I had to watch Plan B’s lecture about his new music video and about the riots and Looting. He was saying about how the people who started the riot were ‘Chavs’ and he thinks that the word ‘Chav’ has had its meaning changed and now he thinks it stands for “Council House And Violence”. He thinks that these people started the riots because they were fed up about being named under classed and undereducated. He also thinks that the society and media has started to make them believe that the businesses and that the ‘rich boys’ are more important. I agree with him in a way because the only time you ever see the word ‘Chav’ used is when a youth does something wrong and you never see them in a newspaper for doing something good because as Plan B explained is that it doesn’t go with the rest of the newspaper. Plan B also thinks that because the government is spending the Countries TAX on themselves and stuff we do rather than trying to get the youth away from bad idols and get the off the street and bored. .jpg)
The people who only really talk about these kinds of things are Plan B and some other underground music artists. I think that the reason other people aren't talking about this subject is because that they are afraid of speaking there mind and most music artists haven’t seen this part of the world. I also think that people don’t talk about this is because if they speak the truth about then it will reflect badly on the government which could cause trouble. Underground music artists do talk about these kinds of things. They are the kind of people who think that ‘Chavs’ need to be given a better life and second chances. If music artists who do speak the truth and it reflect badly on the government then there music label can refuse to play it. As Plan B explained; it takes a lot to get money and sponsorship.
I think that ‘Ill Manors’ could have a positive and a negative effect. The reason I think that is because it could show people what is really happening and it could then lead to people making a difference to help people but then on the other hand it could have a negative affect because people who watch it could think it is the youth fault and that they do deserve to go to prison and it could make people stereotype ‘Chavs’ even more. The world blames a lot on them. You never read anything good about them in the newspaper. I think that lots of different class people listen to Plan B because even though he talks about the underclass people it doesn’t take a lot of bad influence to get ‘rich boys’ to act like them especially if they would want to seem ‘cool’ and to fit in. As Plan B said if you just “plant the seed” then the rest will follow.
PLAN B-ILL MANOR MUSIC VIDEO
I personally think that this song and film is a good idea. All respect to Plan B and all of the actors involved with this.
