Focusing on one of the most popular languages on GitHub (see the annual top 10 list etc) is a good approach, especially if you don't have tons of industry experience. Once you have that foundation I think it's easier to choose general or specific. I've done a little bit of both but mostly generalist most experienced in Python. If you're going to focus on a specific language, make sure you're applying it to a problem where it makes sense.
