A Review of the 50 Cent AYO Technology video
Sunday, September 30, 2007 at 2:14PM A previous post on this blog has breifly introduced the perceptions of 50 Cent's very provocative music video for AYO Technology. Here is a more detailed review of the 50 Cent AYO Technology Video:
AYO Technology is one of the first singles from 50 Cent’s “Curtis” album. The song features pop singer, Justin Timberlake. After finding out about this new single, I looked forward to observing the 50 Cent AYO Technology video. The rapper looks like a clean-cut businessman. Justin Timberlake looks like an assistant in 50 Cent’s empire. After watching this music video, it is easy to realize that both men are partners in a strange fixation of unknown and inaccessible women.
The 50 Cent AYO Technology video appears to be very dark in nature. However, it is an entertaining addition to a list of rap music videos that contain predictable elements. Contrary to the typical rap music video, this one has one central theme that does not focus on cars or money. Instead, the 50 Cent AYO Technology video portrays a fixation between the rapper, Justin Timberlake and sexy women in cyberspace. One popular blogger at Obtusity has described the meaning of 50 Cent’s AYO Technology song being about a person’s masturbation to porn movies.
It may not be easy to determine if that is the true meaning behind this song. However, the 50 Cent AYO Technology video does a good job of portraying the rapper and his pop star sidekick in a stalking frenzy. At first glance, I thought that 50 Cent and Justin Timberlake were spying on women in attempt to murder them. In time, I realized that their behavior is the result of a desire to get closer to these women. Still, many different perceptions can be developed of 50 Cent’s AYO Technology video.
The technical portion of 50 Cent’s AYO Technology is just as good as other elements. It is loaded with interesting digital effects and gadgets. The night vision shots add more color and brightness to this dark music video. As one woman takes off her clothes in one scene, Justin Timberlake wishes that he had some soft of X-ray vision to see her up close. Instead, his binoculars are able to do the trick. The same x-ray vision appears in another scene where viewers get to see through a car that another woman is driving. It goes to show that the 50 Cent AYO Technology video can easily appeal to male fans and some gamers.
Grade A
High end cars are about the only thing that makes this music video similar to other productions with 50 Cent or any rapper in general. One great aspect about the 50 Cent AYO Technology video is that it has an imaginative theme and neat design. This music video is filled with sexy women, but in a different manner. It is definitely worth watching for fans and average TV viewers alike. The currently most popular gangster rapper is a spy with his pop star, stalker compadre. There is not much more that you can ask for when it comes to the 50 Cent AYO Technology video. Male fans will enjoy the sexy women and digital effects while female fans will be glad to see Justin Timberlake again. The 50 Cent AYO Technology gets an “A” for great imaging and realization of a dark song that some fans are still trying to figure out.
