It is not hard to discover something different when you see one and music is not an exception. Having the ability to listen to different kinds of music has given me that privilege to be able to tell the differences between the types of music I've listened to.
Interestingly each country and tribe has a unique type of music they are well known for almost the same way there exists different cultures across continents.
Having been a good listener of music I figured out there is a slight or as a matter of fact big change in the type of music we listen to in today's world than the olden days songs. It is understandable to know that songs can be used to pass a message to individuals, groups or more but the type of message a song carries matters a lot.
Most old school songs bear good messages that can inspire, motivate and not be too filled with much of the F word of fxCK and sxx.
Children can easily absorb things like these while listening to music and music is something that goes deep down the hearts and souls of its listeners. I'm one of the people who still believes that one of the easiest ways to learn is to turn things into songs. If you can't easily forget songs, consciously or subconsciously it will be quite difficult to be able to neglect or forget the message which the song also carries.
Most people also have the tendency of reacting towards the type of song they listen to.
For instance, someone who listens to songs that gives the inspiration of making money regardless of how the money is made that it's still money, a song sung by a supposed gangster or drug lord will do nothing but to inspire and encourage others to go for the money or the way of life regardless. Also to make things balanced, for someone to listen to a song and act or feel persuasion to add according to the messages he extracted from the song or music it shows that his mind has been towards that angle as his area of interest and in fact most times when people make choice of the music they want to play they may have gotten even the least clue of what the song was going to be about except in situations where you have to tune up a radio or television to start hearing the type of songs you never really prepared yourself for.
Most musicians of the old used their songs as a means of addressing the masses and even calling the attention of the government to the areas where they are not doing right. And some of these musicians were blunt with words and expressions back then.
The improvement in today's music can be noticed in the area of advanced music equipment being used and how easy and stress free it's becoming to even create good music. Nowadays someone can easily pick up their portable devices and produce a beat that can go viral or even sing a song that can have better song quality than that of the old schools.
I love these improvements especially in the area of advancements in musical equipment but my earnest desire is to hear those types of music that can revive the hearts and minds of the ones who have almost lost hope in humanity, those type of song which can still get to the hearing of those in power to know that the world could be a more better place when there is peace and harmony existing among everyone. I want to hear a modern song that condemns evil and terrible acts among the youth and encourages them to take life easy, not to be lazy and not to leave by fraud or armed robbery.
Lastly I want to thank every lover of music and you who have spared your beautiful time to read through my post. Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
