About Pop Music.


A term that originally derives from an abbreviation of "popular”. The genre popular
music originated in its modern form in the 1950s, deriving from rock and roll. The term
"pop song" is first recorded as being used in 1926. According to Grove Music Online, the
term "pop music" "originated in Britain in the mid- 1950s as a description for rock and
roll and the new youth music styles that it influenced Chambers' Dictionary mentions the
contemporary usage of the term "pop art". Since the late 1950s, however, pop has had the
special meaning of non-classical music. Some of the most well-known names in history
such as; The Beatles, Michael Jackson, The rolling Stones, ABBA etc…

It was then called pop music as it became a popular source of entertainment for
many people, be it in radio or live performances.

Pop music covers a wide range of songs from folk, country and Western, to the
ballads, standards and rock n’ roll.

What Is It

Popular Music
Popular music started as a body of musical genres from the African-
American music. Most of these musical genres are offshoot of the earliest musical
styles as a result of human living in the countryside, cultural orientation and pride,
political issues, historical accounts of experiences by concerned authors/writers,
or simply the desire for providing amusement/entertainment.
Popular music has quickly earned appreciation from people of all cultures,
not just by the Americans, because of its clarity of message, and the relatively liberal
manner of presentation to the listening crowd. Although it has only sprouted in the
20th century, its impact to the people is enormous, that it has driven much crowd
and has taken many new and varied forms.
