Flight of the conchords - Hiphopopotamus
Basically what this video does is try to imitate an actual rap music video but in a way that the audience would find funny
This video uses lots of low angle shots which is what a rap music video would have, the video also includes a lot of dancing, the dancing is quite stupid and does take the mic a little but some rap videos do include little snips of the artist dancing
Looking at how they use typical rap conventions....
A typical common convention of a rap music video is that it shows the artist illustrious and exotic lifestyles, illustrating the stars daily life style in the videos.
This video goes completely opposite to a normal rap music video, the clothes they are wearing do not fit a typical rap music video, as the clothes are to smart looking.
The setting plays a big part of the rap video because it shows one of the typical places for a rap video to take place.
