that's not the meaning of popular music

>>73781658
pop is an ambiguous term. most of the time when people talk about pop music they mean radio pop.

So how do you define popular music? do you honestly believe no songs that were made by classical composers are can be classified as "popular music"?

>power electronics is a subgenre of noise!
they're both pop you retards

>>73782005
popular music is music manufactured and published by labels, and encompasses all rock music
mozart didn't compose in favor of albums, no classical composer did

Pop music is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form in the United States and United Kingdom during the mid-1950s.[4] The terms "popular music" and "pop music" are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many styles. "Pop" and "rock" were synonymous terms until the late 1960s, when they were increasingly used in opposition from each other.

Here is a better example

Rock wasn't as developed artistically in the 60's as it is today. there are alot of pop-rock songs

Not that it's a bad thing, because the truth is that pop music is not an inherently lesser form of art
