Macklemore &Ryan Lewis - Thrift Shop Feat. Wanz
In this music video we see a range of people in a range of clips mainly Macklemore in a variety of clothing which by the song it is suggested they are from the 'thrift shop' showing how he doesn't feel the need to spend lots of money on clothes when he can get them second hand but still in great condition. inm the song he also goes onto say he wouldn't buy a 50 dollar Gucci t-shirt as its ridiculous money for something and an ignorant buy, the locations for this video include locations such as thrift stores.
Taylor Swift - The Man
This video shows Taylor Swift dressed as a man doing all of the stereotypical things a successful man would do who only really cares about himself, showing how some men who think they're above others are disrespectful towards them. this song and video shows that women have to work a lot harder then men to get to the same place even in our modern world
At the end of the video she gives the man version of herself some directions to fully create her vision, and praises the female actress in the scene. She also chose to use the voice of Dwayne Johnson for the male version of herself which is a very deep masculine voice to emphasis her masculinity in her male version of herself.
Lil Nas X - Old Town Road (Official Movie) ft. Billy Ray Cyrus
in this music video we see an old cowboy movie styled intro with a typography and colour scheme of the scene going with this genre and theme, we see to men ridding away on horses with a bag of money with three sheriffs riding closely behind but they stop to let them keep going as they were going so fast they should be left to fly.
they then trespass on someones land and to get away Lil Nas runs into a tunnel to get away, but its a portal that takes him to 2019 in the same location which is very different then from when hes from. He is seen to ride down the street with all the locals stopping what they're doing to stare at him.
life was simpler when you just rode around on horses and could fully enjoy life.
