Our chosen genre

Myself and Brittany after much research and consideration decided upon the R&B genre as we enjoy this music ourselves and therefore are very familiar with the style of these videos which allowed us to come up with an idea of a song choice and narrative fairly quickly. When choosing the genre we researched other R&B artists such as Rihanna, Beyonce, Nicki Minaj, iggy Azalea, Mariah Carey, Arianna Grande, Fergie and Christina Aguilera. We decided that our three focus artists would be Fergie, Iggy Azalea and Christina Aguilera as they are the most similar to the artist that we are trying to portray. Also whilst researching the Artists from this genre we decided upon our song for the music video which is "Russian Roulette" by Rihanna as we feel we can express the genre of the music video through the narrative that we have come up with for this song.
