This document discusses the ideological basis of the music industry and how it promotes organic and synthetic music acts. There are two main ideologies of creativity - the organic ideology views artists' success coming from within, needing nurturing from the record label. Eminem is an example of an organic act. The synthetic ideology constructs the artist's image, trying different combinations for short-term success. Lady Gaga is an example of a synthetic act whose image was carefully developed over time. Record labels seek to balance both organic and synthetic acts to ensure short and long-term profits.Question 4&5

This document discusses how a media product represents social groups. It notes stereotypes associated with rap fans like wearing gold jewelry, being morally ambiguous, affiliated with gangs, aggressive, rude, young, and using drugs/alcohol.

Hip hop originated in the 1970s from African American and Latino American communities in New York City. It is represented by four elements - rapping, DJing, breaking, and graffiti. Stereotypically, people interested in hip hop enjoy the music, basketball, football, and street art. They value appearance and fashion, wearing baggy clothes. While the media portrays hip hop positively as upbeat music, it also negatively associates it with drugs, violence, crime and graffiti.

The target audience for folk rock music includes males and females aged 13-23. Males make up half the audience and tend to be older at 17-23, while females are younger at 13-23. Both genders can relate to common folk rock themes like love, friendship, nature, and aggression. Ideal consumers of folk rock music videos would include an indie-styled male who prefers vinyl and independent films, and a similar female who is more conscious of trends but uses music for relaxation and cares deeply about the lyrics.Best Artist Rep January 2016 Issue

- 1. How does your media product represent particular social groups? Looking at stereotypes of indie band members
- 2. I chose Pete Doherty as a stereotype because he is seen to be cool to younger people, because of his drug use and is seen to be the typical ‘bad boy’. This makes people see him as their idol, as he isn’t your typical, boring band member, he has a sense of personality. I chose Brandon Flowers as a stereotype because he is an indie band member, however he is also an idol. He’s seen to be good and good looking, there aren’t many pictures of him looking a mess, which shows he has self respect and doesn’t like going out and making himself look like an idiot.
