Here is a music Video from rapper and hip-hop artist Kid Cudi. He is said to be one of the greatest of this new age of music. In this video from one of his older songs known as "Cudder is back" We can see how it takes place in his comfortable home. Cudi is just relaxing at home with some friends enjoying the night. The director made this video very easy to follow and there's not much that is complicated about it. The video is so laid back and has humor to it which makes it enjoyable. Its probably night time since the blinds are closed and the lights are all on and we can see the influence of drugs and alcohol in the first 10 seconds of the film.
As soon as the scene starts we can see a bottle of alcohol and a bunch of energy drinks. This can infer that they are going to drink that since it's what the camera focuses on first. Then there's a scene with Cudi hugging another man while holding a bag of weed. From this I can say that it was his drug dealer bringing him some marijuana. As we can see this video is has 2 million views, which means he has a strong fan base.
The influence of drugs and alcohol is easily seen in this video and it's all revolved around his music. With millions of fans its not hard to get at least one or two people to follow in your footsteps. Putting music videos on youtube is a great way to catch someones attention, but it's also a great way to propose bad habits to someone. I'm not degrading hip-hop artist because they smoke or drink and nothing near that, all i'm saying is that with the technology we have today it is easy to persuade people of bad habits.
