Final Project Milestone- Music.
The argument focuses on popular culture and how the artefacts of popular culture have changed society’s values. One of the valuable artefacts to consider in popular culture is music which for quite a while is considered a tool of information. Music is mainly viewed from the perspective of the entertainment forgetting in the entertainment there can be the passing of the message with ease because of the large number of people that can be reached in the short or first listening. Music and other artefacts like movies and social media have contributed to the global transformation of the globe into the American way of life. The music that is passed across the globe has kept the other people across the globe trying to emulate the way the people in the American popular culture are singing or carrying out themselves while singing (Crothers, 2021).
There have been considerate reporting of the occurrences of road accidents which have been attributed to the popular culture being that some of the songs are propelling or spreading violence (Brodsky et al.2018). Some of the kinds of music that are being listened to by the drivers are considered very violent hence forcing most of the lovers of the artefact to promote insecurity to themselves and other people. The amount of the information that can be passed by the usage of music is so big and being that the rhythms and rhyme make listening to the beats pleasing to the ears making it easy to pass both good and violent songs easy. Most specifically, we look at aversive music styles and songs with violent lyrics.
The accidents attributed to the pop culture with aggressive lyrics demonstrate that energetic music boosted excitement resulting in decreased lateral control. But all the same look at the perspective of the music providing excitement that can also provide the comfort to allow for focusing on the road while driving to ensure safety is achieved. Music is seen to trigger emotions hence its soothing effect also provides the value of healing the society from the bondage of pains like heartbreaks and social disturbances hence the advisory effect of the popular culture cannot be ignored. When soothing a problem in society is the beginning of solving the problem providing the psychological healing that is required by the psychiatrist.
