3. Visuals and music
• Straight away we see that there is a relation between the song and the
video. The video is like a short story where it shows 3 different characters
and there life. Each character has a different problem but they are all
similar in a way for example they are all living in a warn gown grubby area.
• In the end of the video all the problems are solved and are much happier
than before. This is typical for an rap, R&B song where it features some
sort of problem or dilemma but is resolved at the end.
4. Lyrics and visuals
• Through out the whole video the lyrics go with the
video or each shot even though the shot might be
before the lyrics.
“I paint the picture of a fighter” As
Dappy says this line there is a shot
of someone banding their hands up
representing them as a fighter
“Cause when I look in the mirror
I don't even recognise myself” Just after
Dappy says this lyric in the next shot it shows
the kid looking in the mirror in the back of the
car.
5. General characteristics
• In No regrets there is mostly a close up with
Dappy to show his face and what he looks like.
In nearly every music video of Dappy there is a
close up of him signing. This shows that he is
the main subject of the video and that he is
more important to what is going on. He is also
wearing chains, baseball cap and a base ball
jacket. This is normally associated with RnB to
show the artists hip hop side/ street side.
6. Intersexuality
• “I'm a changed man now Chris Brown”. He
uses this in his lyrics saying how Chris brown
has changed.
• He also says “back to the future like, Marty
Mcfly” this is showing that he is linking to
Back to the Future. It also could mean that
you don’t have to look back on your self or to
change anything.
