Theme / Music & Personality

Exploring who we are through the music we love.

Objective

I want readers to better understand music genres and reflect on how their music taste connects to their personality and feelings.

Audience

College students who listen to music daily and enjoy talking about music preferences.

The approach

I create content that links various music genres to who you are. Therefore, I try to create content that allows students to take a moment to think about how they feel, who they are, or what they like. So I combine music culture with self-expression content where I explain various genres that shape identity.
