Beyond informative and entertaining features, concert recaps, and album reviews, Turn It Up covers major issues associated with music and the music industry since the turn of the millennium. Kot delves deeply into issues that matter regarding the essential acts of the 21st century, the business of music as a whole, and the Chicago music scene in particular. With chapters grouped by genrepop, rock, and rapand a catch-all final chapter containing insights on digital music, record labels, and the evolving "e;music biz,"e; Turn It Up is an easy-to-follow guide to where the music world has come from and where it is going.
