what is popular

there are a lot of different explanations for the word popular it can be used to describe many things for example culture, food and a person but in terms of music , popular music is any genre of music having wide appeal (but usually only for a short time). Certain things are only classed as popular if they are liked by a lot of people. If we talk about popular culture, popular music is class as a popular item of popular culture but it is also classed as low culture because it isn’t part of high culture. Even though it is popular doesn’t mean it is the best type of music it is just the music that has been excluded from the elite class and left for anyone to enjoy
