Narrative
A narrative music videos tend to focus more on presenting a show to the audience rather than focus on the lyrics.
This is a song by Gunplay ft Rick Ross called "Aiight"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGCQk9zExbE
This song, according to the lyrics, are about how Gunplay and Rick Ross are rich and are the men. They boast about their cars, money and their thuggish persona. This is the typical hip-hop type lyrics.
However the music video says otherwise.
Next he goes to Gunplay's house and asks to get more money by selling drugs. Gunplay denies him on this request.
Now the man asks to use his toilet, but instead he sneak into Gunplay's room and steals a bunch of money.
He is then caught spending his money on a new car and in a gentleman's club.
This leads to Gunplay getting revenge by taking aim to the man head with a gun.

Performance
A performance music video is when the artist is performing the song. So for example he/she would be dancing, miming the words, socialising or showing off.
This song is about how all the girls love "Chief Sosa" (Chief Keef) and he also expresses how his gang is better than others. Like "Aiight", it is too a typical hip-hop song. He performs the whole song in his house with his gang. The video follows the exact description of what a performance video is. He socialises, mimes the words, shows off and in general, performs the song.
Concept
A concept music video is when it is based a concept or an idea which is usually obscure/unusual/surreal for the audience. However this obscurity is what attracts the audience.
This song is mainly about weed and how SchoolBoyQ drinks and smokes and enjoys it very much.
Bradley your descriptions of the three different styles are very basic and your narrative description is incorrect. Your analysis was meant to include Media Language (Cinematography, Mise-En-Scene, Sound and Editing) discussing the roles of these in your analysis. This needs to me much more detailed.
