But it wasn't until the arrival of the iconoclastic Nadeem F. Paracha in 1990 that music journalism started to be taken as a serious form of journalism in Pakistan.
Even though over the years many more young writers have entered the field, Paracha remains to be a huge influence and is also considered to be the pioneer of "proper music journalism" in Pakistan.
