What is Pop Music?
Pop music 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 diverse styles. “Pop” and “rock” were roughly synonymous terms until the late 1960s, when they became increasingly differentiated from each other.
Generally, pop music is associated with a certain sound,texture, and/or approach to songwriting and performing that tends to be more simplistic or mainstream than other types of popular music. It is usually geared towards teenage and young adult audiences, and is often heavily influenced by current trends in fashion, design, culture, and technology. Pop music typically has a strong melody line, catchy hooks, and easy-to-understand lyrics.
