Music journalism in Pakistan has grown especially with the growth of the country's pop music industry and scene. Popular music journalism was uncommon in the country until about 1985 when Karachi's tabloid, The Star started printing reviews written by Farrukh Moriani who is also considered to be the country's first ever pop music critic. At the end of the 1980s and with the coming of the Liberal government of Benazir Bhutto in 1988, the once repressed and frowned upon (by the Islamist dictatorship of General Mohammad Zia-ul-Haq), Pakistani pop music emerged from the underground and started gaining mainstream popularity. With this came another pioneering Pakistani music and fashion critic Fifi Haroon who was amongst the first in the country to undertake full features on the growing local music scene. Another frontrunner in this regard was M. Ali Tim. The arrival of Nadeem F. Paracha in 1990 that music journalism started to be taken as a serious form of journalism in Pakistan. With Paracha was Farjad Nabi (at The News International) and Aysha Aslam (at the Herald). The New's Instep magazine also began to do regular features on the Pakistani music scene. ==See also== *Fasi Zaka *NFP clones *Muniba Kamal *Bandbaja *The News International *Music Critics 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pakistani music journalism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
