A Quote by Pedro Capo

Pop is fusing more with the urban; urban is becoming the new pop. The two worlds are colliding and kind of merging.

I'm not going to do anything crazy, but I want to do music that I'm passionate about. I'm finally at an age where I can do the music that I grew up loving, which was urban pop, '90s music. I grew up listening to the divas, so I'm very happy to finally do urban pop. I hope that it's received well, and it has been so far.

Ariana Grande

We've gone through the urban renewal cycle in the '60s and '70s that really did a lot of damage to the fabric of urban life - neighborhoods bulldozed and highways pushed through, and all that kind of stuff that really destroyed the kind of social underpinning and the kind of mom and pop stores and all the stuff that makes a community viable.

David Byrne

I end up pleading my case to alternative programmers - you're telling me that my music is too dark for pop, too pop for alternative, and urban radio won't touch it - so we have a record that doesn't fit in. And what is more alternative than that?

Halsey

I want to do more urban R&B with a little bit of pop, but not much. I want to have that soulful kind of side of me come out.

Jessica Sanchez

I have a very pop voice, but there's so much of me I associate mostly with urban music, so I try to blend the two.

Aubrey O'Day

Since the beginning of my recording career in 1975, I have had a little difficulty because the pop stations think I'm a jazzer who doesn't have a feeling for pop, so it's hard to get my records played. Similarly, black urban radio doesn't understand that with my R&B roots, I am more than a jazz singer. So I get pigeonholed.

Al Jarreau

'We Are Pop Culture' is my clothing line for women that started with just T-shirts. The clothing line is urban street wear. It's for women that feel confident in their own skin and want to express themselves. The whole idea is to play with modern pop culture and previous pop culture using art and sayings.

Christina Milian

I think one thing you could probably say for all my albums is that they're all pretty eclectic pop. There's always a little bit of urban influence, some dance, a little bit of country, singer-songwriter, pop-rock. I like everything! On every album you can find that.

Kelly Clarkson

My personal style reflects my music. My music and how I dress is just how I express myself; it's just me. My music is urban pop, and my style of dressing is urban but still girly. I like that combination. The contrast is very nice.

Becky G

We were talking about urban youth. And by urban I mean lives in a city not urban as in black like white people use it.

Hannibal Buress

My guitar playing is a synthesis of traditional American acoustic style and Urban Pop and R&B.

John Oates

My guitar playing is a synthesis of traditional American acoustic style and Urban Pop and RB.

John Oates

There are so many urban pop ideas that are underserved, and I think Hollywood doesn't see us and misses the opportunity to integrate.

Russell Simmons

Urban pop culture is its own phenomena that is for some reason is left out of Hollywood. It's the most mainstream thing there is.

Russell Simmons

We would like to have a great future, so we need to think about the urban philosophy, the urban problems, and the construction of the city. That's the new politics, maybe.

Burhan Sonmez

Music changes constantly, especially when you're a 'pop' artist. What's mainstream or pop always has new influences, new sounds, and I love that challenge of keeping up with it, which is important as a pop artist.
