The use of a breaking voice allowed Ray Charles to express his unique approach and emotion towards his music. Ray charles was influenced by people like Art Tatum, Nat King Cole,etc... #F22POPMUS

Wald's assessment is definitely true for today's music audience this is mostly due because of how accessible music is due to things like spotify, and other streaming services. Where as listening to music live is not quite as easy. #F22POPMUS

Music definitely changed in the 50's but it is also appealed to a younger audience at the time as well.But it doesn't mean the music is "schlock" and is not a reason to dismiss this music,and it can still be valued for other reasons. #F22POPMUS

Bluetooth air-pods have basically made me accessible to music wherever i am which makes me listen to music all day pretty much.Listening to music has helped me and many others discover who they are. #F22POPMUS

A lot of modern popular music in this day and age has glorified the use of illegal drugs and alcohol to almost make it seem normal. It has created a "false need" fpr these drugs,not that this has made the music or the lyrics worse or "Dumbed Down".#F22POPMUS
