Another reason artists may be releasing shorter songs is for streaming royalties. A 2-minute song on repeat earns twice as much money as a 4-minute song on repeat. If you can write a great, short song that makes people want to listen again and again, you're going to earn more money than you would on a longer version.

Few years ago, a famous guitarist is asked what the biggest different in music listener now and then. His answer is nowadays people are always busy. Not with their job or family responsibility but with their phone and social media. People no longer has time to sit, listen, and appreciate song. They always do something while song is played in the background. Sad but true.

guitar is coming back ! Hell yeah!

I work in a music store, and we get lots of kids coming in learning to play an instrument. Guitar, piano and drums are the most common, but we also get students for woodwinds, brass, and strings well. It's really nice to see actual musicianship on the rise.

I told my wife mid last year that I felt the pendulum was swinging back towards Rock music again. It just felt that way with some really good new Rock bands and the strength of catalogs from 'Classic' artists.
-
I'm not sure if I could ever say music could change for the "better" or "worse". What I can hope for is that the music ends up serving its generations well in improving people's lives generally.
-
Guitar music is on the rise. Ive been playing in cover bands many years and more young people are digging us old guys.

The point is JUST having fun doing something beautiful ❤❤❤❤

Now my future songwriting plan is complete: 6-minute songs, piano, profanity all over the place! Anything to not end up on pop charts! (I'll have to learn piano, though, I already know how to swear.)
-
As music creators and songwriters I think it’s important to buck the trends. Be trend setters not followers. But more importantly, be 100% you. It’s the authenticity of the artist that truly connects to the audience.
-
Incredibly fascinating subject! As a guitar player and songwriter who dabbles mostly in punk, garage, and grunge, I'm heartened by these trends!
-
Finally! I've grown up listening to hip hop, when people crafted songs and stories that brought us into unique new perspectives, but this new version of hip hop is destructive and self sabotaging.

Bring back the horns! Tower of Power, Chicago...🎺🎺🎺🎺🎺🎺🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷

Music, and music trends have changed sooo much. Of course, I'm a 65 year old professional musician who is stuck in the 60s-80s. Things you never hear anymore, or are pretty hard to come by on the radio (again, I'm old school in how I access music): instrumentals, guitar solos, TV theme songs that become hits, sax solos, horn sections. I miss them all.

Modern country is just rock music with a slight twang
-
Thank you! I am a songwriter, and this truly helps, and I agree - the internet has greatly impacted songs- in spite of that, I strive to be a bit more conscious of the songs them selves, and go from there-
-
Hip-hop falling back down to earth is going to benefit hip-hop the most. It was so oversaturated. Sincerely I think this is good news for hip hop as one of the few Rick viewers who spins kendrick as much as i spin zepplin (not blizzard of oz, though, still my fav).
-
I think its fair to say that corporate music jumped the shark years ago. Indie is the real scene people ought to be paying attention to. There is so much amazing music to be discovered there.
-
Music is changing the same way anything changes: we are sick of the trend, and we change it by innovating new stuff or going back to the past. And that cycle repeats. Nothing is forever. It's really that simple.
-
Yes. Love this information. Keep it going Rick!
