3. The Weekend- Cant feel my
face
Set in a old night club.
Like all R&B songs on
this power point the
song is about romance
and love but the twist is
that its all metaphorical
because The Weekend
is talking about drugs its
not a romance between
partners but its between
him and drugs.
The way in which the
music video is set,
him on fire, is kind of
different to the other
songs.
This type of
music video is is
performance and
a storyline.
Since the song
was made in
2017 the clothes
are very casual.
The lifestyle is very social
and wealthy due to the fact
that the video is set in the
nightclub and its talking
about drugs which implies
that he has a lot of money to
be spending on drugs.
The singer- is male
depicted as the
main protagonist
A lady sighing,shes
depicted as a
person who is
finding the main
protagonists
performance
boring
A creepy looking
man Is depicted as
the drug dealer for
the main
protagonist.
This type of song is
something that I would
play in the house or in the
car because its very
relaxed and its nice to
listen to.
4. Nelly- Dilemma ft Kelly Rowland
Like all R&B songs
on this power point
the song is about
romance and love.
Its set on a busy
street in the 2000s.
This type of
music video is is
performance
and a storyline.
The clothes very
vintage and you
can tell that it
was created in
the early 2000s
due to the
different fashion.
There is a wealthy life style
depicted in the video due to the
fact that there are expensive cars
used an the neighborhood which
the music video is filmed looks
very wealthy.
Nelly and Kelly are both
depicted as the main
protagonists, their
relationship in the
video is very
stereotypical because
they are black couple
arguing and cheating
on each other yet they
This is a type of song
I would play around
certain people
because its so deep
and it’s a very loving
kind of song.
5. Blackstreet- No diggity
This type of music
video is a
performance.
The music video is
set in various
locations and there
is a lot of outfit
changes through
out the video but.
Like Nelly- Dilemma
ft Kelly Rowland you
can tell that the
music video was
filmed during the
early 2000s.
Like most R&B songs
its about “physical
connections”.
The lifestyle for this video is
very social and you can also
tell they are players
because of the language
they use and the way they
act in the video.
The 4 main protagonists
are depicted as players
due to how they behave
during the music video,
they have a lot of girls
surrounding them and
they have that player
type of look to them.
I would play this song in
the house as well
because its now a song u
can dance to but you can
vibe to it.
6. Aretha Franklin- Respect
This song talks about
how men don’t give
women as much
respect as they should
in relationships and
this song is basically
about Aretha asking
her man for the respect
that she deserves.
This song is very old and
there was a music video
but it was in black and
white and it was a
performance.
Aretha depicts a very
mother-like lifestyle
due to the fact that
her lyrics are asking
for the basic stuff that
should be included in
a relationship.
As the main
protagonist she is seen
as a mother and wife
figure due to how her
lyrics are very mature.
I would play this song in
the house with my cousin
cause we like like old and
classic song with a good
beat to it and it’s a song
you can Karaoke to.
This song was released
in in the 1960s a time
when the women's
movement was starting
so this song links to
how women were
treated as properties
and they didn't’t have
a say in a lot of stuff
and they weren't
allowed to work or if
they would work they
weren't getting the
same amount of
money as men were.
