Product Description
This work covers the relationship between popular music and youth culture. Reviewing existing literature originating in sociology, cultural and media studies, it goes on to make illustrative use of studies of dance music, rap, bhangra and rock to examine how these musical styles become part of daily life in different urban settings. An analytic framework is developed for understanding the relationship between youth culture and popular music that conceptualizes consumption and production in the context of locality.
