Music Facts: Pop
Modern pop music originated in the United States and United Kingdom in the mid-'50s.
Pop songs are usually short. While pop borrows heavily from other genres, it tends to follow a verse-chorus song structure and features repeated choruses and hooks.
Recent pop GRAMMY winners include Harry Styles, Lizzo, Lady Gaga, and Ed Sheeran.
