Task 2- genre choice

The genre I have chosen as a theme for my magazine will be UK rap. This is because UK rap is a modern (some may say new) genre which I personally enjoy listening to and have listened to throughout my teenage years. As a young man living in London, attributes like daily struggles and emerging from a lesser position is inspiring for us young people who live in such a heavily populated city, there is a constant sense of competition and high standards and music enables us to leave that reality even if it is for a moment. UK rap is a genre which is also not very commonly represented or featured in magazines, this genre is not necessarily directed towards a niche audience but at the same is not extremely popular. It will definitely be something unique and exciting to work on as a project and I thoroughly look forward to providing people with an insight to something which i believe everybody is somewhat associated with.
