POP
Pop music is music charted by the number or sales, plays, etc., that the work receives. It is not a particular genre or style of music, simply that which is the most popular for the tracked period of time. Most commercial music of any genre is composed with deliberate intent to appeal to the majority of its contemporaries, but, unless extremely popular in its own genre, it must to appeal to a wider audience to appear on the Pop charts.

Originated back in England during the 1950's - "In contrast to genres with clear origins and a traceable evolution, pop developed, and continues to expand, as a haphazard merging of styles. Pop is an amalgam of successive fashions, of elements of many differing styles that have been successful over the years and have ended up incorporated into the genre."
Recent history: Pop became truly international in the nineties, with hits coming from diverse and distant locations. Female singers have had a big influence on the pop music in the first decade of the twentieth century, with soulful ballads, hip hop pieces and dance tracks
