| 9 | !!Tinie Tempah provides examples of: |
| 10 | * BoastfulRap: "Pass Out" is half straight example, half AffectionateParody. The hook is standard if arguably lame Boastful Rap about partying and drinking and getting all the women, but the verses contain bizarre, uncool boasts like "I got so many clothes I keep them in my aunt's house" and "I'm pissed I never got to fly on a Concorde / I been Southampton but I've never been to Scunthorpe".[[note]]for Americans unsure about those English towns, know that they are both desperately uncool.[[/note]] |
| 11 | * ConceptVideo: "Wonderman", basing itself on a kind of 'Bionic Man' superhero origin story, parodying most related tropes (Including having Ellie Goulding as a scientist throughout). |
| 12 | %%* IAmSong: "Written in the Stars". |
| 13 | * PurelyAestheticEra: The "Wonderman" video is ostensibly set in the 70s, parodying Series/TheSixMillionDollarMan. Despite this, a [[ProductPlacement Blackberry Playbook, Paget wristwatch]], and modern exercise machines are prominently displayed. |
| 14 | * ShoutOut: "Written in the Stars": ''"I cried '''''teardrops''''' for Music/MassiveAttack"'', which is a reference to the song "Teardrop" by Music/MassiveAttack from their album ''Music/{{Mezzanine}}''. |
