1980's: Music from 70's vs. Music from the 80's

As we enter a whole different decade music begins to morph and change. We go from the decades that birthed Rock n Roll, punk and disco to the decade where rap crossed into the mainstream. Music in this generation began to use more synthesized pop. The 1980's was also known for Madona who brought a whole new fashion statement to teenage girls. Music was more powerful just in terms of lyrics. In Michael Jackson's Billy Jean it tells quite a story about himself and his fame as oppose to most of the song lyrics from the 70's that consisted drug experiences. The 1980's was great for music it opened up a new genre of music at the end of the decade, rap, and MTV was brought to life as well bringing the best songs on television. What I didn't like about the 80's was Modona. I'm not a big fan of her because the influence she bring upon female adolescents.I'm not a fan of her making girls change into something their not.She made the girls become quite more independent. Not only that but Modonnas lyrics just make me awkward. I can't stand two minutes of her singing. Also country kind of sucked in the decade. It was not popular at all and when we listened to the music in class I couldn't stand the southern voices and  and the lyrics. The lyrics I just couldn't connect with personally.
