QuickWrite 11/10

1. How can social issues, such as race and religion affect how someone views a certain genre of music?

2. Was this a one-time situation/incident or is this going on in any genres today?

3. Do certain genres of music reflect a particular population where it is unacceptable to step outside those boundaries?

  1. 1. People are going to have a hard time understanding certain genres of music. For instance someone may not understand a religious band because they are not religious.

  2. I really like your first question. I think too often, people don't even give a type of music the time of day because they don't like the musics culture. I am guilty of this sometimes. But it turns out music from different cultures can really be cool if you actually listen to it. Religion strongly affects the music people listen to as well. For example, some things used in rap songs wouldn't really be approved by a strong practicing Catholic.
