Today, I will host two music videos, amd I will:

1) Sum up what the video is tring to tell us about the artist.
2) Explain what sort of audience it appeals to.

Firstly, I will start off by hosting the video called 'Over The Top' by Grime MC Skepta.









This video is trying to tell us that Skepta loves making money, and says that he likes The Queen looks pretty in pink referring to £50 notes. This gives us a overall look that Skepta likes making money. The typical audience to listen to this are 'hustlers' who likes to make money whatever the cost.

Secondly I have picked a music video called 'Celebrate That' by Roll Deep.








The Video is trying to tell us Roll Deep want to celebrate because their album 'In At The Deep End' has went platinum. So they celebrating by Drinking alcohol and having sex. The audience that would listen to this is people that would want to have a good time and just celebrate life and what they have accomplished.
