See the bold lights, dark environment and people waiting 
Outside queuing. This appeals to the audience as it very 
Realistic.

Of the similar conventions these include is multi coloured 
Strobe lights, large groups of people dancing. However 
The artist is placed in the middle of the shot in space to

This video is very iconographical of its genre as it 
has some of the key stylistic conventions of a 
Hip/Hop genre video. For example the outfits, the 
pace of editing and the location are very popular 
in this particular genre. For instance a artist may 
wear loads of chains and fashionable clothes that 
are popular to a fan base of a specific genre in a 
video to show his wealth and gain popularity. We 
know this as in other videos produced within the 
same genre with similar artist such as “Drake” 
also use some of these stylistic conventions within 
his music videos.
Editing 
In this particular music video the editing is very 
fast pace between shots, this is to ensure that 
the club settings is realistic. For example it 
cuts from different energetic dance moves to 
make the club look more lively. This appeals to 
the audience as it firstly looks more realistic 
and is more enjoyable to watch as it is 
momentarily capturing their attention.
Hybridisation 
This music video is a hybridisation of 
performance and narrative. This is because it 
shows the story of a group of friends arriving to 
a club and having a good time. It is also 
performance as the artist has incorporated 
dance routines.
