J.Cole Apparently was released on December the 9th 2014 by Dreamville Records, Roc Nation and the Columbia Records with the rest of his tracks on the Album, 2014 Forest Hills Drive. The Album was supported by four singles: "Wet Dreamz", No Role Modelz , "Love Yourz" including "Apparently". Singles are used to promote the album which this song does very well. Throughout the video there is a blue or green kind of background which can relate the colours to the album cover. It also will have images of the memories he had when he lived at Forest Hills Drive. The first verse he tells a story about a time when he got famous and was living the life in New York until the house he once lived in (Forest Hills Drive) was enclosed and was for sale. He went back to buy the house for his Mum thinking that all the pain will go away.
The visual effects in the background go well with the story/ the music video. This shot is an establishing shot which gives us an idea of how Forest Hills Drive was. Even though the images within the video are blurry the still give us an idea. This could probably mean that J.Cole is keeping some of his privacy to himself by the blurring images.
This is a mid-shot of his Mother; this can tell us how she is happy when or after she got the house back. The whole first verse tells us about Forest Hills Drive and there is a line when he mentions it, and how it wasn't a perfect home. So the first verse tells us about how his Mother was not able to make payments to keep the house and how J.Cole felt so helpless so later on he bought the house again and renovated it to make it look like how it was when he lived there.

This song is called Bullet Proof Love which is performed by Method Man. This song is used in the new Netflix series Luke Cage. It promotes the series Luke Cage and also the Marvel Entertainment as they have a big part on making the series Luke Cage. During the song Method Man raps a line that is ''Lord, who to call when no one obeys the law
And there ain’t no Iron Man that can come and save us all?''. This lyric also can promote Iron-Man and the avengers as they are movies of these superheroes. Synergy is a term used to describe a situation where different entities cooperate advantageously for a final outcome. The song is only been used in the series Luke Cage but people are listening to it as it has become a hit. Method Man being a great lyricist while doing music has promoted Luke Cage in a good way. The music has a style which is illustrative as the lyrics and the video share the story as there is scenes that are within the episodes and it does tell the story of the character.

Drake has not built the company by himself and he is always giving credit to his team.
This shot is a long shot and a wide shot as Drake is in the middle and his crew are all looking directly in the camera. The thing that stands out the most is the logo of the clothing brand which is the golden owl. In most of Drakes videos has the clothing brand logo or at least the colours to represent the record company.
As Drake has signed a lot of artists that are becoming well known the income for the record company has increased over the years as every artist is at least dropping a song or an album. Also the OVO sound has made a YouTube channel called OVO radio which they release songs that are free to the public so they can listen. Having the three platforms that can increase the income of the company which is fashion, music and socialising with the public.

The song is Summertime with Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff. The use of different media outlets is useful when it comes to music; the more you use different types of media platforms the more you are exposed to a wider audience. This produces a lot of income for the record labels and also benefits the artists dramatically. In this video will smith still shows of his humour in little snippets but this music video is mostly about summer bbqs, family time together it just a fun filled music video. They are sitting in deck chairs and eating this shows his relaxed nature. This video was one of his most successful songs and was a good step for this actor Will Smith is a great example of using a mixture of media outlets to launch his long successful career; from the show Fresh Prince of Bel Air from 1990- 1996 and eventually into various films and whilst doing that made videos, because he was a well-known actor his music was popular and is still at family parties.
This is a mid-shot of the two actors in the music video. The camera also seems to be at a low angle to show their dominance over the audience. These actors are also in the season TV show called Fresh of Bel Air which i have mentioned above. The person of the right is DJ Jazzy Jeff who is known as Jazz in the show and Will Smith played himself. The contrast and lighting of the video throughout is very warm and colourful. This can also tell us how happy the music video is and goes with the song and title “Summertime”.
Will Smith is still an active actor who has been in the movie After Earth with his son Jaden Smith, Concussion where he plays a doctor who has discovered a brain disorder in the sport American Football and the upcoming movie Collateral Beauty.
This is a high angle shot of a woman in a car that can represent woman as not being dominated by how the camera is placed. This is also shows we as the audience are dominate but it can show a different message as the woman is driving. In most countries woman are not allowed to drive so this can also show dominance and can encourage women to be able to drive more often as it goes against some countries and religions.
