Favourite Music Video

My favourite music is TI live your life this is due to the fact that it has a structured and effective narrative which portrays the two sides to the life of a famous rapper which is conventional to the genre of RnB as it shows what they have come from to what they are now another example that does this in a different sense is Lil Wayne how to love as it shows the different paths that you can through e.g. A person who studies and works hard or one who doesn’t and struggles in life.

Due to the video being much more narrative based video it does not focus on money or women the conventional Hip Hop. This also shows that the video is using the Todorov’s theory much more with the equilibrium in the video.

The video though still gratifies the audience even though it doesn’t focus on the bragging of their rich lifestyle or the objectification of women as it represents a lot of their lifestyles before they become rich so it relations to the Dyer theory of belonging. This helps to make sure that we are able to make the target audience relate to the issue and have a sense of belonging.

For me personally it creates a sense of aspiration as it shows that despite all adversity you can still be successful despite what it thrown at you.
