pop music

Popular music. A collective genre, also referred to as Pop, Chart Music, Top 40, or Hits, it primarily focuses on wide circulation, sales and the marketability of the "artists" than on creative or artistic content. Pop can range from Dance, R&B, Rap, Country and Rock, but is generally the most "diluted" form of any genre it emulates. Pop songs generally have a 3-minute, hook/verse structure (although many ballads have made it to the charts) written for immediate likability, often written by corporate record label executives, and "pushed" by a front-person or people, commonly referred to as the artist or artists.

When initially identifying a pop artist, mass production and circulation are the biggest indicators. Check mainstream media/entertainment outlets, such as MTV, VH1, E!, Rolling Stone magazine, or the "New Releases" or "Heavy Rotation" section of the local music store.

Pop Music

a tamed crappy genre which is destroying music (bring back punk). Not only is the music manufactured but the pop star's life is manufactured, they marry someone, divorce them so they can write a bloody book about it! once a pop act has released one bloody album they get someone to write a biography (aka kiss there ass) about them and put the word unofficial on it so it'll look more cool, cool my arse. Absorbed by the fucking public who dont know shit about actual music (rock music where the band writes there own songs). Basically the apocolypse of music until another sex pistols turns up and fixes it.
