How The Old School Feels About The New School
The old school is a term used for music listeners before the pre-hip-hop days of rap music. While most of the older generation encourages creativity, many frown on the current style of music as harsh.
The loud, electric and synthesized musical instruments of an artist whose lyrics are muddled and unrecognizable are not acceptable to many listeners of yesteryear. The old school listener will often look upon today’s style of music as a form of screaming lyrics with loud ear-splitting instruments. They are accustomed to listening to music with melody and clarity of voice that is kept within a reasonable tone.
The current style of popular rock music has created a wide gulf of acceptance between the older generation and the young listener of today.
With the birth of Rock and Roll, the old school of the day was offended by the style of music by many notable musicians and vocalist: Elvis Presley, Chubby Checker, Little Richard and other popular singers during this era faced the same obstacles musicians face today.
.What is acceptable by today’s generation, will result in many rejecting a future form of music. With each passing generation, the listener will either embrace or reject the current musical style.
