Studying Pop Stars

Common Ideologies of Pop Star Lifestyle to Adapt to Music Videos - Year '13 

A lot of Pop music revolves around a historical period in time and therefore after a certain period looses all sense of meaning for the ever growing younger generation of audiences. Certain aspects of the music genre still stand, and I believe many of which would be key to having in our music videos to emphasize and capture the meaning and force driving the same old cultures of pop music. 

1. Youthfulness 


2. Rebellion 


3. Sexual Magnetism 


4. A disregard for social values. (Drug abuse, sex & polite behaviour)


5. Success against the odds. 


Artists' that die young tend to become the perfect pop stars after. Because they're young, they don't loose the musical plot by becoming old or unattractive. Once they have died they instantly become a story with a beginning a middle and an end. Generally the record company that holds the rights to their musical talent will experience a dramatic increase in the amount of sales from that artist. After Michael Jackson's death in 2009, Sony Music Entertainment signed a $250, 000, 000 deal to keep the rights to his music until 2017. Since his death he has made over $1 bn.
