Popular Music

The top 100 songs on the Billboard Top 100 tells a lot about of society today. Four out of the ten have sexual references within those songs. This shows many things, one being that people in this society arn't afraid to boast or discuss sex. Back in the fifties this would never been okayed or allowed. So this shows the change in soceity and what people are interested in now. Also four out of ten are some sort of love song and since the teenage world mostly controls the top 100 this shows what people are interested in hearing, what they can relate to or something that they find interesting. The popular genere at this point in time would have to be pop because six out of the ten songs had the genre of pop. This shows that soceity likes to listen to upbeat music that could probably put them in a better mood.
