4Music is a very diverse music channel, which shows a wide range of music including our chosen genre of R ‘n’ B. The latest play list created for the channel is a dance and R ‘n’ B entry, showcasing tunes such as, ‘No Air,’ by Jordin Sparks and ‘When I Grow Up,’ by the Pussycat Dolls.

Like its sister channels, C4 and E4, 4Music is targeted at a young, modern audience, which is obvious by the music and music-programmes shown. The songs that are broadcast are new and found in all the British music charts, so would be known and liked by a modern audience. This fits in with our intended audience, who are young R ‘n’ B lovers between the ages of 16 and 24.
