Pop music for everyone and beyond
Pop music term comes from “popular music”, and the truth is that pop music is really not a specific gender, but the music that is commercial. The pop music is the music that has appeal to the audience, which wants to buy albums from their favorite pop artists. There are pop music tops, in which you will notice different types of genres, from R&B to hip hop or jazz. And yes, pop music is loved by everyone, because, if we like it or not, we hear those pop songs all day long at the radio and at television, on the music channels.
For example the Black Eyed Peas band is considered to deliver one of the most loved pop albums of the last year. It is true, the released singles “I gotta feeling” or “Boom Boom Pow” etc has a great combination of melody and rhythm. All I have to say is that all of the singles have reached the Billboard Hot 100. For example the “I gotta feeling” won at the Grammy awards the title of “Best Pop Performance”. Pop music has many influences, for example will.i.am stated that he had the idea of the sound of this album after a trip in Australia. We can’t speak about pop artists that are famous these days without mentioning Lady Gaga. She even has a biography (written by Emily Herbert) that has the title “Lady Gaga: Queen of Pop”. Lady Gaga is her stage name, but her real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta. She recognizes that she was inspired by other famous pop artists like Queen (one of their songs gave her the idea of her stage name), Madonna and of course, the great Michael Jackson. In an interview, Lady Gaga recognized that her goal is to make a revolution in the pop music.
Madonna was and still is a pop start with worldwide success. She was the Lady Gaga of the past, 25 years ago, when she was different from all other pop artists. The truth is that she still is. Madonna has many fans, and I think she is a part of pop music, because after all, she is the artist that had the most pop hits in the United States. So that is way she is an idol for other singers. Of course that if we speak about pop music, we must remember also Britney Spears, Beyonce, ABBA, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Whitney Houston etc.
