It's just plain confusing, you have the classic rock genre in the 60s. You have so many rock genres but absolutely zero indication on what's what. By far my least favorite video, thumbs down 👎
It's often acknowledged that people by about age 45 have a hard time liking what is popular. Trends move on. People who liked Opera and Ballads in the 1910's may have similarly dismissed the Big Band Swing/Jazz era.
@@planeetgeklungel5884 thats a plus ... house and techno take as little tallent as hip hop ...i like hip hop but it just doesnt seasure up to 4 guys singing and playing instruments
My thoughts exactly. I'd like to see him disaggregate Western from Country. I'm curious to see how those two genres have rivaled one another for the last 100 years.
I think these graphs of what sells, doesn't reflect the styles of what the radio plays. Country stations now sound more like pop/rap with a country vocalist.
Interesting: The Jazz boom was much earlier than many believe (as often depicted in contemporary film) and the disco spike was much sooner. Country & Western is a mainstay.
electronic music got split into a lot of sub-divisions. I feel like hip hop/rap has a ton of subdivisions as well. Would be interesting to see electronic as one genre instead of split up. Just call it EDM. On the final screen 5:43, if you add electro, techno, house together it becomes #1 as a genre.
@@purpleaki06 Agreed. I've been listening to electronic music for decades and hate the term EDM. Also not sure what they are the classifying house and techno as. I love house and techno but don't think it's ever been popular enough to be that high on the list. I'm guessing techno pop was like Depeche Mode and other eighties bands with lots of synths and drum machines.
@@purpleaki06 No, what you and many call EDM is festival house, peak-time techno, future bass, etc. But originally EDM is the broader genre regrouping about half of electronic music. Also these 2 categories you're suggesting don't work
@@Billinois78 What? He is using RUclips Library copyright-free music. What does that have to do with what music he listens to? And let's be fair, all country and hip hop sounds the same.
I think they did this for 2 reasons: 1: To make the list more dynamic, otherwise rock would have sat at the top of the list for most of the video, which would have been a boring watching experience, people would have clicked off, less money for the channel (Most likely reason) 2: Possibly to better reflect the tastes of each era (Merging Rap and Hip-hop made them show up on this list earlier, which reflects a change in taste starting in the mid/late 90's) An argument could be made for favouritism, but I think it probably just comes down to viewer watch time to please the algorithm.
It’s crazy how so many genres of music that seem so fundamental to us now didn’t even exist before the 70s or 80s, I wonder what new genres of music will emerge in the next decades that will reshape the industry🤷🏼♂️
Note that this is best SELLING music. Blues music was there all along, being the heavy influence on most of what is popular today, but you wouldn't know it by this analysis. The people who were making that music were too poor to buy the albums , so they could only go hear them perform at small clubs.
Yeah, while watching this, I was puzzled at how Disco remained in the rankings into 1984, 85. People might have continued buying it, but it was completely gone from the airwaves by then.
The statistic's focus is not about popularity but about making money on some market. What market, is the question to ask. What country or continent? Based on which numbers exactly?
My thoughts exactly. Did you notice that there was no pop mentioned in the 80s either, when it was literally the most popular genre (Michael Jackson, Madonna). A lot of other genres are missing or messed up as well. Whoever created this video has no idea about music genres.
Pop music is under the Pop Rock and Electropop categories, since stars like Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Taylor Swift often blend rock, pop, and electronic styles.
@@DataIsBeautifulOfficial Crazy to see that Pop isn't that popular anymore although it is called Pop hehe. I remember the boygroup era with Backstreet Boys, N Sync and so on and it was everywhere haha
@DataIsBeautifulOfficial I'm sorry but I call BS. There's no way that Pop Rock or Electropop are both nowhere to be seen in the 2024 chart when artists like Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, and especially Sabrina Carpenter dominated this year.
Nirvana is not alternative rock, but grunge, which is a separate genre. Both alternative rock and grunge were the most popular genres in the first half of the 90s.
This video is well made and shows excellent stats. Few other genres is missing from list like Adult Contemporary, Dance-pop and Blues music. Should pop rock under dark blue colour instead of yellow as it is subgenre of rock music?
Thanks for the feedback! Pop rock definitely has strong roots in rock, but it stands out enough to keep it with more similar pop categories. It's actually closer to genres like Disco, New Wave, Techno-pop, Europop, and Indie Pop because of its melodic focus, catchy hooks, and emphasis on mainstream appeal, rather than the raw energy and instrumentation typical of rock. Plus, various offline music charts usually combine it with pop genres as well.
I'm a little shocked the electro pop era of 2007-2014, the tropical pop/house era of 2014-2017 and the disco/synthpop revival era of 2020-2024 didn't show up in this video! Like for instance, Flowers, blinding lights, stay, levitating, save your tears, espresso etc are all some of the biggest songs of post pandemic era music, ALL would fit roughly into the same categories as Disco/synthpop. Interesting it didn't show up. Regardless great video!!
I'm thinking these graphs are worldwide? Neither Eurodance or Techno were big on the radio in the USA, ever. But they had high rankings for a while in the animation.
@@EtienneLaphaoh no... It's almost like in every aspect 99% struggle and 1% succeed. Shocking that not everyone can be inventing something new, get lucky in connection and time and start with good circumstances.
it actually started climbing faster in 97 when The Slim Shady EP dropped I was waiting to see if Hip hop would start climbing faster when it hit that year and it did
@@Ironmanpwnz Yup true, artists such as Tupac, Biggie (early-mid 90s) and then Eminem, Jay-Z, Nelly, 50 Cent, Kanye West around the late 90s and early 2000s really did help push hip hop in popularity.
Before the 1980s (or even until 2000), it seems necessary to explain what the basis for the sample collection was, and whether it was based on a region rather than representing the entire world (e.g., Country).
So Rock N Roll shows up in 1955 and and Classic Rock appears only 6 years later? How can Classic Rock exist when it's only been around for less than 7 years?
I remember in 1983, taking my first level French class in junior high, and a couple of times in the early chapters of our textbook (probably printed in the late 1970s) it mentioned Disco as a music genre. Other students giggled at these references, it already seemed so dated at the time. But I suppose there were still background sales... adults buying follow-up albums from Disco artists that were not charting on the radio anymore.
The resurgence of Ragtime in the 1930s-40s surprised me. Maybe there were people in their middle age around then, buying up collections of it based on their memories of the 1900's, meanwhile total ablum sales had not yet exploded, since kids were not buying music in bulk until the 1950s. (Or perhaps the editor lumped in a lot of piano jazz into the Ragtime bucket.)
@@8dreadLock8 For me it was the UKF days, I stopped folloing the scene around 2014, then came back to it in the 2020s. The genre is in an interesting place right now.
@@8dreadLock8 That's not how I feel personally but maybe I missed on the good releases during these years. I feel like the resurgence is happening right now
Love the Gold Stars for top genres; if I could suggest, would there be a way to have the stars change from silver outlines to gold stars when they reach position one in future videos? Just an idea
Too bad many American contemporary radio stations today don't play much techno and alternative rock music, instead playing just plain old pop, country, and hip hop/rap music.
pop music was divided up into several smaller genres for this video. Brittney for example was probably divided up under "Electro" "pop rock" and genres like that.
This better than the first iteration when all dance including Eurodance, I believe, was pretty much thrown under House music umbrella, which caused a lot of discussion in the comments. And people commenting they never heard of house music like they have never been to a dance club or any house music festival world wide the Ultra Music festival in Miami or Tomorrowland, or listened to Guetta, Van Burin, Harris, Alesso, Van Dyk or Tiesto or the very early pioneers like Mr. Fingers, Adonis, Frankie Knuckles and Robert Owens. However I had to look up techno pop not because of the genre because I equated it to techno of the rave era of the 90s. I didn't think of Kraftwerk, Bowie, Devo, Depeche Mode and Pet shop boys..To me most of these were New Wave. I guess I learned somethng new here as well.
Watching that jazz take off! “Come on babe why don’t we paint the town And all that jazz I’m gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down And all that jazz”
'Rap/HipHop' no. #1 for 24 YEARS!? ...WHY!? By COMPARISON to all other music types- it's NOT natural! ESPECIALLY because of HOW INCREDIBLY negative it gets!
The numbers of Punk and Hard Rock (Heavy Metal?) are the strangest to me. I would never think Punk made that much more revenue than Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.
Interesting. In a larger historical context, the 20s - late 40s, Jazz was the dominant genre giving way to the rock era until the turn of the millennium. Then rap and RnB took over. But Country has always been there. That probably has to do with its strong regional and cultural roots and an establishment that has been around for over a hundred years, the Grand Ole Opry. Nowadays, it seems though we are in a post genre world where no one genre stands to dominate the music scene the way that jazz or rock did. I think that has to do with the way music is presented now. There are no "gatekeepers" like terrestrial radio networks or other major outlets like MTV. Streaming is where music is sold now and that has led to the splintering of music genres in the last 10-15 years. I don't think we will ever see something like Elvis or the Beatles define a music era again.
I’m curious how you categorized people like Katy Perry and other traditional pop acts? Would that be under R&B? Rap is no doubt king rn sadly. Though i do feel like traditional punk is making a comeback again. Tbh i thought country would be higher, but I’m glad it’s not because it’s global data.
Listen to the music that you like. Listen to other types of music sometimes. Stay away from bad music or bad artists. Play good music when children are in the house or car. Some children are using swear words in their first year of school because stupid parents play hip hop at home.
Honestly this feels kind of skewed. I would have put the subgenres of Rock, Latin and Techno with the main genres. Makes it seem like they are dead compared to the other genres when they're clearly not. There are definitely subgenres for Country, R&B and Rap too. Disclaimer: I'm not biased towards a specific genre I listen to all kinds of music lol.
I had no idea techno was still around lol 3rd in 2024, wire I thought it died off in the 2010s. The late 90s were absolute bangers though at the time, clubbing.
WHERE WAS THE BIG BAND ERA MUSIC, HARD ROCK, HEAVY METAL, THRASH, PSYCHEDELIC, SOUTHERN ROCK, SOFT ROCK, UNDERGROUND, AND MANY MORE, A LOT OF TYPES WERE EXCLUDED FOR SOME REASON
How did you miss hard rock? it was climbing the chart from about 1969 until it was #3 in 1988 and went into a free fall off the chart by the mid 90's....did you even watch the video?
@@FRN2013 I realize, but plenty of these genres were seemingly merged into one & some seemingly were arbitrarily cut. Metal also seems to have been subsumed into hard rock, so I’m just basing my guess off the most similar genres.

Didn't expect the Hip-hop or Rap to be the highest selling. I though Pop will be because it's universally for all tastes of music.
Hip-hop dominates because of streaming - its numbers are massive compared to other genres right now. Pop still holds strong globally, though.
Music Evolution seems to have stopped after 2003, as today's CRap Music stays on top! Most genres only get's a good decade of leading
Was surprised the swing resurgence of the late '90s didn't make an appearance.
Swing's late 90s resurgence, while notable, never reached the top in sales like other genres, so it didn't make the cut.
I didn’t realize how popular K pop is tell now. 😮
It isn't
Marches are due their comeback!
They're more likely to pop up in film scores than mainstream charts.
So metal has never actually made it to "mainstream" or was it categorized as Hard or Alternative Rock?
'Rap/HipHop' no. #1 for 24 YEARS!? ...WHY!? By COMPARISON to all other music types- it's NOT natural! ESPECIALLY because of HOW INCREDIBLY negative it gets!
Jazz, step aside, Country, step aside, R&B, step aside, Soul, step aside, Pop Rock, step aside, Disco, step aside, Techno, step aside, Eurodance, step aside, Country, I am back, Hip Hop, step aside, breath......
The numbers of Punk and Hard Rock (Heavy Metal?) are the strangest to me. I would never think Punk made that much more revenue than Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.
Interesting. In a larger historical context, the 20s - late 40s, Jazz was the dominant genre giving way to the rock era until the turn of the millennium. Then rap and RnB took over. But Country has always been there. That probably has to do with its strong regional and cultural roots and an establishment that has been around for over a hundred years, the Grand Ole Opry.
Nowadays, it seems though we are in a post genre world where no one genre stands to dominate the music scene the way that jazz or rock did. I think that has to do with the way music is presented now. There are no "gatekeepers" like terrestrial radio networks or other major outlets like MTV. Streaming is where music is sold now and that has led to the splintering of music genres in the last 10-15 years. I don't think we will ever see something like Elvis or the Beatles define a music era again.
where does techno get such numbers? usually i meet musicians who have 5 listeners a month
because its big in asian community
Offers us 1910. Gives us 1909 just as a bonus!
I lost $100 on Polka. Damn it!
lol
I’m curious how you categorized people like Katy Perry and other traditional pop acts? Would that be under R&B?
Rap is no doubt king rn sadly. Though i do feel like traditional punk is making a comeback again. Tbh i thought country would be higher, but I’m glad it’s not because it’s global data.
Its US data mainly
Punk died in the early '80s
Techno demand is actually much higher because we know how to bootleg it, so it won't show on sales.
I was crossing my fingers🤞🤞 that Polka would hold out until the end but quickly had it all dashed!😥
Yup, we are f-up since 2000.
I am techno, call me electro, like the punk and all hiphop spectro.
Okay electro. If you say so
»Yo, yo, check this out, yo...« or MC Frontalot style 😉
@@Tuepp Ali G lmao
"It's Indie Rock and Roll for me!"
Never heard the term chanson...
It’s actually all rock and roll. One can even argue classical is rock and roll.
Rock e Disco Music foram avassaladores quando surgiram🫥 E pensar que Opera vendia nos idos do século xx
What is Tenchno-pop??
Techno-pop is a blend of electronic music and pop elements, popular in the 80s, with artists like Kraftwerk influencing the style.
give me that old time rock and roll
20 years and counting!
Need to bring dubstep back up higher…. k pop, indie rock, and reggaeton over that is wild ☠️
It'd be interesting to see these without inflation.
Even that wouldn't tell the whole story. The listening population has grown a lot in the last 100 years. You have to correct for that as well.
Is there a meaning for the different colors?
I dont get why there is a difference on Pop Rock/Indie Rock and Alternative Rock. All these genres are often so close to each other.
Obviously, eminem, that made hip huge worldwide
The tape player is running backwards.
curious about the definition of punk as it rides so high for a while
Listen to the music that you like. Listen to other types of music sometimes. Stay away from bad music or bad artists. Play good music when children are in the house or car. Some children are using swear words in their first year of school because stupid parents play hip hop at home.
Eminem and 50 took rap to no 1 in 2002,
Weezy And nicki continued,
And now kendrick and drake still keeps it at no 1.
Don’t forget Jay-Z, he’s been shaping rap’s #1 status through all these eras.
@@DataIsBeautifulOfficialhe may have had number one's but nothing in sales in comparison to Ems albums and 50s first 2 albums.
Honestly this feels kind of skewed. I would have put the subgenres of Rock, Latin and Techno with the main genres. Makes it seem like they are dead compared to the other genres when they're clearly not. There are definitely subgenres for Country, R&B and Rap too. Disclaimer: I'm not biased towards a specific genre I listen to all kinds of music lol.
And people wonder why I hate mainstream music.
I had no idea techno was still around lol 3rd in 2024, wire I thought it died off in the 2010s. The late 90s were absolute bangers though at the time, clubbing.
It is def many genres lumped into one. Pop, electro pop, synth pop. Because techo as its own isn't really a thing on the radio anymore.
country ,pop rock❤❤❤❤❤
What kind of punk bands were so big that Punk is on top 5 the last 15 years?
Surprised to see no shift in the 1960s.
Кантри будет жить вечно!
WHERE WAS THE BIG BAND ERA MUSIC, HARD ROCK, HEAVY METAL, THRASH, PSYCHEDELIC, SOUTHERN ROCK, SOFT ROCK, UNDERGROUND, AND MANY MORE, A LOT OF TYPES WERE EXCLUDED FOR SOME REASON
How did you miss hard rock? it was climbing the chart from about 1969 until it was #3 in 1988 and went into a free fall off the chart by the mid 90's....did you even watch the video?
Why are you yelling?
one word: subgenres
"Classic Rock" in 1961?
Where is Grunge?
@@FRN2013grunge is probably in punk, alternative, or mixed between the two depending on the band
@@dolorsitametconsectur no, grunge sounds quite different than punk (which has a faster beat) or alternative (which is lighter).
@@FRN2013 I realize, but plenty of these genres were seemingly merged into one & some seemingly were arbitrarily cut. Metal also seems to have been subsumed into hard rock, so I’m just basing my guess off the most similar genres.
@@dolorsitametconsectur Yes, blending, merging, and subsuming have happened.
Did jungle not make the top list at any point?😭
Lol
Yea what about Jungle and DnB
ALL MUSIC COME FROM THE BLUES....
i do love me some deep house
Punk ain't dead yet
