Tropes

Trope maker - The intital inspiration for the trope

Inverted trope - A trope reversed

Subverted trope - A trope that deliberately turns the trope on its head, or attacks it

For example - Many artists have sung about DJ's

Trope maker: 'Having a party' by Sam Cooke - 'So listen Mr DJ keep those records playing 'cause I'm having such a good time dancing with my baby'

Other artists have then gone on to release songs following a similar theme such as:

'Evacuate the dance floor' - Cascada
'Play that funky music (White boy)' - Wild Cherry
'Re-Rewind (The crowd say Bo Selecta)' - The Artful Dodger feat. Craig David
'Music' - Madonna
'Play' - Jennifer Lopez
'Pon de replay' and 'Please don't stop the music' - Rihanna

However, some artists have taken a different approach to singing about DJ's

Inverted trope: 'Don't play that song again' by Nicki French - 'Oh DJ, please don't play, Don't play that song again'

Subverted trope: 'Panic' by The Smiths - 'Hang the blessed DJ, Because the music that they constantley play'
