There is an opinion that contemporary musicians influence youngsters intensively through their songs, while others claim that the effect of their music is positive. Personally, I think that modern music trends affect teenagers harmfully.
To begin with, lyrics of modern songs create a false reality for their listeners, which are mostly teenagers, who are willing to believe that everything their favourite singer speaks about is true. This makes teenagers feel anxious about their personalities.
Furthermore, modern songs’ structure has become simpler, easier to memorise, which makes the brain work less creative, as it has been given only the simplest tunes to analyse. However, there is another opinion. The opponents of my point of view believe that modern music is fruitful for modern youngsters because it relaxes them and gives positive emotions.
Despite my respect for this point of view, I cannot agree with it. Any leisure activity should bring not only joy but also benefit youngsters’ intelligent development. Taking everything into account, I would like to state that modern music has a negative effect on young people due to the fact that it promotes false values and does not bring any benefits.
