  • Repetition of the chorus, and belly dancers to get male attention.
Audience:
  • people who like to have fun e.g dancers
  • Lovers
  • Teenagers

Representation:
  • street dancing - a sense of a young vibe and a young audience also goes with the genre of the song very urban.
  • Graffiti also represents urban and the youths.
  • belly dancers -  sexiness of females.
Media Language
  • Flashing lights
  • slow motion
  • Fast editing to go with the pace of the song.
  • Use of rewind
  • video cutting to the beat - goes with the genre of the song and the instrumental, makes the views want to watch it all to the end
