Genre In Music

A music genre is a conventional category that identifies some piece of music that belongs to a shared tradition or set of conventions. It is to be distinguished from musical form and musical style, although in practice these terms are sometimes used interchangeably.
There are different types of genre but i will only talk about the 4 that i really like.
- Grime
- Jazz
- Drill
- Gospel

Grime- Grime genre originally comes from the streets from East London and gone around to the whole of England as a popular way of music it has turned into a culture however the police are trying to cut down the culture of grime music because of the violence that comes from it, there have been a number of deaths that have come from Music videos of Grime music making it a moral panic for society.
An Example of Grime Music Video
These Are From The Streets Of Ilford, Los Ft Ace- How Many Man 

Jazz- Jazz is a type of of music black African american origin which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century characterised by improvisation, syncopation and usually a regular forceful rhythm. Brass and woodwind instruments and piano are usually associated with Jazz although a guitar and occasionally a violin is used, styles include Dixieland, swing, bebop and free jazz

Drill- Drill music is originally from the streets of Chicago which the people there call "Chiraq" because the death rate there is more than the death rate in Iraq which is nothing to be proud off but they see it as a big achievement so they turn their words into violent rap talking about the people they have killed and the so called "snitches" in other areas of Chicago however the States is having the same problem as the UK are the violence are increasing in a vast manner, more deaths and homicides have increased since Drill music stared in Chicago

Gospel - Gospel music is now a popularised form of impassioned rhythmic, spiritual music rooted in the solo and responsive church singing of rural blacks in the American South, central to the development of rhythm and blues and of soul music
