Justin Biebers music video “Baby” is a fast-paced, upbeat song, about a boy who is chasing after his girlfriend and is trying to get her back. In this video, the genders interact in a typical way. The boy chases the girl and both genders “show off” their dance moves in an attempt to impress each other. In the 21st century, teens don’t usually meet in a bowling alley, but usually meet at places like school, the mall, or through their other friends. This may indicate that they already were friends just out having a good time. If this is true, then the video is realistic in how it portrays teenagers and how they interact.
The merging of the two genre’s (Bieber: pop, and Ludacris: rap) indicates that the music industry is trying out a new way to gain fans; combining Bieber, a fairly new artist, with Ludacris, a well known rapper. And as popular as this video is, it seems like it worked.
