2. AJ Tracey- LA4AWEEK This video represents region stereotypically
It shows London to look all dark and gloomy (grey in colour) which is what a lot of
UK grime artists portray Lond0n to look like because of the lack of media coverage
of the ‘hood’
Whereas when they transition to LA it is vibrant, full of energy and life. This is
stereotypical because it represents the ‘American Dream’ as it is a place where you
can become famous and live a life of luxury
The miss-en-scene seen in London is a council estate whereas in LA it is : fast cars,
pretty women, big houses, sun and beaches
This representation connects to the artists image because he is saying how he came
from the ‘streets’ and is not going to forget about them but can also spend time in
LA because of his fame and wealth now
