Product placement

JJQ (the performer) acts - he is rapping. This is a performance, so the performer is the subject. Removing him would change the video. Lollapalooza appears as a watermark/event name, but does not act. Removing it would not change the video. Q Brothers appears as a group name and on clothing, but does not act. Removing it would not change the video. Jordan (brand on clothing) appears, but does not act. Removing it would not change the video.
