My name is Barbara and I’m a PhD student at London South Bank University, UK. As I’m currently researching hip hop journalism for my thesis, I’d love to have a chat with editorial staff at the Beat Talk to gain some insight into the magazine’s approach to and take on hip hop journalism and its editorial strategies – both in print and on-line.

I would be grateful if you could find some time to discuss this further – either via phone, e-mail or in person. I could then provide you with more information on my work, and hopefully arrange for a brief interview?

Your input would be precious and much appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Barbara Panuzzo
