Smif-N-Wessun - Bucktown
Smiff N Wessun - Bucktown
This video from smiff n wessun represents the struggle and violence that happens in such deprived areas. People usually misjudge rappers such as "Smiff N Wessun" for being ignorant, self-centered people whom's lives revolve around drugs and violence, however they dont realise the cold up bringing certain people have. One of the lyrics within the song is "another murdered, just another prankster, rudeboy dead because he thought he was a gangster". That lyric sums up the harsh reality in some areas around the world. As well as this, certain camera shots which are used help to express some of the emotions.Throughout the video, the video contains the use of tracking shots to show the conditions in which they live in. At apporximetly 30 seconds within the music video a tracking shot has been introduced as it shows the audience an image of the housing states represented in the rappers area. As the song progresses the video includes close-ups of a bloody hand. This image can be seen 1 minute and 38 second within the video. This image repsresent the violent side of living in such promonently weaponry popluated areas.
