Popular Culture

Pop culture could be defined as the types of entertainment that most people in a society enjoy, for example films, tv programmes and popular music. It is the cultural activities or commercial products reflecting, suited to, or aimed at the tastes of the general masses of people. This documentary of Pharrell in Tokyo represents pop culture in Tokyo from a fasion and music perspective and what is important for Tokyo youth right now.

  1. I totally enjoyed tracking down the Pharrell documentary link. I had never heard of him before and spent some time checking additional YouTubes. Thanks for costing me half an hour LOL (laughing out loud).

    I think your definition of pop culture is a good starting point. But I wonder if we need to be more specific in stating who it targeted at than "general masses of people."
