “walking promoters” who share music via wearable QR codes.

Campaign Story

Campaign Story

Bacardi’s ongoing “Music Liberates Music” program took an innovative twist: rather than traditional vinyl or online releases, it partnered with luxury streetwear brand Nahmias to create a “Wearable Album” collection. Each of the four apparel pieces (hoodies, jackets, tees, hats) had a stylishly integrated QR code patch designed with AI that, when scanned, opened a streaming playlist of new tracks by three unsigned artists (from Chicago, London, Berlin) curated by Grammy producer Boi-1da. To motivate sharing, Bacardi gamified it—every scan that a wearer’s garment received earned that wearer points toward live music rewards like festival tickets.

100% of net proceeds from the clothing sales and NFTs of the album artwork went to the featured artists.
