In today’s music of the 21st century, we have different artists try to describe what’s going on around them and what’s happening in the world. For rappers they use what’s going on around them and passionately tell their story. For example like Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Eminem, Jay-Z, DJ Khaled. These rappers’ experience influence most of their words/lyrics in their songs. Sometimes people listen to hip-hop to dance to it or just make them happy, like any other type of genre of music.
Some new releases on Spotify that you can tune into to, is “Motor Sport” by Migos, Nicki Minaj, and Cardi B. Another song is “Wolves” by Selena Gomez, it’s a cool song, I would say that it’s more of a pop song to listen to. If you want to listen to a very good pop artist, one of them is Kelly Clarkson. Kelly just came out with a new song called, “The Meaning of Life.” My prediction says, that it’s probably going to be about her view or opinion on life.
If you like rock and roll music listen to “Pacific Daydream” by WEEZER. It’s a pretty good song to me and if you like rock I would totally recommend it. Most of the songs that you hear on the radio today are very interesting. There’s more variety of music in today’s time and increasingly more people are trying to find different ways to create better music, especially for teenagers. These are the people who download most of the music out there on their phones. A high number of teenagers today, like to listen to rap or hip-hop music, sometime even pop. Some of these artists include Drake, Eminem, DJ Khaled, Rihanna, Migos, Kesha, and other ones that you would hear on the radio. When you’re an artist you try to help or make the person feel of what you’re going through, in words in music. So tune into theses new releases!
