If a user "chooses a genre" what does the data look like? Before your code does anything. Is it well formed?
If you want to set ['Genre']['id'] to some value, what does the data look like before that? It seems like you're trying to override the user's selection, rather than add to it. Do you want to add ID=51 *in addition* to whatever genre ID the user passes?
