are already considered as pop. It is a mixture of elements like
urban, jazz, and dance. It could also be said that it makes use of
other genres of music to create a pop song that creates a big hit to
the crowd. A pop song usually has expressed meanings or thoughts from
the singers and writers which is expressed in a dynamic tempo.
Pop
music has different comments and critics based on different
perspectives.
People
are fond of it because of its vigorous and energetic tempo. This is a
major reason why people tune in to pop. With this kind of beat, they
are subjected to be jolly and active. One example of this is dancing
to the beat. The movements in dancing are based on to what the tempo
of the song is. For example, a pop music is danced in an energetic
and fast manner called street or pop dance while country music is
danced in a smooth, slow, and precise manner like the folk dance.
People
sometimes dislike pop music because of its song composition. Some
songs contain foul words that offend the listeners. In addition to
this, they also abhor it because it influences the youth in using
lewd and indecent words. Some other reasons are the meaning

influences to the people who might get the hidden message especially
the youth.

the meaning, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the music.
