Today's music VS. Old music


You have all heard people say that "Today’s music" is better, or that "Old music" has no comparison to Morden music. If you look at it, yes there are some differences, but you can still find some of "today’s music" that is a lot like the "old music."

Most people that say "old music" is good are in their 40s or above, mostly because they grew up with it. Also they hear one song, like rap, can't understand the lyrics, so they assume that all of "Today’s music" is like that. "Their music" would be Folk Music, Classical Music and Raag. Artists like Elvis Presley (King of western classical music), and Nusrat Fateh Ali khan (King of Eastern Classical Music). They all got smash hits in that era, but now most teens have no idea who they are.

Now "today’s music" is loved by teens and people in their 20s-30s. Now we have artists hitting the charts in Hip hop, rock and rap. Justin Bieber, Enrique iglesias and Eminem are the world renowned personalities. They have got awards almost every year from all over the world. Their songs are not only for America, east or Europe but their songs are listened to all over the world.

"Old music" and "today’s music" both have their own respect in their own era and in some cases the other era as well (such as Michael Jackson.) One thing that people have to remember is that today’s music is just the modified form of Old music. Without the "Old music" we would not have music today.
