How women are represented in '50 cent - candy shop'.

The women that are in this video are made to come across as exposed and showing a lot of ‘flesh’. The song insinuates that these girls should be doing what 50 cent is singing about, also what he is going to do to them. Some of his lyrics like ‘get on top then get to bouncing round like a low rider’ and also ‘after you work up a sweat you can play with the stick’. These lyrics show that this is all that these girls are for, and what they are only used or wanted for. This makes them come across as ‘low’ and ‘degraded’ compared to the men. They have been dressed up in outfits that are highly revealing so the men essentially, as this video the man are on top, and as this is what they like, this is what they are going to get.

The girls are dressed up in colours that are reds and pinks, this is because these colours insinuates the thought of lust and sex, which is what the music lyrics is about so there is a good link between this and the music video.

The whole video was represented into 50 cent’s dream. This insinuates that this is his dream, and what he wants to happen.
