According to Listo Discoteca "Pop Music originated in the US and UK". The term "Pop" is short for "popular" which refers to popular music.
Pop music is inspired by many different genres and its composed of many different instruments.Most people, when first introduced to pop music, thought of it as yet another bad influence,
relating it to sex, drugs and partying but what they don't know is that Pop music could incorporate many messages. One example of this is the pop song Hey Ya! by the group Outkast.The songs pop-y acoustic guitar, steady and rhythmic beat and
catchy vocals keep you distracted from the deep lyrics. Andre 3000 from Outkast told Genius about the songs meaning and he said "“Hey Ya!” is pretty much about the state of relationships in the 2000s. It’s about some people who stay together in relationships because of tradition, because somebody told them, “You guys are supposed to stay together.”
But you pretty much end up being unhappy for the rest of your life." This goes on to show that pop music is not just superficial but can also portray deep messages.
