Some differences took place between 1970's and 1980's music. An alteration has needed to embed some new genre. The rock or merely rock music is a contemporary musical genre aimed to encompass each of the various derivative genres of rock and roll. Usually interpreted, among many other instruments are added occasionally, with guitar, drums, and bass. Many styles of the genre also use keyboard instruments, for example, saxophone, piano, Synthesizers. This platform usually has a strong obstacle, and mostly focuses on guitar, electric and acoustic. The primitive rock is derived from a lot of sources, for starters blues, rhythm and blues and country, traditional pop, jazz and folk arts. But in 1980s, some new style had come and took place in the industry. Pop, hip-hop/Rap, New wave, Metal, Speed/Thrash metal. Madonna, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Debbie Gibson, Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Grandmaster Flash, Africa Bambaata, Aretha Franklin, Phill Collins, Devo, Scorpions, Europe, Guns n' Roses, Skid Row, Metallica, Anthrax, Ratt, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne and many other talented artist work for establishing those genres.
At that time MTV (Music television) played a remarkable role to
make them all in vogue. MTV was the first TV channel that shows on air
exclusive music video. Making the
video trend has started after that. And the world greeting this platform of
entertainment spontaneously. To keep in touch MTV start to show music videos
24hrs everyday. This trend has apparently changed the scene. Many legendary
musicians come out in the industry. The innovative concept created a new breed
of rock star.
