Sports or Music (Music)

After speaking on sports in my previous post, I have decided to write about music this time since I was given the choice between music and sports. In everyone’s daily life, music is something that everyone listens to. If there is someone in this planet who does not listen to music, it would be either he or she lived in the jungle for their whole life or they might be captured by underground monster. Music industry is one of the highest money making “scheme” ever in the economy. Most musician are not affected by the economic downturn because they are protected by contracts which liable them to their direct income.

In this world there are so many types and genres of music that it is very hard to keep count of. There are reggae, rap, blues, rock, metal, country and so much more. Different people have different taste in music. Some prefer having a loud noise that pumps the heart to the core and some prefer having a cooling beat that relaxes their heart.

One thing that the types of music that have in common is that, all of them are able to release stress. People look at rap as a symbol of violence, but when the lyrics are actually read and the inner meaning is found there is a different side of rap. There have been people who said that metal music is bad and it goes against religion, but then again most of metal songs are about love.

There is also reggae music where most people say that reggae is all about marijuana. Most people miss out the fact that reggae is about the low tempo and slow instrumental. Reggae music is sung with so much of passion in it and there are a lot of moral values that can be learned from reggae. Like for an example Bob Marley’s hit song Is This Love, where many people thought the song was referring to marijuana. The song was actually referring to love.

Rap songs have proved its worth in the music industry, beating out the other entire genre. Rap which became more hardcore when rappers such as Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G, Suga, 50 cent, Eminem and Snoop dogg. Even though there are still criticism over rap, that rap is bad for children and it would create more and more violent, people still fail to realize that what is being rapped is not fake but the truth of the untold world that the government might be trying to cover up.

People may criticize the different types of genre’s all day long, day or night but it is a well known fact that becoming someone who creates music that pleases others is not something that is as easy as eating left over pizza’s, but it is something that actually turns the world around. Music is always going to be music, may it be pop, rock, blues, country, hip hop, rNb, rap, metal or what so ever, they all have the same motive, which is to entertain people.
