- Timeline history of the most popular music genres and styles from 1910 to 2019. Historical popularity is based on worldwide vinyl and CD records release frequencies for specific genre adjusted to recent years music charts. Numbers are relative to each other to reflect popularity change throughout the years (it's not a percentage). I've tried to use sub-genres in most cases to present as much as possible diversity.
Hat tip to Denis Safiullin, who alerted me to this idea.

It’d be nice if the background music style changed according to the number one in the graphic
It would be a chaotic mess in certain years
It’s what I was thinking as well. I’ll make it my next project during low season. I think a mix would be awesome as music changes genres.
@@JoshTorresDJ Would work well if the video was made longer which would mean that there would be more time for different music changes
Acc maybe it could work with current duration
It would be laborious
Watching these videos is like watching a horse race.

Nice job splitting up rock into about 10 different genres
i was wondering same thing, but they split up jazz, I am also trying to figure out how Soul and R&B are different. I wish they overlayed the hottest song on the bar of each category.
Lol. I think there might be more than ten different genres.
and
@@Mercenary-1914 Soul can be loud and upbeat, but usually R&B has a sad/negative feeling to it.
@@theatticaddict It i the first time am hearing that. How would you classify country music?
I was thinking a little more rock in the 70s, heavy metal 80s, grunge in the 90s but they got the hip-hop right in the late 90s into the 2000s.
Someone pointed out to me this was worldwide, and not just the USA. Then this made more sense. House was so popular in Latin America in the 90s for example that it overtook basically the rest of the world music wise.
@@marks2807 That is make sense. Imho almost everyone in exUSSR and Russia below 25 y.o. listen rock/hard rock at late 80x (and many of them listen metal of course). I'm from late 80x and there is no chance to find a man who don't like for example Queen this time. But we all not count cause we don't really pay any license. Only Pirate Yarrrr!!!!
I thought 80s was pop. Madonna, Michael Jackson, Cyndi Lauper many others? No?
The 70s was accurate I believe. Disco was huge in the 70s
1969: I’m sure all these genres will still be popular next year!
1970: DID SOMEONE SAY DISCO
Stu
Hahahahahaha. This is funny 😁
DISCO DISCO GOOD!
BURN BABY BURN!
That's weird actually because Disco wasn't even around by 1970 and wasn't a mainstream force until 1974.

If you include all types of rock music into one like Classic ,punk ,hard, heavy metal, pop rock, indie,alternative,etc, rock music is the most popular by far over the years since 1954.
HOUSE music would STILL be #1 since 1990 ...... HOUSE, Electro, Techno, Tech House, Deep House, etc ......
Idk, what if you merged all the electronic music together ?
Metal is metal, it's not rock music. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know shit about metal.
@@flybeep1661 he's trying soooo hard
I dunno.....I just don't feel that The Beatles and Marylin Manson should be in the same genre.
It's fascinating how Disco rised and felt so quickly.
It was from 1973 to early 80's, not so bad.
And actually it happened more quickly than the video suggests. It would only appear in that list from 1974 to 1981, and would only be at the top from late 1977 to mid 1979
Ended with Off the Wall, I think
rose🌹and fell
@@daredevil6145 by the time Off The Wall was at the top (latter months of 1979), the disco genre as a whole was already falling off the charts, but it was still struggling to the point of having some songs that managed to become hits between the end of 1979 and 1982, especially in the clubs, where it was still strong.
Its interesting to see how country music becomes popular during the wars
America........ Wait what
And hindustani was popular whenever a new popular movement started in india against the the British
Country music more merican. I think that people became patriots durimg wars amd tjats why they listem to ir

Which is scary because it's creeping back up!
1915
Opera: nobody can stop me
Country: hold my yee haw
1915
Opera: nobody can stop me
Rap: hold my gold chain
I steal it uwu
@XD张景荣 I agree with you, rap in the 90s was another story, the evolution of the genre has brought an unpleasant commercialization of the genre, but mostly the experimentation of the genre by so many artistic currents, has made that the movement could be divided into many different categories among them. I know very well that the opera and the rap were not born the same year, but in a few years compared to those of the country, it created three times the positive emotions and works of art.
Sorry for my awful english ahah
Opera: nobooooooooooooooooooooooooo
@@haxemoriginale yeah but 80s hip hop is where it all starded like like run dmc public enemy nwa etc
I love how they split Rock and Roll into about ten different categories, and then still include Rock and Roll
Rock and roll was an offshoot of R&B too
@@melregissings Other way around
Seriously. I mean “classic rock” apparently entered the equation in 1966!🙄
@@andrewjay2340 Um, no. Watch the video again. Joe Turner was on the radio long before Elvis.
Rock and Roll refers to the early and late 50's stuff, which is completely different from the other Rock genres listed. Rock and Rock and Roll are different genres entirely, so Rock and Roll being on there as a standalone genre is still correct.
Soul rebranded and came back on the charts as R&B. Dance rebranded and came back on the charts as techno and dance. I am suprised Reggae never top the chart.
i didnt know that about soul im glad you mentioned that
But R&B always existed since the 1940s
Soul new sound attracted more listeners away from R&B as R&B did to Jazz. R&B was also affected by the new sound of Rock N Roll.
@@silvershadow8405 That's actually "rythm and blues"-the derivative of blues and jazz that gave birth to rock, soul, disco, and basically all of modern pop music. 90s R&B (which is just called r&b, not rythm and blues) was a derivative of soul.
The person that made this video probably doesn't understand this.

Why am I announcing everything in my head like I’m a referee
RandomPineapple wow I just realised I’m doing exactly this
a referee? you mean commentator
I announce it to myself like a horse racing broadcaster.
Omg wtf me too
I thought I was the only weird one omg
I found it amazing how the further the timeline moved toward current day, the less movement there was on the chart. It looks like we went from a lot of innovation to a lot less innovation over time.
This is a really interesting observation! Perhaps it has to do with mass marketing and the internet - maybe they make whatever's hot stay hot for longer
maybe the phonographic technology/industry had to do with that. It made genres "set in stone" and their languages a cliché in which a new generation is 'culturized'. So maybe new we're seeing more actualizations and fusions of those languages rather than born of radically new ones.
I wonder if a lot of it has to do with streaming music. Instead of record labels and MTV looking for the latest thing, we get music apps that make recommendations based on previous likes.
Top comment! So true - I really think there is a lack of great new musical art like we didn't see new genres at all the last ten years to be honest. Or maybe we already have seen every music possible.
Agree
I love what you're doing here. Just love it! Keep it up.
The 30s be like: "Ya like jazz?"
Lol damn you beat me to it 😂😂😂
I was thinking that In my head

Sorry guys, had to re-upload this. Missed some data dumps. Thanks to all people who helped and pointed this out in the comments.
Fixed now, enjoy!
Can you tell me what is this music?
I really enjoy your channel :)
Good Job👍🏼
how do you get your data ??
You forgot rap in the 1st version
How could there have been classic rock in the 60"s?!
There is a lot bullshit going on here.
No metal at all while actually it was pretty popular in the '80s tho that depend how hard you were slicing it into subgenres.
I noticed that too and it didn't make sense initially but if you rewatch, the first rock genre is "rock and roll." As the rock and roll numbers go down the classic rock gains numbers so it was just a shift to from rock and roll to classic rock. Classic rock is meaningless though since rock from 90s and early 2000s is now considered "classic" and they are played on the classical rock radio stations.
@@gigatrihard8607 I think they put metal in the hard rock category.
@@Mike-mc3sh Which is total nonsense. The second half was dominated by thrash metal, so they are saying thrash metal is hard rock then? Bullshit.
@@Mike-mc3sh naw metal is just not popular, it's fringe.
Note from a electronic music geek: The "Electro" of the 80's and the "Electro" of the 00's and onward are actually not the same genre. The 80's electro (example Afrika Bambaataa & Soulsonic Force - Planet Rock) has breakbeat rhythms, and is related to Hip-hop and Electro Funk (ex: George Clinton's style of funk music), whereas the "new electro" of the mid 00's and the present is a genre that uses four on the floor rhythms and is essentially a sub-genre of house music. It's just house with grittier synths.
Same applies on Techno.
There's a techno in the early 90's was what we heard in Mortal Kombat. Or Paragliders, L.S.G etc.
Then it got influenced by trance and house.
The late 90's techno is more like house, like Mauro Picotto and others.
I still prefer the old style techno tho.
Yeah, let's split Rock in 10 music styles so it's impossible to see ho big it was from 60's to 00's
Like ACTUALLY
Honestly the only necessary genres of rock and roll to show would be punk rock and heavy metal but nah they gotta throw every subgenre in there
Same for edm. If techno, house and electro are placed under one proper category named edm, it would be at the top of the list.
3:27
Soul = Funk = R&B
WTF?!
@@naywahn disco came from funk, funk came from soul, etc
METAL: "I am not gonna be ignoooooored by you!!!"
Bro I mean the metal revolution in the 80s
This chart is correct. Metal is right where it supposed to be - Not on charts :D (I am a metalhead ;D)
@@Weallsuckequally probably included under hard rock
Where's my goregrind smh
GRUNGE: ME TOO!
For all the confused people: House is the most popular electronic music. House is a massive genre with all sorts of subgenres, but together just imagine the most popular DJs: Avicii, Alesso, Sam Feldt, DJ Snake, etc. The reason why you don't recognize it is because the media labels it just as EDM or Dance-Pop.
David Guetta and Calvin Harris too. Those guys are massive and are everywhere on the radio but the majority don't know it's house
Thank you for the video though. It's so interesting seeing the evolution of music. 👍

Country in 2019: I'm back in the Old Town Road.
You just judge it on the new pop sounds it has lately. As with Jazz it's a true American art form and it's older stuff has the soul that is noticably lacking in modern day country.
Did you notice the demand for country rises mainly in times of war.
@@seantankosic-kelly1456 yeah, I've got the same observation
@@chadduffney4361 This is so true... Kristofferson, Nelson, The Hag, Cash, those were the real Country

Ya grunge definitely ran the 90s hard to believe it's not on there. That and metal in the mid to late 80s as well as nu-metal/nu-rock "rap metal" in the late 90s early 2000s. Crazy. Country was huge for such a long time
Or rather waiting for the 80's
Pop Rock, Indie Rock, alternative rock, classic, and so on. Look like they just split it into groups.
They did so too with the other genres as well. House and Techno are all EDM subgenres.But they didn't for others like Folk and Country and sometimes mixed them up with Jazz and bebop (jazz subgenre), and cool jazz (jazz subgenre) in the same chart.

They cut Rock music up 12 different ways.
well because that's how rock music really is honestly. listen to elvis, pink floyd, and black flag. more differences than similarities tbh but their all the same base genre.
Well, I respectfully disagree. I believe there are far more similarities than differences. All three of the bands you mentioned are all clearly Rock music in substance, style and soul. Why the ad nauseam slicing, dicing?
Rock, more or less, became atomized from mid 70s onwards only and often later than that did the tedious classifications start. Jeez there was a time when it was either soft rock or hard rock. Now even elements of soft rock is oddly called yacht rock. Wtf?
Probably for bullshit marketing reasons in order to make more money and also to control unified culture by creating infinitesimal subcultures, sub genres. Which is NOT what a Rock is about.

But since it's presumably based on *sales* it is naturally skewed to people who could buy things (records, CDs) and who had the equipment to play such things, which itself changed over the decades. I don't know if there is any additional data (like radio playlists) to supplement the chart. And there's no record of what people were singing in churches, bars and their own parlours.
Great work 👏 ( house music , 1 ❤)
Thanks ✌️

Country: Yall thought I was gone huh.
Rock and Roll: I guess I have too do all the work from here
I don't understand how metal can't be on this list when the 5th highest attended concert in human history was a metal/hard rock concert.
It likely doesn't account streams or concerts. Just albums/vinyl/records sold.
Yeah, Metal fans might be more likely to go to concerts than other fans.
Also, they may just count Metal as part of hard rock or something.
About the 5th most attended concert: It was Metallica in Moscow, Russia (USSR) with 1.3 million attendants at once. The audio from the concert could be heard from 6 miles away.
Other acts: Pantera, AC/DC, i forgot maybe motley crue?, and a local band
Morgan Aubin I honestly believe this guy put metal along with punk, since punk was never as popular as metal lol
@@xxEzraBxxx which is rock and is on the list? Metal is that retarded demonic screaming,no?
I'm surprised that electric blues and boogie never made a blip in the top 11. Also surprised that any rock other than post-rock made it in after about 2004. And I had thought there was something of a jazz scene in the 1970's, but I guess not very big outside of Chicago and NYC. Interesting data. Good work.
Wow didn't expect punk to be the second most popular music style of 2012. Interesting how post-punk was much more popular than the 'original' punk of the mid 1970's
It gets to 1997 and i'm thinking, "ok, that's now".
And then I remember THAT WAS 22 YEARS AGO!!!
Oh man, at that time there was downtempo, a fucking good genre that needs to be on the trend again
Happens to me with 2009
you must be 40 like me lol :)
Out of all of the graphs they have done, this one seems like it is actually wrong
Yes
Only in the last years, cuz there isn't pop
@@fable_enthusiast you do no that pop isn't music its whatever is popular right now hip hop is the most popular so its pop music Michael jackson king of pop for his time was disco you get it.
@@jamalwalker Even though you're correct, one could argue that pop music, over the decades, has built and sustained a particular singularity in its craftsmanship that's so identifiable and categorical that the songs which share these patterns (3 verse-chorus form structure, bubblegum premise/tone, the beloved "I-V-vi-IV" chord progression, elementary yet catchy hooks, etc.) are automatically labeled as such regardless of whether they're actually popular or not.
Though pop is still just short for popular music at the end of the day, pop music seemed to have developed into something much more than that a long time ago.
@@isaiahwillis6115 I feel like fans of each genre did that on there own to discredit artist they don't like
This list is even crazier when you think about the specific artists that impacted it.
I love this channel, but i have a question .. what was considered Classic Rock in the 60s ?
Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones etc

Music: *exists*
Country: YOU YEE'D YER LAST HAW
Weird how R&B is ranked so high in the later 2010s, but no mention in the 90s? R&B was experiencing a PEAK in the 90s, this is how Hip Hop crossed over through R&B.
I was thinking the same. The swing beat era and R&B dominated the charts.
I was expecting rap to be higher in the early 90s
Nope. It was even near non existent outside of the US. This chart pretty fares well with the global scene
@@Hehehe-hf7rq so you’re saying country. A very distinct American genre was popular worldwide?
@@whiteipod2000 John Denvers albums were hugely popular outside the US
Where does the data come from? Based on what chart?
"A broad term, the word "chanson" literally means "song" in French and can thus less commonly refers to a variety of (usually secular) French genres throughout history."
Everyone is talking about the rise of R&B and I'm still trying to figure out what military music is
th-cam.com/video/EY053NLdEA0/w-d-xo.html
They’re kind of like marches. Think John Philip Sousa or Gustav Holst. At least that’s what I’m assuming they are
What the funk is r&b? Tell me about any r&b artists not necessarily modern I just can't understand that the music genre I never heard is that popular
Military music is very common in Arab countries
Somethin'123 r&b stands for rhythm and blues and is my favorite genre 😊
"Punk" the fourth most popular genre in 2019? Uuhm, what? Where do you hear Punk? Or what do you consider Punk?
Punk rap
BeardedButtCrack Punk rock
I’m guessing people like billy eilish?
Punk for me is Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedy's, Black Flag and Bad Brains. Also bands like Sum 41, Blink 182, Green Day and Fall Out Boy, all though they are Pop Punk, I get that you might say just Punk. But when do you hear bands like any of those I mentioned in popular music culture? Most bands popular in the Rock scene today are bands like Foo Fighters, Rammstein and 5FDP (and other metalcore bands), some bands like Royal Blood and Greta Van Fleet do get alot of recognition too, but I not hear alot of Punk, only in the Underground and Indie/Local scenes.
Agree. I was left curious seeing punk there. There are no notable "hardcore punk/punk rock" artists until like the late 2000s. All I know today are pop-punk groups which are neither popular to make it to the 4th place.
I like how the background music builds up as jazz is taking over in the early '30s
This presentation looks intuitively right. I am wondering what does popular mean in this context? Certain revenue streams? Surveys? What exactly?
Eminem: 'its over nobody listens to Techno'
Techno 2k19: Hold my beer B)
yhinte26 i was singing that hahaha
Same😂
More like hold my molly bro 😂
Pretty sure he meant edm in general and not techno
Nico P. Its a bar from Eminem’s “Without Me”
Grunge: "Am I a joke to you?"
I think that fit under the alternative rock category probably
Brett Kavanaugh 90s alt rock. Like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc.
Surprissely hair metal or metal didn't appear.
i thought you were dead abbachio
I don't like That styles
Country music in the beginning be like: well that escalated quickly
Dear Mr. @Data Is Beautiful is there a way to possibly access the rat data?
