What Is Pop Music?

[CeLLar-DooR]

I'd say that practically, pop is a sub genre of all other genres

 

[GOAT]

Isnt the king of pop a black guy from Gary Indiana?

Isnt the king of pop a black guy from Gary Indiana who died a white woman from Hollyweird?

JT is a pop artist.

His music will be deemed pop.

Im not sure whats hard to overstand.

I will watch Buttons clip to get a better idea i guess

He makes rnb music and it's called "pop" , I don't understand why that's so hard to understand fam

 

[Goldie]

That's not true R&B fam... that's pop. Nothing wrong with it but when you think of the essence of r&b, this aint it.

I said it's hip hop and rnb, more so hip hop than anything.

Because he not only makes R&B

He started out doing Boy Band ballads

And also put out a country album.

He is not simply an R&B artist


....which Omarion is

I addressed this in the OP. When black artists cross over they call it pop.

Goat's just defending his people like always

If Nsync is "pop" then so should B2k be. Justin's solo work has been RnB, period.

My brain is leaking and im a lil dizzy

 

[Goldie]

All that defending white privilege does that to you

 

[Word....Life]

[GOAT]

All that defending white privilege doest that to you

I dont like the way u portray my character. Its slanderous.

Jackson sent a memo to MTV requesting that VJs refer to him as The King of Pop in 1991.
MTV VJs were required to call him The King of Pop at least twice a week and had to note when they did it, in case Jackson requested clips. Some hosts had to re-tape entire shows to work in the new nickname.

If Jazmine Sullivan sung Rollin in the Deep it would be played heavily on your local RnB and oldies station not Kiss whatever number the pop station


On the other hand let Adele had sung I Need You Bad


:Pathetic:

 

[MoodGawd]

So let me get this right. If “oops i did it again” was sung by a black woman, without changing anything about the song itself, it would be considered r&b?
