Slang; shortened word of because.

Persuasive language.

___________________________________________________________________ Target Audience Age: 14-21 Gender: Both Females and Males. I have analysed the song lyrics written by Amarachi and have to the conclusion that overall the song is aimed to the younger generation being those in the age range of 1421. I have gave a specific age range because of the use of words Amarachi uses, he uses slang words like ‘dons, dawg, gyaliss’ this are the typical words a young boy would say however if your are under the age of 14 you may not of heard these words which is why I have said 14+. I also believe that this song will only appeal upto the age 21 this is because most people mature at that age and would not use phrases like ‘I want you, your my wife not my dawg. Someone who is under the age of 21 would associate their girlfriend/main girl as their ‘dawg’ which means they are not only their girlfriends they are also their close friend, however the reason I have said the song will not appeal to someone over 21 is because a male at the age of 22 will not associate his girlfriend with the word ‘dawg’ because they would have grown up. Also females that pass the age of 21 do not find typical words like ‘dove’ and ‘pretty’ very appealing they would quite often find it pathetic. I have said this song is towards both females and males because although the song is reaching out to girls it also allows boys to connect to the song because they may feel like they are in the same position. It is also aimed towards females because it is persuasive with phrases like; ‘let me show you I’m not like those other dons’ which is simply saying that they want to prove that they are not a typical ‘player’ which is appealing towards girls because that’s what they want. I will be using the target age and gender when filming my music video for this song, I will take into count that the song is aimed at young people therefore I will make it more engaging to those rather than adults because the lyrics and video will not make sense together.

___________________________________________________________________ Lyrics The lyrics are simply about a boy who has his main girl who he adores a lot and shares the thoughts of what he will do to her for example when he says ‘I’ll protect you’. The male artist sings the lyrics in a much toned way. The song is not about a break up it is


about his main girl which means the lyrics can be very controversial because he could be saying ‘She’s my main girl’ that he loves a lot but behind that he may have many other girls but just are not official. This can help me when creating my music video around these lyrics making the video more engaging by giving it a strong meaning behind it. The lyrics could also be him saying how things use to be the phrase ‘I love the way you smile with those nice lips’, this could mean that he is reminiscing about his old girlfriend/main girl which leads me to many idea’s to the video. I could also use some of these lyrics to create a story broad of a broken down relationship and the artist reminiscing about the old times showing flashback of how it use to be with the convention of interpretive. The phrase ‘I love the way you smile with those nice lips’ could also be away of him telling us he wants her back by giving her lots of compliments. In the chorus it is almost like he is saying without her he is nothing hence the phrase’ she’s the air that I breathe’ which is meaning if she is not there he has no air to live which overall that he is saying there is no point him living without her.

___________________________________________________________________ Music The artist of this song is mainly from the genre background of Grime and Hip Hop, the artist raps in his song but also sings this makes him like known artist like Dappy and Lambrinth. They both appeal to the younger generation rather than adults. The background beat gives the song a Hip Hop feel with a simple but engaging beat. The beat has a particular rhythm to every 8counts this helps the song feel more Hip Hop whereas the lyrics of the songs make the song more grime through the use of slang. The artist is a young rapper which uses his lyrics to explain what he feels about other and in his song ‘Main Girl’ he talks about the girl he likes but may have lost. The main reason of the song is to let the audience understand what his feeling with the lyrics always explaining what he likes about his main girl this is like the lyrics from the music video called ‘love the way you are’ by Bruno Mars. I am going to use the lyrics and incorporate it into my ideas so that some of the words he is singing are visibly clear as well as clear to hear. I can use ideas like stop animation of him texting his main girl telling her “let me hold you”.

___________________________________________________________________ Tempo The tempo of the song is not slow but it is not fast the pace of the beat is up to beat which makes it easier for the lyrics to fit on the actually beat. The tempo of the song is not visible to the audience when the chorus is being sung because the main purpose is to concentrate on the slow lyrics. The beat comes in when the artist starts to rap which lets the words flow one to another. The tempo can help me when cutting the video because there is a clear beat that I can cut to which will make the music video overall more affective.

___________________________________________________________________


Video I chose this song specifically because I knew the artist and overall I knew I could do a lot with the lyrics and I could also do a lot of good cuts with the beat. I have loads of different ideas that would go with the lyrics. I decided that my main aspect is that I want the video to be a narrative video. I want to make the video all about a specific story being the artist having his girlfriend but behind her he cheated with many other girls and at the end you will see him get caught and acting, this will make the video more meaningful and helps go with the lyrics. Also because the song is all about a relationship I want the music video to contain old clips of when their relationship was prefect in black and white this will make the video more complex. I also want to focus on the girl which is his main girl because I want her to be a dancer so I can use certain techniques like stop animation and rewind. The settings I have in mind for the music video is at a riverside which is called thames barrier, I also want to do some filming in my dance studio and I want the last setting to be the house; specifically the bedroom.
