What are pop music songs about today? How are they the same or different as pop music songs we've been studying in class?  Why?

  2. I believe the content of the pop music we have been studying has been more conservative then the pop music today although meanings have not changed much. Depending on the genre most music is about drugs or alcohol, women, life experiences, and genres of music example would be rock and roll song about rock and roll and so on.

  3. To be honest with you I think that the music today has lost it's character. Pop music used to be about love and now all you here today is how I have all this money and you don't. It's actually pathetic. Now of course there's exceptions to the rule but it seems like most artist have lost the whole meaning of it all.

  4. Some Pop music today is all about money, sex, drug etc. Pop music is different today than what we are studying. This is because of the new technology especially the computer and the different types of instrument that we have today. The music today to me sounds better and clearer that the ones we are studying.

    Different decades lead's to different styles of pop music.The effects are the same and the earlier music was the innovation that helped to influence everything that we listen to on the radio today.

  6. Pop music has kept the same kind of beats and tempo, though many things are the same, a lot of pop music today has evolved to singing about love interests, lifestyles and overall singing about peoples feelings in the best way they seem fit.

  7. In my opinion pop music today has many differences and similarities to the music we have been studying in class. Yes, the delivery of present day pop music is sometime more bold, modern and some R-rated, but I don’t think the main underlining purposes of the music has not changed much. Today's pop music is experienced in many different styles, genres, and tempos and often times convey some sort of message/statement…this is not very different from the pop music we are studying (they just did it with better taste).
