Blog Entry #2: A Look at Music Videos

My initial reaction to this music video is that it was really unique how it started with a video of Big Sean five years ago. At first he talks about how he feels as if his dreams are coming true then this video fast forwards to his life currently where he's rich and famous. This video is basically about living everyday to the fullest, like it's your last. This music video somewhat follows Gospel Values, but at the same time it counters them since everyone in the video doesn't seem to think of any consequences to what they're doing. I think that because this song's like a feel good song, it influenced this music video to be made. I think the scenery in this video and the bright lights used musically worked with this song. Most of the elements used in this video really made me enjoy this music video. Now this song really motivates me to try and reach all my long term goals.
