In-depth interview
Name: Samira Ahmed



1) What is your favourite music genre and why? “I would have to say that my favourite music genre is R&b, I like it because I feel that no matter what mood I find myself in, I can always find a way to relate to it. I’m also very fond of it because it’s become very mainstream over the past decade and all of my friends listen to it as well, I enjoy the heavy beats and catchy tunes.” 2) What is your favourite music video and why? “My favourite music video at the moment would have to be ‘Chris Brown; Holla at me’, I like it because he has managed to performance and introduce a new style of dancing which is called ‘Jerkin’, And I think that’s it’s important for an artist to always be willing to show the public/ their fans new things.” 3) Are your familiar with the music genre ‘Dubstep’? If so, what ideas spring to mind? “Yes, I am slightly familiar with the Dubstep genre, I know that it’s a fairly new genre, I like the beats, but I don’t think that it’s something I would be able to listen to all of the time. I don’t have any particular ideas about it, but it’s ability to get everybody on the dance floor springs to mind.”

1) What is your favourite music genre and why? “My favourite music genre would have to be ‘Electronic’, because the crazy beats can always put me in a really good mood, even when I’m feeling down, I know that most people may not be fond of it, But I wish they would give it a chance, It would be amazing if one day Electronic was in the category of mainstream music” 2) What is your favourite music video and why? “My favourite music video of all time is ‘The prodigy; Smack my bitch up’, I absolutely love it because it causes so much controversy, I mean the fact that we think it’s a guy all throughout and then it turns out to be a woman is madness, I love the way it’s able to mess with the viewers head so much” 3) Are your familiar with the music genre ‘Dubstep’? If so, what ideas spring to mind? “Yeah, I like Dubstep music, it reminds me of electronic a bit, but then again most of it is a lot more dark, grimey and sinister, when I think of Dupstep the one thing I think of is a bunch of teenagers in a club scene raving to some intense beats”
