American rapper and singer, born 1996, was a mostly small and unknown artists in his early years of making music. His first released song was when he was 19 named 'Don't hit my line' and carried on by releasing his first album at 21 called 'Never Going Home' which received mixed results but was mostly successful for his first album.

He gained exposure from a youtube group named NELK using his music in their videos, this gained him much more attention but this wasn't his 'big break'. Not a year after the attention from youtube, he released a song called Roxanne which soon became a big hit topping charts becoming 4th in the US and UK and 1st in New Zealand which was because of TikTok which Roxanne blew up on. Due to this he then partnered with Atlantic Records.

Charity Advertisements

Image
Purpose - To raise money and to raise awareness for famine. Appeal to audience - It uses guilt to guilt trip the audience into donating by basically saying if you don't now the children may not live to see another day. Also it uses the story of a mother who can't look after her child properly so by using a story it would get more of a reaction from viewers and makes it relatable so for example a mother would sympathise with it therefore more likely to donate, this would also be using empathy.

This is hinted just before the reveal by her sitting in the directors chair and this scene is also reflexivity where a text is aware of itself as it shows the characters coming off the set. Another point in the video is showing a hierarchy between men, in the boat scene the man in the sailor uniform is bringing a drink to the man then he gets shouted at by the man and backs off which shows there's a hierarchy between the rich and the poor. When he is with the kid in the park and on his own looki
