Young sportsmen training to reach the top as a metaphor for Dio's own road to fame. This is the rapper’s directing debut.

For the video for the title track of his latest album, rapper Dio for the first time took the director’s seat, because of the song’s personal character. De Man tells a story about the road to success. Dio’s own path is likened to that of streetwise boys, who in separate ways fight to become the best: kickboxer Tyjani Beztati, soccer player Cody Gakpo and sprinter Jay van Brienen.
