Week 6

I was driving home from lecture, sitting in traffic, as I look around I noticed a restaurant called Giraffe, it advertised, “World Music”! I started to asked myself world music really can be any form of music. It is considered to be global.
“,,,Popular music essentially becomes established as the accepted standard global template”.

So in order to become Global/ World music it is believed that the most successful ones are usually sang in English and and that every song at some point would have been in the local music category.

World music should have a wide range of audiences, in which must people would have heard of i.e. The Beatles.

  1. You seem to have confused the idea of global music with the umbrella term world music and as such you haven't really managed to answer the question effectively.
