This post celebrates Plan B's success as an artist, plus as a 'British Male', probably for his intuition towards Britain and his attempts to bring good will. This as a result just spreads Ben Drew "Plan B"'s success and that he's pioneered his own way of good practices like this.

Another cross-promotion for his fellow film artist's movie, as well as music artists. It refers to another film that has a similar concept to his own, ILL Manors, called OFFENDER. This sort of shows and encourages the issues presented in ILL Manors to be extended and understood for his viewers.

This post is to divert all attention to his album, "Ill Manors", while also creating a synergy for his film which has the same title subject "ILL Manors". This obviously helps his growth as a music artist, however acknowledging the links, it also helps him grow as a film director/producer.

This tweet as a promotion result is from sharing the film's successes and nominations, it gives the audience who haven't watched the film yet an initial 'pre-reaction' to how good the film is.

ACER: iLL Manors is one of the best films I've watched this year. Watch it.

This tweet from a lyric writer is short and snappy, but it gives a clear message that the film is something to not miss out on.

MIC: Watching iLL Manors

This tweet from a rap artist wants his followers to acknowledge the film, usually tweets are about important stuff or the total opposite, tweeting about your daily life, and this just gives it good publicity as if it's another mainstream, popular movie.

4.) The ILL Manors page has used pictures effectively to produce a message and meaning without words, but also in a short span of time. It opens up ambiguous interpretations and views, which the Tag London's campaign was all trying to encourage young people to have opinions in politics. 

5.)

This tweet associated with the Tag London campaign helps create and 'communicate' with teenagers today in London of their 'language', and the method Plan B uses to deliver this is from graffiti messages.
