- 2. Age Pop has a wide variety of target audiences which can be from the age of 11+ depending on the language used by the artists and the context of the video. Although the target audience may not be aimed at that age but the fact is that children still listen to artists from the pop genre as it is not one type of music e.g. Classic. There is a wide range of different styles of pop music such as rap and rnb which can also come under the pop genre as they are popular types of music which means that this genre has a wider target audience.

However this depends on the type of music genre e.g. Males are most likely to make rap songs than females which means their target audience will be males as they would look up to the music artist they listen to and want to become like. On the other hand for pop in general there are more female singers like Cher Lloyd which means that young teenage girls will look up to her and see her a role model as she is a young lady who knows what she wants and is independent and as a result they would listen to her songs and feel as if they were made for them.

Interests The interest of pop target audience can vary as pop has lots of different types of sub genres of music which are all different and unique in their own way which means they will interest a lot of different people with different choices of music in them sub genres.
