Music Genres
Select music genres that appeal to your target market.
Hip Hop Music
Hip hop is more than a genre: it’s a cultural movement sweeping up music, poetry, dance, art, fashion, and political philosophy. A lot of people use rap and hip-hop synonymously. For the most part, hip-hop was defined and embraced by young, urban, working-class African-Americans. While the origins of hip-hop popularity started in America during the 1980s, it has since evolved and spread globally into the cultural zeitgeist influencing trends worldwide.

Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as “rock and roll” in the United States. It often borrows from other musical and cultural forms. It is certainly arguable that by the end of the 20th century rock was the world’s dominant form of popular music. Originating in the United States in the 1950s, it spread to other English-speaking countries and across Europe in the ’60s, and by the ’90s its impact was obvious globally (if in many different local guises). Rock’s commercial importance was by then reflected in the organization of the multinational recording industry, in the sales racks of international record retailers, and in the playlist policies of music radio and television.

Most pop songs are between two and five minutes long, and the lyrics are usually about the joys and problems of love and relationships.
