Typical convention 3 (Camera work)
These music videos use camera work very similarly.
I have found that these music videos have a theme of changing the camera angle from a high angle to a low angle and everywhere in between constantly throughout.
An example of this is with Eminem's song rap god where on on of his amplified shots there is a low angle. then the next shot is the same but at a high angle, this kind of theme continues throughout. Eminem's song mainly uses low angle shots against high angle shots.
The next example is from 50 Cent's song. This song has both the high and low angle shots however i find it to use high angle shots more unlike Eminem's song.
Dr Dre's song uses high and low angles throughout and he uses them a lot, he also uses the same camera movement as Eminem's video with a pan from a high angle to a low angle in a few of his shots.
The reasons behind these high and low angle shots are most likely there to emphasize the rapper's lively lifestyle. I also find in these music videos that there is a lot of crabbing camera movement.
