Pop is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form in the United States and United Kingdom during the mid-1950s. The terms “popular music” and “pop music” are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many different styles.
Pop music is eclectic, and often borrows elements from other styles such as urban, dance, rock, Latin, and country. A distinguishing feature of pop music is its heavy use of recorded vocals, often performed by a single artist, as opposed to typical instrumental performances. Another notable feature of pop music is its catchy melodies, which are often designed to be immediately accessible and easy to remember.
