POP, A GENRE Libby Bendall
ORIGINS
In the mid
1950’s, in the
United Kingdom,
the term “pop
music” was
created,
describing Rock
and Roll and the
new music styles
it influenced.
Pop’s Main Men
(and Women)
• Michael Jackson
• ABBA
• The Beach Boys
• Lady Gaga
• Madonna
• Coldplay
Awards to
be awarded
Currently, no shows
are dedicated solely
to pop awards, but
they do play a major
role in other award
shows e.g.:
• Teen choice
awards
• Top of the pops
Although we have a
general idea as to
where pop originated
and what it refers to
(music with Popular
appeal, there is no
concrete evidence to
suggest who initiated
such a large genre.
KEY
FEATUR
ES
Pop songs are generally
catchy, melodic tunes,
often repetitive phrases
or riffs will make up the
main part of a song.
They are generally no
longer than 5 minutes
long and combine
rhythms that are
“orientated around
dance” and therefore
energetic in an attempt
to please a wide range of
people. The more people
enjoy the song, the more
Walk walk fashion
baby…
Due to their music being popular, pop artists
set the style for the modern age. This places
a great responsibility on their shoulders to
wear the right trends and not dissuade their
fan base from idolising them any longer.
Their clothes will be stylish and make a
statement, but it’s got to be the right one!
Their popularity relies as much on their dress
sense as it does on their music.
