THE RISE OF MINORITIES FIGHTING FOR PRESS COVERAGE

The emerging ethnic music industry in the UK is encouraging and a significant number of this trend are independently-owned record labels and self-promoting artists.

The rise of ethnic social networking sites, independent pirate television and radio channels like Channel U, BlackChat, Choice FM are testimony to this.

This can be described as the ethnic community taking matters into their hands. This is a result of an industry of rejection. The objects of these mediums like Black Chat (the social networking site) is to create a following which the industry will have to take eventual notice of as they constitute as key parts of future target demographics.

Someone needs to speak for this generation in board rooms across the world. We need it fast.
