There are many students in our college who produce their own music, so what we decided to do was hold auditions and chose the best musician for our music video. From having many talented students come along we decided to use Imad Ahmod’s track ‘Down for me’ as we thought it was one of the most appropriate tracks for the century we live in and after posting the auditions on face book his was the one that had the most positive audience feedback.
We interviewed Imad and asked him to answer a few question on why he decided to make this song as we thought we should know a bit more about the musician. He had told us that the song was all about his first crush, how he tried to win her heart then ended up losing her which made him decide he should write out everything he felt for her, which had him thinking that it would be a great idea for a song. This topic of fallen love is a convention which we identified from our research into this genre. It seems that rappers often rap about negative life experiences and learning from your mistakes- eg, Eminem and 2pac both rap about difficulties in life and when live is mentioned it is often about the hardships involved.
