agree  invguy: Oldtime (без тире) - като oldtimer, не толкова като old; city - от city vs. village, затова не town.

agree  Yuliyan Gospodinov (X): все пак не е ли по-добре traditional urban song

  -> да, действително е по-добре!

neutral  invguy: Urban music е по-скоро съвременно понятие, напр. рап-ът е такава музика. Освен това като начин на създаване и разпространение ст. гр. п. не са точно folk, техните корени не са солидни (етнос), а преходни (статус).
