rack chosen: Zombie - Jamie T
Reasoning:
My reasoning for choosing this track was fundamentally because I like it. The plan was to do a song by Jamie T but finding the right one was a struggle. I narrowed it down to 'Zombie' as it was played on the BBC Radio 1 breakfast show, and that removed any ambiguity of which genre it would come under. The song also allows for a lot of ideas to be thrown at it as it has the base level idea of the ‘zombie’ theme and being able to create a video along those lines, or use the lyrics to mould it into a brand-new outlook of the song. Jamie T has been a solid British artist since the early 2000’s, and for me, using a British artist was a necessity to partially promote the British music scene, and our ability to create some incredible pieces of music, and Jamie T is the epitome of this through his success in making some of the top-rated UK tracks and albums. Although he isn’t a Sony artist, he is someone I believe would be suited for such a label. This is predominantly down to their presence on and off stage, as Sony has made the point of saying that the majority of artists money comes from live shows, so if they’re able to perform well and hold a crowd, then they have what it takes, which he does.
